Clock Speeds

When you’ve got two cards up against each other you might expect the GPU Boost 3.0 to struggle to keep the top card as fast as the bottom one because of the extra heat involved. As you can see from our GPUz screenshot though the MSI Gaming X boosts brilliantly on both cards, with the average speed matching up to the peak boost too. Excellent stuff.

We know you’re all eager to see the performance results though, as indeed are we, so enough preamble, let’s get down to some graphs.
