The Alien vs. Predator benchmark makes use of the advanced Tessellation, screen space ambient occlusion, and high-quality shadow features available with DirectX 11. In addition to enabling all of the aforementioned DirectX 11-related features offered by this benchmark, we also switched on 4X anti-aliasing along with 16X anisotropic filtering to more heavily tax the graphics cards being tested. |
The Radeon R9 290X, whether in Uber or Quiet mode, also put up the best scores in the again Alien vs. Predator benchmark, besting all other cards by a wide margin.

Our FCAT results show that there were no major issues with frame pacing with any of the cards, which is what we've come to expect from single-GPU configurations. The higher-performing cards output frames at a quicker rate, but there are no major spikes or dips in frame time to speak of here.
