Palit GTX 950 2GB StormX Dual Review

3DMark is an essential tool used by millions of gamers, hundreds of hardware review sites and many of the world’s leading manufacturers to measure PC gaming performance.

Futuremark say “Use it to test your PC’s limits and measure the impact of overclocking and tweaking your system. Search our massive results database and see how your PC compares or just admire the graphics and wonder why all PC games don’t look this good.

To get more out of your PC, put 3DMark in your PC.”

Unfortunately we could not run the 3DMark tests using our overclocked Radeon 7850 graphics card as doing so forced the clock speed to revert to their reference levels. This seems to be a bug that was isolated to 3DMark, as all other games and benchmarks run at the fully overclocked speeds.

3DMark graphics score puts Palit's GTX 950 StormX Dual closer to the performance level of its heavily overclocked GTX 750 Ti sibling than that of the GTX 960.

3DMark shows how much benefit overclocking the Maxwell core can bring – the higher out-of-the-box Asus card is faster than Palit's GTX 950, but overclocking the Palit board triggers a sizeable performance boost.
