Sapphire HD7790 OC Review

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.

We run the DX11 Graphics High 1080p benchmark, available for this game in STEAM. You can therefore directly compare against your own system. Frame rates are rounded up or down to the nearest digit.

Real in game performance varies substantially across the environments and levels, but we include these results so you can compare directly with your own system. If the game delivers good frame rates with the 1080p benchmark, you can sure it will run well with high image quality settings in game too.

The game runs well on the Sapphire HD7790 OC. We tested the game with high image quality settings after running the automated benchmark and the frame rate was perfectly smooth throughout. The HD7850 has a slight edge but under most circumstances it would be difficult to see. The HD7770 Core struggles to maintain perfectly smooth frame rates throughout.
