In Game Benchmarks
In game benchmarks are what we are all here for though right? It’s great that a card can cool well, or perform well in synthetic benchmarks, but we all want the best in game performance possible. Out of the 12 games I tested the Matrix Platinum with only two of them came in with an FPS that was less than 60FPS, that is amazing considering the two that came just a little short required multiple cards in SLI to get 60+FPS for other cards. That put the Matrix Platinum up near the top of our charts when it came to single card performance in nearly every case. Performance fell between the GTX 770 and GTX 780 depending on if the test favored AMD or Nvidia cards and in the case of Hitman: Absolution the Matrix Platinum came in at the top of our charts due to the low performance we have seen with Nvidia SLI in the game (the same with F1 2012). Even with all of our tests running at 1080p with their settings turned all the way up, including AA, the Matrix Platinum wasn’t fazed at all.
