Middle-earth: Shadow of War is an action role-playing video game developed by Monolith Productions and published by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment. It is the sequel to 2014’s Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor, and was released worldwide for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One on October 10, 2017. (Wikipedia).

We test using the Very High preset.

 

Things don't look so good with Middle Earth: Shadow of War. The GTX 1650 does average almost 60FPS at 1080p, but this is again about 8FPS behind both RX 570 and GTX 1060. 1440p gaming also suffers from minimum frame rates that drop down into the 23FPS region.
