AMD HD7970 Graphics Card 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 are using the built in benchmark which is available via the STEAM client for this game.

Performance is class leading, averaging well over 70 fps at 1080p with the highest benchmark image quality settings. The extra power of the latest Core i7 3960 processor with quad channel memory and PCIe 3 slot helps improve performance further, by around 3 fps at 1080p and 20fps at 720p.
