Alien: Isolation
One of the most terrifying games of recent years, Alien: Isolation is a must for fans of the series and on PC hardware it looks as good as it plays. To gauge performance, we benchmark a 45-second stint of the game at FHD, QHD and 4K UHD resolutions.
Looking at Nvidia's own stable, a factory-overclocked GTX 970 has the beating of the last-generation king, GeForce GTX 780 Ti. There's a good amount of power on offer at Gainward's proposed Ā£275 price tag and the Phoenix card has no trouble dishing out in excess of 60 frames per second at FHD and QHD resolutions. Even 4K UHD is playable.
