Gaming Performance - Part 1
Contents
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is an action RPG with FPS elements, launched in August 2016, that uses the Dawn engine, being compatible with DirectX 12. We tested it using the benchmark included in the game, with DirectX 12 enabled, graphic options “very high” and MSAA 4x.
The results below, in Full HD and 4K, are expressed in frames per second.
On Deus Ex: Mankind Divided in Full HD, the GeForce GTX 1080 FE was 68% faster than the GeForce GTX 1060 FE and 50% faster than the Radeon R9 390.
On 4K, the GeForce GTX 1080 FE was 86% faster than the GeForce GTX 1060 FE and 44% faster than the Radeon R9 390.
Doom
Doom is an FPS/horror/sci-fi game launched in May 2016, that used the id Tech 6 engine. We tested the performance in this game, with the API OpenGL with quality options “high” and FXAA on, measuring the framerate with FRAPS three times.
The results below are expressed in fps and they are the mean between the three collected results.
On the Doom test with Full HD, the GeForce GTX 1080 FE was 8% faster than the GeForce GTX 1060 FE and 60% faster than the Radeon R9 390.
On 4K resolution, the GeForce GTX 1080 FE was 71% faster than the GeForce GTX 1060 FE and 114% faster than the Radeon R9 390.
Dying Light
Dying Light is an open-world horror game launched in January 2015, using the Chrome Engine 6. We tested the performance at this game with all quality options at the maximum, measuring three times the frame rate using FRAPS.
The results below are expressed in fps and they are the mean between the three collected results.
On the Full HD benchmark, the GeForce GTX 1080 FE was 69% faster than the GeForce GTX 1060 FE and 114% faster than the Radeon R9 390.
On 4K, the GeForce GTX 1080 FE was 68% faster than the GeForce GTX 1060 FE and 79% faster than the Radeon R9 390.
Grand Theft Auto V
Grand Theft Auto V, or simply GTA V, is a open-world action game released for PCs in April of 2015 and uses the RAGE engine. In order to measure the performance on this game, we ran the performance test of the game (the plane portion), measuring the frame rate with FRAPS. We ran GTA V with image quality set as “very high” and MSAA as 2x.
The results below are expressed in frames per second.
On GTA V, with Full HD, the GeForce GTX 1080 FE was 51% faster than the GeForce GTX 1060 FE and 81% faster than the Radeon R9 390.
With 4K resolution, the GeForce GTX 1080 FE was 73% faster than the GeForce GTX 1060 FE and 96% faster than the Radeon R9 390.
