Batman: Arkham City & Dirt 3 Results

Batman: Arkham City Results

Arkham City is optimized for NVIDIA PhysX optimization and as expected, all NVIDIA cards outperformed AMD. The GTX 660 Ti performed extremely well here, however we suspect this is largely due to newer ForceWare drivers. In comparison to last year's GTX 560 Ti, which was also updated to the newer 305.37 drivers, we saw a 35% increase in performance. So disregard the GTX 670 underperforming in this benchmark as we've yet to update its result set.

All three custom cards performed identically, outperforming the reference design by 5%.

Dirt 3 Results

Despite Dirt 3 being better optimized for AMD cards, NVIDIA once again led the way, with the GTX 660 Ti posting excellent scores, this time beating the Radeon HD 7950 by a massive 30%, while trailing behind the GTX 670 by only 11%. The custom edition GTX 660 Ti cards came even closer to matching the GTX 670 with the Gigabyte card still maintaining its slight lead over ASUS and Palit at both resolutions.
