BioShock Infinite

BioShock is fantastically playable and looks great on the PC. We benchmark a 40-second section near the start.

In-game performance is right where we'd expect to be in BioShock Infinite. Sapphire's mild factory overclock sees the Vapor-X card slot in just behind the Asus and PowerColor models, meaning performance is impressive. Just over 60 frames per second at 2,560x1,440 looks very nice indeed and only factory-overclocked GTX 780 Tis are noticeably faster.
