Asus R9 390X STRIX DC3 OC 8GB Review

Set in 1912, in Bioshock Infinite, players assume the role of former Pinkerton agent Booker DeWitt, sent to the flying city of Columbia on a rescue mission. His target? Elizabeth, imprisoned since childhood.

Bioshock Infinite is set to its highest image quality settings at both resolutions. We test a section of the game. In our previous graphics card reviews we have removed the game’s minimum FPS reading as our current test method seems to be imposing an unjustified penalty against AMD cards so we are looking into this issue. The same charting process is conducted for this review.

1440P results in Bioshock Infinite put the R9 390X behind a GTX 980 STRIX. The same story holds true for 4K performance, however the gap is widened to 9%, which gives an implication that the 8GB of VRAM has no benefit in Bioshock Infinite even at 4K.
