A special feature of this roundup, whose individual product pages can of course be regarded as individual tests, is the intentional focus on workmanship and technical equipment as well as the most important features such as power consumption, constant frequency, cooling and the resulting noise levels.
The gaming performance of all overclocked cards within a chip class, on the other hand, is very similar – there have never been so many different models from different manufacturers together. This is of course also due to the fact that almost all cards are already on the verge of what is reasonably feasible in terms of boost clock rates and thus there is less scope for extreme overclocking by the individual board partners.

With the availability of new test samples – some are already going through our benchmark course, others are in the influx – we will of course update this roundup promptly and regularly.
The order of the cards is based solely on the alphabet and does not represent the evaluation or preference of individual test samples.

Technical data at a glance
How we test
We use our standard measuring system for measuring performance and power consumption as well as our low-reflection audio measuring room with the well-known equipment for the collection of operating noise.
For the exact measurement methods and test setups, we recommend our basic articles on the respective topic, because transparency and traceability are important for the classification of the determined values and results:
>>> Infrared technology used correctly and sensibly
>>> Basics GPUs: Power Consumption, Power Supply Conflicts & Other Myths
>>> How we test loudspeakers, headphones and noise emissions
Below you will find the technical data of the various measuring and testing systems in a tabular order:
