There are a few games whose benchmark sequences which are used in the GPU reviews are detailed, but for most games, those sequences are not detailed. For example, I want to compare my current GTX 1050 Ti in an older title which you do not include in your newer reviews against an older GPU, but I can't really do that fairly, because the FPS can be quite different in different levels and/or situations (sometimes in the same level as well). In your older reviews of Bad Company 2 and Far Cry 2, you have detailed the testing sequence used in those two games which is what I am suggesting you to do for all of your game benchmarks. I know you have already a ton of work even without this, but it can serve a good purpose for an even more detailed and precise review when taking a decision to buy a new GPU (and I hope there are more than a few people who can benefit from this as well). If this suggestion has already been taken care of, I would like to know what has been your answer to it. Much appreciated, and sorry for my grammar or any other mistakes, as the English is not my mother tongue.

They use current demanding games for tests, older games the hardware is so fast it doesn't matter

Don't worry about your language. This site has members from all over the world.
The GTX 1050 Ti is a good card for 1080p but it doesn't get the coverage that midrange cards get.

Ok heres a baseline the 290/290X/390/390X all are comparable to a 4 year newer card called the 1060/1060Ti.
4 years back the 290/390 Series were the top end cards for AMD just like the 780/ti was for Nvidia, 4 years later the card is considered low end because of the 1060.
1050/ti are budget models akin to say a 280/280X or 770

The image is legible. You just need to force 2X AA in your drivers.
