VGA performance: Dead Space (DX9)

Dead Space

Sci-fi, horror and gaming, thats a combination that really works Dead Space combines all three of these to form an excellent and exciting game that will keep you enthralled for quite some time. Admittedly, the game can get scary at times. Dead Space is a blistering experience of lashing tentacles infused with a gory gash of a ripper blade. Aside from the string of alien guts and limbs youll be leaving behind you, little finishing touches are what really make this game shine.

Image quality settings

  • Graphics quality HIGH
  • Vsync OFF
  • Antialiasing ON (in-game, presumably 4x AA)
  • Depth of field ON
  • Bloom/Glow ON
  • Motion and BLUR ON
  • Post processing ON
  • Flares ON
  • Shader & Shadow Quality HIGH

One of the more fun titles I find to be Dead Space. Where in Fallout 3 the title leans very much towards ATI cards, Dead Space leans very much towards NVIDIA cards. Regardless, even so... at 2560x1600 you'll play the game without a hiccup at 77 FPS on average.

When you inject competition in a VGA chart at 1920x1200, we see that ATI definitely worked on DS optimizations though. As you can see, the second GPU on the X2 did not kick in, hence its lower performance.
