Gigabyte GTX 760 OC Video Card Review

Fire Strike is a new DirectX 11 showcase benchmark designed for high-performance gaming PCs.  The benchmark features real-time graphics rendered with detail and complexity far beyond what is found in other benchmarks and really pushes the limits of what DirectX 11 can do.

Factory overclocked video cards are good because they offer two things.  First would be better performance overall which can be seen in our FireStrike chart.  The second is a warranty, If you overclock a reference card there is a chance you forfeit any warranty claim and for some that is a big deal.

Firestrike is showing us just how much more performance you can get from a simple tweak of the GPU and memory.
