Here we present frame rate figures for each graphics card, averaged across all 11 games on test today. These figures can disguise significant variations in performance from game to game, but provide a useful overview of the sort of performance you can expect at each resolution tested.

Based on the 11 games we looked at, it's no surprise to see the Gaming X Trio coming out as the overall performance leader, regardless of the resolution tested. It does show its biggest gains at 1440p and 4K, though, where it is on average 4% faster than the Nvidia Founders Edition.
