Gigabyte GA-Z87X-OC Motherboard Review (w/ Intel i7 4770k)

Shogun 2 is set in 16th-century feudal Japan, in the aftermath of the Ōnin War. The country is fractured into rival clans led by local warlords, each fighting for control. The player takes on the role of one of these warlords, with the goal of dominating other factions and claiming his rule over Japan.The standard edition of the game will feature a total of eight factions (plus a ninth faction for the tutorial), each with a unique starting position and different political and military strengths.
The built in benchmarks in STEAM would not run, returning the errors above. We therefore loaded the game and configured the image quality settings ourselves.

We selected a 1080p resolution and used the default ‘low' quality settings as shown in the image above.

The game ran well on low image quality settings, averaging just over 60 frames per second. There is certainly a little overhead to increase some of the image quality settings available.
