Here we test five games, all at 3840×2160 resolution using maximum image quality settings.

The reason we don't focus on as many game benchmarks becomes clear when looking at the results shown here. Comparing the Xtreme Waterforce against the MSI Suprim X, we only saw an average difference of 2% in favour of the Aorus, with a 3% margin at the very most. Realistically, I don’t think you’d notice the difference in frame rates when actually playing games, but on paper the Aorus Xtreme is the fastest 3090 Ti we have tested so far.
