We have always wondered how exactly does CPU frequency affects performance of our games, we have 3DMark 06 showing us increasing CPU frequency will lead to anincrease in the scores. To be sure that CPU frequency does have an impact on the performance of our graphics card, we ran 3 benchmarks in order to find out.
- 3DMark VantageCrysis WarheadFar Cry 2
We decided to vary the frequency from the lowest possible stable frequency to the highest possible stable freuquency.
