Overall benchmark performance
3DMark Ice Storm GPU
3DMark Ice Storm is the only fully cross-platform benchmark that runs on all devices. It's great for comparing the 3D performance of smartphones, tablets, ultraportable laptops, and old or low-end PCs.
3DMark Cloud Gate GPU
The 3DMark Cloud Gate GPU test is designed for mid-range laptops and home PCs with integrated video graphics. The test uses the DirectX 11 engine, which is limited by Direct3D 10 capabilities. Accordingly, Cloud Gate is best suited for testing modern entry-level systems and legacy DX10-enabled GPUs.
3DMark Fire Strike Score
Fire Strike, Fire Strike Extreme, Fire Strike Ultra. Fire Strike includes two graphics tests, a physics test and a combined test that stresses the CPU and GPU.
3DMark Fire Strike Graphics
3DMark Fire Strike for Graphics Cards helps you determine performance in a state-of-the-art synthetic test that consists of two levels - physical and combined testing.
3DMark 11 Performance GPU
The result of the 3DMark 11 benchmark evaluation supports tessellation, compute shaders and graphics card multithreading will show which graphics card model is better and faster in games. The higher the score of the video card in the 3DMark 11 benchmark, the better.
