Ok its slightly more difficult to cross ref alllll the benchmarks. Some turn on this some turn on that, some tested ultra some tested high. Gosh.

So narrowed down for Tomb Raider. For my results, i set the same settings and rerun 3 times to take the closes scores.

It seems like Hardware Canucks have some uber Fury X lol





Oops its 87.6* for my fury X on 2nd chart ***

Is their cpu base similar?

Your card also good, maybe the CPU on Hardwarecanuck's test bench helped bump up a few FPS.

Edit: Their test bench is using Intel i7 4930K @ 4.7GHz

I noticed that quite a handful of reviewer's test bench (even HWZ's) are using the X platform. Say testing on X99 vs Z97 got so much difference meh?

There is. The rams and also the cpu.

The rams for ddr4 minimum already 2400mhz. Some of them use faster rams. Also factoring in their cpu clocked speed.

They can pull slightly higher results. Not much but some even pull 9 frames more. Which can also lead to inaccurate frames recorded and fans will go crazy that it performs extremely well if the 980ti hits 9fps more. Lol

I think the best is still to have the reults at 1-2% gap differences.

Different Rams different cpu different config. -+ 5-7 fps max. It's around there.
Not controlled testing u run x number of times still pointless imho.

I mean at least for people who have the hardware then again, quite troublesome and pointless as you pointed out because cannot cross compare with others who run different hardware..

Also noted the different drivers implemented

But 5-7 is quite a significant margin of error hmm though not a significant bump in experience haha. Weird right.

Or is it a specific system/CPU trend that would benefit a particular gpu I.e. (just drawing examples) more cores beneficial with fury? Quad core benefits nvidia? High/low clock speed for ram/CPU benefits red/green etc?
