Results: 3D Mark 2011
The latest 3D mark features some heavy DX11 content with plenty of tessellation to make most video cards cry. The Performance preset was used.
Some interesting results come to light here. In fact, things are a bit more compressed than we would expect. The slowest of the bunch is the slightly overclocked R7870 from XFX. Next up is the heavily overclocked N580GTX XE from MSI. As expected, the two HD 7900 series cards take the lead. Something to keep in mind is that the MSI R7970 Lightning clocked at 1070 MHz is right around the speed of a standard GTX 680.
