Test 7: Synthetic benchmarks
We also tested the RX 470 and its rivals using 3DMark’s highly respected DX11 Fire Strike synthetic benchmark, which runs at 1080p, as well as its brand-new Time Spy benchmark, which tests DirectX 12 performance at 2560x1440 resolution.
The Sapphire Nitro RX 460’s persistent clock speed pays off here, giving the card a decent lead over the XFX Radeon RX 460. Then again, you saw what that amounts to in the real world—mostly just a frame or two in real games.
