Here in the CodeCreatures benchmark we find that the MSI RX600XT-TD128 videocard fairs pretty well for itself. It's clearly faster than nVIDIA's GeForcePCX 5750 mainstream PCI Express chipset.

AquaMark 2.3 Source: Massive Development

AquaMark is another DirectX 8 benchmark. Using vertex shaders, any card that is DirectX8 compatible will not just have a huge speed boost, the image will also look better. Default test has 24 MB worth of textures.

The MSI RX600XT-TD128 all the way up to 1280x1024, but anything higher and AquaMark becomes too choppy.
