Deus Ex: Human Revolution

Deus Ex: Human Revolution is the third game in the Deus Ex first-person role-playing video game series, and a prequel to the original game. Announced on May 27, 2007, Human Revolution was developed by Eidos Montreal and published by Square Enix. It was released in August 2011. Human Revolution contains elements of first-person shooters and role-playing games, set in a near-future where corporations have extended their influence past the reach of global governments. The game follows Adam Jensen, the security chief for one of the games most powerful corporations, Sarif Industries. After a devastating attack on Sarifs headquarters, Adam is forced to undergo radical surgeries that fuse his body with mechanical augmentations, and he is embroiled in the search for those responsible for the attack.

Deus Ex: Human Revolution uses a modified Crystal Dynamics Crystal game engine, which some of you might know as the game engine from previous Tomb Raider game titles. The game developers did some rather hefty modifications to this engine though as the graphics are superb in this title. The Geforce GTX 780 Ti average frame rate was 12.3% higher than the Radeon R9 290X.

Benchmark Results: In Deus Ex: Human Revolution we see the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780 Ti SC clearly out performing the AMD Radeon R9 290X with scores that were 8FPS higher across the board. The AMD Radeon R9 290X was about 12% slower on average in this benchmark.

The EVGA GeForce GTX 780 Ti Superclocked graphics card was able to run Deus EX: Human Revolution on a 4K display really well and the average FPS was over the critical 60 FPS mark with all the settings cranked up.
