Hi all!
As the question says
I thought (possibly wrongly!) that screen size didn't matter with benchmark scores?
I understand (also possibly wrongly lol) that if you use different resolutions that this could affect the scores, but I gathered that if you selected the same resolution on the benchmark then this would be as if they were equal?
I tested my 8 year old Philips 27" 1080p 60hz monitor and my brand new Aorus FV43U 4K 144hz monitor using my new pc and got what I consider to be vastly different results!
I tested them both using Super Position with the 1080p Extreme setting, and with the 27" screen (using an old HDMI cable I already had and was using it for the last years) I was hitting 12874 points
I then turned the computer off, disconnected the monitor and leads, and then connected the 43" up and did the exact precise tests (with the same windows open, etc), and using either DPort 1.4, or a new HDMI 2.1 cable or my old HDMI cable from my old monitor and was getting between 12524 and 12577 points when switching the pc completely off between tests and following the same exact procedure!
That's a 300-350 point difference!
I then reconnected my 27" to test again, and it got 12784, so still over 200 points more than any of the 43" tests!
I also ran User Benchmark with the two different monitors and also all the cables and again, thee performance using the 27" monitor beat the 43" on almost every count!
Gaming 257/258% vs 252/253%
Desktop were both equal at 106%
Workstation 281% vs 275/277%
Ok, there isn't MUCH of a difference, but it's still consistent!
PC Specs
Asus TUF Gaming z490 plus Wifi
i9-10850K
Gigabyte 3080ti Gaming OC
32gb Corsair RAM 🐏
Corsair 850w gold+ psu
Any ideas?
Or am I being stupid, and this is normal (which I'll cry after typing all this if I am haha 😂)
Thanks!!
