Benchmarks: Battlefield 3, BioShock

The Gainward GeForce GTX 650 Ti Boost averaged 44.5fps at 1920x1200 in Battlefield 3, allowing it to match the Radeon HD 7850. This also meant that it was 22% faster than the 7790 and 10% faster than the GTX 650 Ti, while it was 15% slower than the GTX 660.

When armed with a second GeForce GTX 650 Ti Boost graphics card the frame rate increased from 44.5fps to a more impressive 83.7fps. This meant that the GTX 650 Ti Boost SLI cards were 6% slower than the Radeon HD 7850 Crossfire setup but 23% faster than a single 7950. This also did well when compared to the GeForce GTX 660 Ti as they were 38% faster and just 14% slower than the GTX 660 SLI configuration.

The Gainward GeForce GTX 650 Ti Boost took an average of 29.3ms between frames at 1920x1200 and this made it just 3% slower than the Radeon HD 7850, while it was 39% faster than the 7790. When compared to the GeForce GTX 650 Ti the new GTX 650 Ti Boost was just 5% faster, making it 20% slower than the GTX 660.

The frame time performance was improved quite a bit with a second GeForce GTX 650 Ti Boost graphics card as the latency was reduced from 29.3ms to just 19.1ms when utilizing SLI technology. This meant that the GTX 650 Ti Boost cards were now 30% faster than the Radeon HD 7850 Crossfire duo and just 5% slower than the GTX 660 SLI configuration.

The Gainward GeForce GTX 650 Ti Boost averaged of 40.9fps when testing with BioShock Infinite at 1920x1200, which allowed it to match the performance of the Radeon HD 7870. This meant that it was 10% faster than the Radeon HD 7850 and 48% faster than the 7790.

Adding a second GeForce GTX 650 Ti Boost graphics card boosted performance quit significantly and now with an average frame rate of 69.6fps the GTX 650 Ti Boost setup was 43% faster than the Radeon HD 7950 and 5% faster than the 7850 Crossfire cards.

The frame time results saw the Gainward GeForce GTX 650 Ti Boost take an average of 39.4ms between frames at 1920x1200, making it 45% faster than the Radeon HD 7850 and 80% faster than the 7790.

The GeForce GTX 650 Ti Boost SLI cards didn't fair quite as well when measuring frame time performance when compared to the Radeon HD 7950, but with a 19% performance advantage they were still clear winners. Better still, when compared to the Radeon HD 7850 Crossfire cards they were now 8% faster.
