Bioshock Infinite
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.
Although Bioshock Infinite is quite merciful in terms of graphical power, the Orion Nano maxes this game out well above 60 frames at 1440p; it will still struggle to maintain decent frame rates at 4k however!
Well I bought one, I have been looking for a similar spec nano pc capable of games at decent frame rates and this ticked the box pretty much. Id have hoped the ddr4 would have been a faster version but all in all its a great price; especially when you spec it like for like on other sites. The r9 nano will certainly do until pascal arrives.
I’ve just got to wait for the build and delivery, I’m sure the wait will be worth it.
Let us know your thoughts when it gets there Jim. It’s nice to have feedback even if you disagree with some of our findings 🙂
Craig, Well I have got it now, it was ten working days in production, and about 24 hours for delivery. I did have an email and phone call about the 5th working day to inform me the r9 nano was not in stock; I had the option to wait or choose a different card, so for an extra £80 I chose a Zotac GTX 980Ti. So arguably even more powerful for the price.
The pc is great, very quiet even under load, the subtle red glow from the mobo, very snappy loading/boot times and the case is even better in the flesh, compact, premium and solid.
I’m happy with the service I received and order tracking, albeit the waiting time seems long, its been worth it, ticks the boxes on many fronts.
What do you think so far? 😀
