Batman Arkham Knight PC - Benchmarked

Batman Arkham Knight on PC was an unoptimized mess. But as the game was actually released, Rocksteady updated the game requirements of all AMD GPUs, increasing the minimum memory required from 2GB to 3GB whereas no such change was fabricated to gamers who had NVIDIA GPUs. With the games' release, reports started flooding in and gamers made their way onto Batman Arkham Knight forums. The game was capped at thirty fps and for good reason. Gamers reported all sorts of bug including lags stuttering and crashes. It was and so bad that Rocksteady suspended sales of Batman Arkham Knight to work on the games' bugs on the PC port. We're still not sure when the games' PC volition make its way dorsum onto the market.

Soon afterwards AMD and NVIDIA released new drivers specifically targeting improvements on Batman Arkham and the games' first PC patch has just been released aswell. We hope that it volition ameliorate the performance of the game further but lets have a look at the different GPU benchmarks equally tested by Techspot.

Testing Methodology

Techspot benchmarked Batman Arkham Knight using "Fraps" every bit its inbuilt benchmark mode was quite unstable. Naturally, the game was benchmarked at iii resolutions; 1080p, 1440p and 2160p (4K) using the highest settings immune in-game. Enhanced rain and enhanced light shafts were enabled, while the test with interactive paper debris and interactive fume/fog  could out exist carried out as they cannot be used with AMD graphics cards.

The game was locked at 30fps only a slight modification with a configuration file helped us cantankerous that hurdle.

Benchmarks 1920*1080

At the peak we can see that NVIDIA GPUs have over with the help of GTX 980 Ti followed by R9 390X  but no way almost that shut. Ane noted performance is of the R9 290 which performs exceptionally well in an all round result making information technology i of the best GPUs past value for coin in Batman Arkham 1080p category.

We can also encounter a tendency of minimum fps existence jammed at around 50 fps which might just be the limitation of the processor i7-5960X.  Nearing the lesser we tin can see 2 odd one'due south out i.due east. the R9 285 and the R9 380 which have performed beneath par relative to their respective expectations.

Benchmarks 2560*1440

At 1440p we tin encounter that the GTX 780 was the first graphic carte to keeps the minimum fps above 30 and the residuum can be categorized as the elite series cards. The R9 290 outperformed the R9 390 once more in terms od value for money with some fantastic results where the average is but 1fps down for the 290. The R9 390X savage merely short of the GTX 980 and merely every bit earlier, the GTX 980 Ti leads the way for graphic cards.

Benchmarks 3840*2160

A much shorter list for the 4K playability where even the GX 980's minimum fps went below 30 with the R9 390X side past side. We can see that the R9 390X and 290X  were in contest despite double the VRAM in the 390X. Anything below the R9 290 was unacceptable in terms of minimum fps for the 4k performance.

The menu offering the all-time value would be the R9 290 for me only the shining star of Batman Arkham Knight was definitely the GTX 980 Ti. That concludes the benchmarks for Batman Arkham Knight. Do share your views with us in the comments section.
