Benchmarks (Part 2)
We would like to thank Futuremark for providing the 3DMark software for use in this testing. I’ll let the numbers do all the talking.
Sadly, were not able to fully run 3DMark benchmarks at max settings. The minimum requirement is stated as per below … the onboard Geforce GTX 1050 only had 2GB of VRAM.
3DMark v2 – Firestrike (DX11)
Fire Strike is a showcase DirectX 11 benchmark designed for today’s high-performance gaming PCs. It is our most ambitious and technical benchmark ever, featuring real-time graphics rendered with detail and complexity far beyond what is found in other benchmarks and games today.
FAILED TO RUN DUE TO INSUFFICIENT VRAM
3DMark v2 – Time Spy (DX12)
3DMark Time Spy is a new DirectX 12 benchmark test for Windows 10 gaming PCs. Time Spy is one of the first DirectX 12 apps to be built “the right way” from the ground up to fully realize the performance gains that the new API offers. With its pure DirectX 12 engine, which supports new API features like asynchronous compute, explicit multi-adapter, and multi-threading, Time Spy is the ideal test for benchmarking the latest graphics cards.

Heavensward – High Settings
Final Fantasy has been around for a very, very long time. The beloved RPG franchise has been seen as the most successful video game RPG series of all time. The latest MMO flavor, Final Fantasy XIV, has some unprecedented visual quality, a full range of character variety, as well as some pretty special magical effects. We tested this game using the free downloadable benchmark with the default Maximum preset. The result is a beautiful game with an ultra-smooth frame rate and an Extremely High branded score.
Here are the results for Heavenward benchmark.
