Batman: Arkham City Game Settings

Batman: Arkham City Game Settings

Batman: Arkham City uses the Unreal Engine 3 game engine with PhysX. For bencmark testing of Batman: Arkham City we disabled PhysX to keep it fair and ran the game in DirectX 11 mode with 8x MSAA enabled and all the image quality features cranked up. You can see all of the exact settings in the screen captures above.

Batman: Arkham City Benchmark Results
Benchmark Results: This game has some serious issues in DirectX 11 mode and a patch came out on the morning on 12/7/2011 that was supposed to fix many of the DX11 issues. We didn't use that patch for these results, but even with the stuttering issues we were able to see the performance scaling that we expected. The one thing we didn't expect was the MSI R6950 Twin Frozr III 1G/OC to do so well on this NVIDIA game title. It will be interesting to see what happens after we update these results with the new game patch.
