Asus GTX760 Direct CU Mini and HD7850 Direct CU II V2 Review

Total War ROME 2 is the eighth stand alone game in the Total War series, it is the successor to the successful Rome: Total War title. The Warscape Engine powers the visuals of the game and the new unit cameras will allow players to focus on individual soldiers on the battlefield, which in itself may contain thousands of combatants at a time. Creative Assembly has stated that they wish to bring out the more human side of war this way, with soldiers reacting with horror as their comrades get killed around them and officers inspiring their men with heroic speeches before siege towers hit the walls of the enemy city. This will be realised using facial animations for individual units, adding a feel of horror and realism to the battles.

To test the cards today we use the ULTRA profile settings shown above at 1920×1080.

The latest Directx X 11 real time strategy game in the Total War Series is demanding. All cards are playable at these high image quality settings, even the single HD7850 which averages 40 frames per second. When two cards are in Crossfire, the average frame rate jumps from 40 to 59.
