Synthetic Benchmarks

To start off our testing I ran the R9 380 ITX through a few synthetic benchmarks to get a feel for how the card compares to other cards. For comparison I pulled the R9 285 ITX out of our Lunchbox 3 and retested it as well. Using 3DMark the 38 ITX came in just below the GTX 780 in the performance setting. This landed the card up at the top slightly above the other R9 380’s that I have tested in the past. This wasn’t far off from the R9 285 ITX but that gap much larger when moving to the extreme and ultra tests that test inn 1440p and 4k. The extra clock speed helped in the performance test but it was the 4 gigs of vRAM that really made a difference at higher resolutions. The results from the Unigine Valley Benchmark were similar with the 380 ITX 4GB pulling and average 38.1 FPS, just below the 40 FPS of the R9 380X.
