Here is a list of current desktop graphics cards stacked up against each other in a list. This list shows the top graphics cards you can get, with the highest performing at the top and the lowest performing at the bottom.
Performance is measured in a variety of methods. Benchmarks are taken from multiple reviews and sources and compared between the graphics cards. Specifically, we look at performance values in 3DMark and various current generation games to see where they sit in the list. If a card has a good rating in 3DMark, but falls behind other cards while gaming, we would take values from the games rather than 3DMark.
All graphics cards are measured under stock clocks and VRAM values are stated. Workstation graphics cards, limited/special edition graphics cards and mobile graphics are not included in this list.
