28nm 11 game graphics horizontal evaluation

Cards are more than obvious! In fact, this topic should be completed and released after the listing of the GTX 980 Ti. A delay caused by Ah Cai's procrastination led to the release of the new card.

Well, until today, the new card GTX 1070 has been released, 1080 has been available, I will get a new card within 2 weeks, and the R9 480 has been released today.


The long 28nm era is like the TBC that has been working for three years at the Sunwell. It feels like it has never stopped. After four years of waiting, the day is finally over.

I think what should be installed (bi) to commemorate this era of death. So come a horizontal 28nm graphics evaluation.


So there will be a mixed PK of 11 graphics cards plus GTX 970x2 SLI, and horizontal testing begins!

From the specification point of view, the GM107 has 640 CUDA cores and 40 texture units. The frequency is 1124MHz, the acceleration frequency is 1202MHz, the memory capacity is 2GB, and the memory frequency is 5400MHz. It is equipped with three interfaces: HDMI, DVI and DisplayPort.

The DVI port supports up to 2560x1600@60Hz refresh rate


HDMI port supports the highest refresh rate


DisplayPort supports up to 4096 x2160@60Hz refresh rate


The heatsink used in the Asus Strix GTX 750 Ti OC graphics card is also semi-passive. The fan can be stopped until the core temperature reaches 65°C. The noise is zero.

Since the 75-watt TDP requires no external power supply, the GTX 750 Ti can be said to be the strongest light-up card in the last two years - later this title was captured by the GTX 950 Special Edition, which also requires no external power supply.


In the eyes of Ah Cai, this is the first discrete video card with real purchasing value. The lower performance of the GT730 and 740 is only enough to kill you with the nuclear attack, and even be humiliated by the Iris 580 nuclear.

There are three reasons to choose Asus Bird of Prey in the thousands of GTX 750 Ti:

1, no external power supply, overclocked version of GTX 750 Ti made by many manufacturers, directly to the 750 biggest advantage to erase. If you want to plug in, buy a GTX 370X or 950 is not finished, the price difference of 100 dollars.

2, Asus this heat pipe with heat, after all, many 750 or even 950 are only aluminum extrusion (aluminum) heat sink.

3, ASUS 3-year warranty.

4, Maxwell fully supports HDMI 3840x2160@60Hz refresh rate for 4K display.

"Batman: Arkham Origins" was created by Rocksteady Studios using the optimized "Unreal" engine. As described in the title of the game, this will be a prequel to the Batman series. When the game focuses on Batman when he is young, he will encounter numerous super villains for the first time.


In addition to the series of stand-alone game mode, this may be the first time for multiplayer online game mode. In cyber warfare mode, players will be able to choose to play the evil roles of Joker or Bane, aiming to kill Batman and Robin.


"Batman: Arkham Origin" game engine supports PhyX physics acceleration. After PhysX acceleration is turned on in the game, the number of frames drops significantly. If you use NVIDIA graphics cards that support PhysX acceleration technology, NVIDIA graphics cards will participate in the computation of the PhysX physics engine; if the user graphics card does not support PhysX acceleration, it will be calculated by the CPU. After PhyX physical effects were enabled on AMD, various graphics cards could not run perfectly, and they would not significantly increase the number of FPS frames as AMD graphics performance was upgraded. In order to compare the AMD/NVIDIA graphics card under the same conditions, the game Benchmark test chose to shut down the PhyX physics uniformly.

Introduction to the game After two generations of the "Crysis" series, "Crysis 3" will aim to achieve the perfect combination of the 1st and 2nd generations, the free Shahe mode and the metropolitan environment that can be vertically combatted. At the same time, the three-generation city is not only a rigid, high-rise building, but a truly urban rain forest with various elements such as jungles, swamps, grasslands, and canyons. In Crysis 3, we will also encounter new Ceph enemies and new weapons, such as the mechanical bow that appeared earlier.
In terms of game engines, Crysis 3 uses the latest CryEngine 3.4 engine development to support more powerful DX11 special effects. Although it has been on the market for 2 years, the hardware requirements for fully-opened special effects are still amazing. By 2015, it will still be a video game crisis level game!

Game Introduction


This is the latest work of the Grand Theft Auto series, produced by Rockstar North and released by Rockstar Games. The game uses the new Thunder engine (RAGE engine). The game story takes Los Angeles, which is based on Los Angeles and its surrounding areas, as Los Angeles and Southern California in the real region. The production unit photographed more than 250,000 related photos and studied population surveys and car sales data to build the world of games.


The Grand Theft Auto series has always been a well-known action adventure game with gangster life as its background. The protagonist can't escape from the underworld. The game elements in the GTA5 will be enhanced, and the more open and free world will be added. The story-driven, task-based gameplay and multiplayer mode will be adopted. The story theme focuses on Southern California, where money never sleeps. This work is the most dynamic and most diversified open world ever, and Grand Theft Auto 5 combines new storytelling and gameplay as players can repeatedly enter the lives of three characters. The story of all the contents together.


