Batman: Arkham Origins

“Batman: Arkham Origins is a 2013 action-adventure video game developed by Warner Bros. Games Montréal and released by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment for Microsoft Windows and the PlayStation 3, Wii U and Xbox 360 video game consoles. Based on the DC Comics superhero Batman, it follows the 2011 video game Batman: Arkham City and is the third main installment in the Batman: Arkham series. The game, played from a third-person perspective, focuses on Batman’s combat and stealth abilities, detective skills, and gadgets for combat and exploration. Arkham Origins is the first game in the series with multiplayer capability.” From Wikipedia.



A mixed result here, at one point it’s in the lead, the next it falls short of both NVIDIA GTX 970 and 980.









How does this card have a great performance/price ratio if the price is unknown yet?
Kudos for being the first tech site that reviewed the 300 series from AMD ( from what I see).
Because the price isn’t unknown.
I find it intriguing that this seems to be the only review showing any higher memory usage.
I’m beginning to wonder if some 390/X are actually running the old Hawaii core while others are running the *very* slightly updated Grenada (which has 2~5% higher per cycle and about 20~40W lower power draw on the core – which is then used on the RAM and higher clock speeds.).
anything from Sapphire that is not OC AKA Black Screen version?
If you had black screen issue, you probably used ASUS motherboard. I had the same problem and it turned out it was the shitty’s Asus M5A78L-M fault. I had so many problem with this mobo it’s ridiculous. I’ll never take anything else from them.
Did you guys honestly run one compute benchmark and declare Nvidia as the winners? WOW just WOW
When I saw this: GTX970 ROPs: 64 i stopped reading. Gj on your fail
