Notes on performance

  1. If a particular card is not in the summary, i.e. its results are either 0, or 1, it means the given benchmark didn't work or worked incorrectly with this card.
  2. If you imagine a line connecting ends of columns representing test results on a chart, you can judge if a game is critical to a card or a CPU. If this curve is "convex" and many cards perform similarly, it means at this resolution and under this load performance is bottlenecked by system resources, not graphics card potential. If, vice versa, the curve is "concave" and performance drops quickly as card potential reduces, it means the game puts heavy load on graphics cards and depends exclusively on their potential.
