MSI RTX 2080 Ti Lightning Z 11GB Review – The £1500 RTX!

Far Cry 5 is an action-adventure first-person shooter game developed by Ubisoft Montreal and Ubisoft Toronto and published by Ubisoft for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. It is the eleventh entry and the fifth main title in the Far Cry series, and was released on March 27, 2018.

The game takes place in the fictional Hope County, Montana, where charismatic preacher Joseph Seed and his cult Project at Eden’s Gate holds a dictatorial rule over the area. The story follows an unnamed junior deputy sheriff, who becomes trapped in Hope County and works alongside factions of a resistance to liberate the county from Eden’s Gate. (Wikipedia).

We test using the Ultra preset, with AA and motion blur disabled.

MSI's Lightning Z produces some excellent frame rates in Far Cry 5. Even at 4K, this card produces over 80FPS – about 5FPS more than Nvidia's Founders Edition. It's getting the point where a 4K/144Hz monitor might actually be worth it.
