EVGA GeForce GTX 1060 Gaming Review: Mini But Mighty Pascal

The latest Hitman title for 2016 once again follows Agent 47, a genetically-enhanced, cold-blooded assassin. He finds himself at the center of new missions scatted about Central Europe, but not before some drama in an ICA training facility some 20 years before the events of 2012's Hitman: Absolution. We tested the game using its DirectX 12 code path, at multiple resolutions, with all in-game options set to their maximum / Ultra values, with FXAA and 16x anisotropic filtering enabled...

Hitman (2016) DirectX 12 Gaming Performance

Hitman (2016)

The EVGA GeForce GTX 1060 Gaming's performance in Hitman looks much like Thief on the previous page -- the card finishes just behind the Radeon RX 480 at both resolutions we tested.

Ashes Of The Singularity DirectX 12 Performance

Oxide's Ashes Of The Singularity offers planetary warfare on a massive scale. The game also includes one of the first DirectX 12 benchmarks. And it's not synthetic like 3DMark’s API overhead feature test, but rather a real-world representation of in-game performance using a variety of workloads. We ran the Ashes benchmark at multiple resolutions with its "crazy" graphics preset and 4X anti-aliasing enabled to put as heavy a workload as possible on the GPUs.

The RX 480 and EVGA GeForce GTX 1060 Gaming swap positions in the Ashes benchmark. Here, the EVGA GeForce GTX 1060 Gaming comes out slightly behind at both resolutions.
