Batman: Arkham Asylum
MSI GeForce GTX 460 1GB HAWK
The GeForce GTX 460 will face some new competition in a short while from the AMD side of things but even so, the MSI GTX 460 HAWK card stands out with interesting and unique features. For today, the primary competition for the MSI card is the reference GTX 460 1GB cards, the AMD Radeon HD 5830 and even the GeForce GTX 470 1.25GB.
Here is our test system setup for the benchmarks:
- Testing Configuration
- ASUS P6T6 WS Revolution X58 + nForce 200

Batman: Arkham Asylum (DirectX 10)
One of the best received gaming titles on both console and PC for 2009, Batman: Arkham Asylum is an impressive game both visually and in terms of design.
Batman: Arkham Asylum Test Settings
One interesting note: Batman (personally) doesn’t allow setting AA levels in-game for AMD graphics card but DOES for NVIDIA GPUs. We instead enabled AA in the AMD Catalyst Control Panel where noted.
The MSI GTX 460 HAWK is definitely running faster than the stock GTX 460 and is nearly able to keep up with the GTX 470.
