The last of the synthetic results with 3D Mark Professional. Strong results for the little card, but in last place overall, hold your breath for a driver release to chip away at performance results like this.

The performance monitoring and throttling could be a concern if you have a small chassis without good ventilation. This is designed for at least a small chassis, but make sure it has good ventilation or at lease a clear airflow path. For Hardwareslave at least, it’s king of the hill.
