    3DMark 11

    There are six tests in 3DMark 11. The four graphics tests use advanced rendering techniques to compile the scene including tessellation, volumetric lighting, depth of field and post processing effects. The physics test uses rigid body simulation to stress the CPU while the combined test features CPU and GPU workloads. The CPU handles rigid-body physics while the GPU is tasked with volumetric lighting, tessellation, post processing as well as simulating soft-body physics using DirectCompute.

    One thing you have to deal with when looking at factory overclocked video cards is that they often outperform the competition they were never intended to encounter.  In this benchmark we are using the Radeon HD 7850 OC card as a reference point and even with a factory overclock the GTX 650 Ti Boost wins out in the end.
