Bioshock

Bioshock (DirectX 10)


An impressive FPS-based game with a great story, Bioshock impresses with both graphics and its ability to drag you along in the gameplay.  It has both DX9 and DX10 render paths and should make a great benchmark for graphics cards promising the best of both worlds.

A slightly newer version of the NV driver gives the single card Bioshock results a big boost and actually move the new 8800 GT GPU above even the top end GTX in average frame rate.

The SLI results are not very impressive though with this new driver and we only see moderate scaling over the single card results above.  The 8800 GT card is definitely running faster than the 8800 GTS 640MB though which is impressive for a card at this price point.
