![]() ![]() SEE ALSO: Best Routers Round-up AMD Radeon R9 285: Batman: Arkham Origins Performance The new AMD card also beat the older R9 280 in almost five of the six Crysis 3 benchmarks. Neither card could manage to play this intensive title at 4K, but the R9 285 led the way in this test. The story was repeated at 2,560 x 1,440, with the R9 285 matching its rival with its minimum framerate and pulling marginally ahead with its average. The former figure equalled the GTX 760, while the latter was half a frame ahead. In this demanding game, run at 1080p, the new AMD card scored minimum and average framerates of 30fps and 45.91fps. The R9 285 continued to impress in Crysis 3. The R9 285 fell behind the GTX 760 at every resolution, but neither card managed to get beyond 30fps – and the tiny slivers of time we’re talking about here means that the framerate drops won’t cause noticeable slow-downs during gameplay. The situation wasn’t so clear-cut when it came to minimum framerates. That’s the right side of 30fps, which is something we can’t say about Nvidia – its card faltered at 26.37fps. The R9 285 managed to play Bioshock at 4K with a smooth average framerate of 33.38fps. The R9 285 also outpaced its predecessor, which was at least five frames slower in every average framerate test. At 2,560 x 1,440, the R9 285 averaged 48.43fps – three frames better than its rival. At 1080p the R9 285 averaged 90.41fps, which was almost seven frames ahead of the GTX 760, and it maintained that advantage when we upped the pixel count. The new card trades blows with the GTX 760, but it’s the Nvidia card that takes the narrowest of victories.ĪMD Radeon R9 285: Bioshock Infinite Performanceīusiness picked up when we loaded Bioshock Infinite. We hoped the R9 285’s updated architecture and Battlefield 4’s AMD-friendly coding would help the R9 285 pull clear of its older stablemate and the GTX 760 in this benchmark, but that wasn’t the case. No card was playable at 4K using our standard settings – in order to hit smooth framerates at this resolution, you’ll need to dial back the quality or buy a more expensive card. The three cards all hit minimums of 25fps or 26fps, but the factory-fresh R9 285’s average of 30.33fps was marginally behind both of its competitors. The mediocre form continued when we upped the resolution to 2,560 x 1,440. ![]() The latter fact gave us high hopes for the R9 285’s performance, but it got off to an inauspicious start: at 1080p its 37fps minimum equalled the GTX 760, but its 44.16fps average was half a frame behind the Nvidia card.
