Batman: Arkham City Game Settings

Batman: Arkham City Game Settings

Batman: Arkham City uses the Unreal Engine 3 game engine with PhysX. For benchmark 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 Benchmark Results

Benchmark Results: The ASUS ARES2 had no problem running Batman Arkham City at 1920x1080 and 2560x1600, but it really started to look good at 2560x1600 when it pulled ahead of the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 690 video card.
