Asus RX 470 Strix Gaming OC Aura RGB 4GB review

Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor is a third-person open world video game, where the player controls a ranger by the name of Talion who seeks revenge on the forces of Sauron after his family, including his wife, are killed. Players can travel across locations in the game through parkour, riding monsters, or accessing Forge Towers, which serve as fast travel points.

We test at 1440p with the image quality settings at Ultra.

At 1440p, the RX 470 puts in a very healthy performance, averaging 50 frames per second. A little reduction in image quality settings would help drive the minimum frame rates higher. Its very closely matched against our Palit GTX970 sample at this resolution.
