3DMark is a showcase DirectX 11 benchmark designed for todayβs high-performance gaming PCs. It is our [FutureMarkβs] most ambitious and technical benchmark ever, featuring real-time graphics rendered with detail and complexity far beyond what is found in other benchmarks and games today.
We run 3DMark Fire Strike (1080p), Fire Strike Extreme (1440p) and Fire Strike Ultra (4K).
3DMark shows the Palit Super JetStream to be surprisingly close to the Gigabyte Aorus GTX 1080 Ti, despite the large clock speed differences (1671MHz Boost Palit, 1721MHz Boost Gigabyte).
Even though there are clock speed differences on paper, a number of parameters such as Nvidia's GPU Boosting Algorithm and tight power limits mean that the gap always ends up smaller than may be expected.
People around me get 1070/80 and 580/70 and I’m like “My radeon 7850 is just fine” π
I need an upgrade.
This card uses a very good quality 12+2 power phase VRM. It has 6 doubled phases + 2 real memory phases which makes the VRM run cool.
For example the MSI Gaming X 1080ti uses 8 real phases and this spreads the heat on fewer components which generates more hotspots.
Please correct the article, thank you!
7850 isn’t far off a R9 270/X or 370, and slightly faster than an RX 460, and even the 560 for that matter. You’re not really missing out on much except efficiency.
While yes in older titles they are not very different, in newer titles 560 will just fly away because of better and more efficient cgn cores. Also the 4GB of VRAM will make a big deal because I have the 1GB version (stupid decision, to save 30 euros back then) and it shows.
True, iβve a 2GB R9 270X in the pc which is hooked up to the tv, its only a 720p tv which is shite but its good as nothing needs more than the 2GB lol, but in terms of raw power theyre roughly the same, got it overclocked to 1100mhz core and 1500mhz memory while undervolted, runs really cool, friend has an RX 460 for 1080p gaming and cant really say much more except than its got 4GB of vram, though even at stock it runs hotter (suprisingly) and pulls more power?!
AMD needs to make a big step forward, i held out on upgrading in the hopes of vega beating the 1080ti but as soon as the frontier edition dropped i jumped right onto that 1080ti, modded it to remove power target and it sits at 2025mhz 24/7 along with 12ghz on the vram up from 11ghz.
You got this particular card reviewed overclocked to 2025mhz? There is an older version of it, the plain Jetstream one, any ideas how much that one can be overclocked by? I can’t find a proper review for that other card.
I believe you are right. I stand corrected.
