EVGA GTX 1080 Classified Video Card Review

Hitman 2016
Hitman places the iconic assassin on missions in exotic and diverse locales to kill various villains in each episode. The game supports both DX11 and DX12 rendering methods and comes with a benchmarking application allowing you to test every visual component of the game.

The Hitman benchmarking tool supports both DX11 and DX12 rendering engines however I have discovered that the DX11 only reports CPU score making it invalid for video card testing. DX12 performance is what we are interested in and I'm actually surprised to see how fast the GTX 1070 is by comparison.
Granted it is factory overclocked making this review very overclocker friendly.
