NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 Ti Versus AMD Radeon HD 6950 1GB

3DMark 11

3DMark 11 is the latest version of the worlds most popular benchmark for measuring the 3D graphics performance of gaming PCs. 3DMark 11 uses a native DirectX 11 engine designed to make extensive use of all the new features in DirectX 11, including tessellation, compute shaders and multi-threading.

Since Futuremark has recently released 3DMark11we decided to run the benchmark at both performance and extreme presets to see how our hardware will run.
