Performance ratings

Calculations are based on gaming, 3DMark and Unigine test results. The calculation method is described here.

Ratings are divided into two groups: General and Gaming. The former includes all test results while the latter includes only test results obtained in actual games (excluding 3DMark and Unigine results).
