Bioshock Infinite
Bioshock Infinite (DirectX 11)
BioShock Infinite is a first-person shooter like you’ve never seen. Just ask the judges from E3 2011, where the Irrational Games title won over 85 editorial awards, including the Game Critics Awards’ Best of Show. Set in 1912, 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. During their daring escape, Booker and Elizabeth form a powerful bond — one that lets Booker augment his own abilities with her world-altering control over the environment. Together, they fight from high-speed Sky-Lines, in the streets and houses of Columbia, on giant zeppelins, and in the clouds, all while learning to harness an expanding arsenal of weapons and abilities, and immersing players in a story that is not only steeped in profound thrills and surprises, but also invests its characters with what Game Informer called “An amazing experience from beginning to end."
Our Settings for Bioshock Infinite
By far the biggest advantage for the ASUS Strix GTX 780 over the reference GTX 780, Bioshock Infinite is able to take advantage of the larger memory buffer and improve GeForce performance to basically the same level as the Radeon R9 290X. This is easily the biggest jump in performance and is likely a combination of hardware and software, but the result are interesting none the less.
Usually when a review claims
Usually when a review claims 6 gigs is enough for 4k gaming they actually include that in the benchmarks, contradicting your hardocp link of gtx 6 gig 780s in sli which cliams 6 gigs isn’t enough for 4k gaming!
They didn’t claim that. They
They didn’t claim that. They claimed that there was an issue with this card in SLI at 4K that is likely a software issue, noting that the 290X w/4GB performed flawlessly. 6GB should be more than sufficient unless you’re using more than one 4K display.

Realize that the Titan Black fills that spot and that there NEVER will be a 780Ti 6GB card.

Also, no mention of the guru3d FLiR test and the DCUII VRM design flaw, leaving you with VRM temps runing close to the rated specs of the components of the PCB.
Fancy 104C VRM anyone? 😛
Bringning this to ASUS tech supports attention, they reply that I should RMA my cards. Go fogure.

Imo,it’s more about peace of mind when buying something so expensive. Quite possibly the VRM will just work for years and years, but then again maybe it will burn up after a year or two the card cooking itself. If I had $600 to buy a new video card, I’d get something different than this card, but would also check that other site to see if they did a thermal review on it as well.
Its about being thoroughly
Its about being thoroughly informed about a product.
Most of the gpu reviews here at PCPerspective revolve around 4-5 games with overclocking, power and sound summarize. They tell you more about those 4-5 games rather then the hardware that’s being reviewed.
If one wants detailed consistent analysis they are forced to go somewhere else.
Actually, I agree with that.
