The Mushkin kit increased scores and frames per second across the board out scoring both the Patriot and Corsair kits by a significant margin. 3DMark 05 showed the highest increase with over 1500 points difference. 3D05 is however becoming dated by todays standards and can throw up some curious results that differ greatly from run to run.
