VGA performance: DeadSpace (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.

One of the more fun titles this year I found to be Dead Space. As scary as the game is... so are the results. I was surprised to see that ATI has not yet optimized Dead Space with the Catalyst 8.11 or 8.12 drivers as the performance difference nearly feels juvenile to observe.
Up to this very moment, NVIDIA graphics cards dominate this game's performance and even at 2560x1200 we get an average framerate of 150 FPS returned... that's right I said average.
