Batman: Arkham City is a class above many games in the action-adventure genre, marrying gorgeous graphics and strong level design with potent storytelling and a kick-ass selection of gadgets and moves. It looks great in DX11, too.
Batman: Arkham City tells us a familiar tale; Sapphire's HD 7870 Flex GHz Edition card delivers a buttery-smooth experience at 1080p, but it's some way behind the next few options in our chart.
Using this benchmark as an example, a Radeon HD 7950 or GeForce GTX 670 can offer almost 20 per cent more performance, albeit at a cost of roughly £30-£40 more.