The GTA5 shows that it is an A black game optimized for the N card (AMD is true, obviously the host version is one year earlier and is running with the APU!).

Game Introduction

"Wizard 3: Wild Hunting" will be the last of the trilogy series. The story will have a grand finale, but it is not the final work of the "Wizard" series. This game uses the latest REDengine3 engine production, players can explore in a seamless world, using a non-linear plot settings, the overall scale is 30 times the previous work. Together with realistic character settings, fascinating stories, and an open environment where players can freely navigate without having to load, we will take the game experience to a new level, giving players a more realistic experience and completeness. Full sense of substitution.


The game outcome of "Wizard 3" can be roughly divided into three main lines. The player's choice of key nodes in the game will divide the three main lines into 36 different endings. However, don't think this is done. Michal Platkow-Gilewski said that in fact, "Wizard 3" has a vagaries of the game process, players in the game every move will have a slight impact on the direction of the game, and all these effects are eventually reflected through different game outcomes come out.


"Wizard 3" is a very graphic game. Even a high-end graphics card such as the GTX 980 barely feeds it. At the same time, the default A card performance in the game is obviously inferior to that of the N card in the same level. As a game developed using NVIDIA Gameworks technology, it is destined to be more thorough optimization of the N card. Gameworks effects incorporate tools such as PhysX, TXAA, surface subdivision, HBAO+, FlameWorks, and FaceWorks, which greatly simplifies the development process. With Gameworks not developing source code, developers who want to access the source code must be authorized by NVIDIA. As an industry competitor, AMD will never have the opportunity to use the technology provided in Gameworks, and developers of "Wizard 3" have said that they can't optimize the code for AMD graphics cards. It is recommended that A card users have better turn off Gameworks special effects.


When AMD developed a "TressFX" hair enhancement technology, it was amazing in Tomb Raider 9. Now NVIDIA has also developed a "Hairworks" technology, which is also a hair enhancement technology. Using the Hairworks technology provided in the Gameworks development tool, it is this technology that makes A card suffer a lot. The poor performance of the A card in the wizard 3 is due to the poor tessellation performance of the A card. Using the DX11 tessellation can make the GPU memory occupy less space. Therefore, multiple characters can apply hair and hair effects at the same time. In contrast, the N Card Maxwell frame has three times the surface subdivision performance of other graphics cards, especially the "Wizard 3" Hairworks is open to 64x, A card naturally can not afford. For fair comparison of A card and N card, close the Hairworks in the test setup.

Complete comparison of performance


Performance comparison with MSI GTX 960 GAMING performance is 100%. The fps and scores of 25 games are combined to calculate the composite percentage average.


There is no doubt that the big winners in graphics performance are the GTX 970 SLI and the RADEON Pro Duo, and the GTX 980 Ti is almost the same as the GTX 970 SLI, but the GTX 970 is shaved in more than 10 projects with 4K resolution in almost 5 projects. The project's 4K resolution fps is lower than the single digit. This is a unique phenomenon caused by its special 3.5G video short board, and sometimes even under 4K performance is not as good as GTX 960 4G.


RADEON Pro Duo easily defends the dignity of the strongest single card in the world, but will soon face the challenge of GTX 1080.



Power consumption



From the power discussion graphics performance is actually rogue, there is no doubt that the big winners in graphics performance are GTX 970 SLI and RADEON Pro Duo


But power is also their best. Like a stove, the 390X is the third highest power, but the performance is not...



temperature


The last-generation 28nm graphics cards all support accurate frequency-reduction technology, and the threshold of the frequency-reduction gate is at 80 degrees, which makes everyone have a small temperature difference.


The most powerful heat dissipation is actually the RADEON Pro Duo, which is the most powerful, because the unique 120 cold water cooling of the Cooler Premium OEM makes it kill all the air-cooled graphics cards at full load temperature.


The lowest temperature in the air-cooled graphics card is the MSI GTX 960 GAMING. The low power consumption of 120 watts plus the Twin Forz V heatsink is a must.



Value for money


In addition to the graphics performance percentage in addition to Yi Xun network graphics card prices, graphics cards are mostly in thousands, so again 1000


The formula for Avatar's use of cost-effectiveness is as follows: Percentage of Performance / EasyNet Price 1000


Not surprisingly, the first is the ASUS GTX 750 Ti, XFX R9 370X 4G with the next highest price, the third is the XFX 380X and MSI GTX 970 GAMING. Then it was only the dessert card GTX 960 that was less than a year old



Conclusion


After the Yangtze River pushed the waves to push forward, the 28nm graphics card was about to be turned over. The new core of the new generation of mid-end graphics in the 14/16nm process was designed with low memory bandwidth and high energy efficiency. Basically both are a top two, directly beyond the 28nm these predecessors with the same level of dual-card SLI/CF.


Soon Ah Cai will get GTX 1070 and GTX 1080 GAMING to do a new generation of graphics card evaluation, please stay tuned!
