Here we present frame rate figures for each graphics card, averaged across all 11 games on test today. These figures can disguise significant variations in performance from game to game, but provide a useful overview of the sort of performance you can expect at each resolution tested.

RTX 3090 does best at 4K, and we can see the MSI RTX 3090 Gaming X Trio averaged 91FPS at this resolution, across all 11 games we tested. This makes it a prime candidate for use with a high refresh rate 4K monitor. We can also see the MSI card averaged a single frame more than the Gigabyte RTX 3090 Eagle OC, thanks to its high boost clock.
