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.
All settings are pushed to mixed high/ultra settings as shown below.
Real world testing can fluctuate a little, especially with dynamic environments. With this test we also like to include built in benchmark results via Steam so readers can directly compare against their own hardware. Direct X 11 1080p and 720p results are below.
Direct X 11 performance is strong from the 6 series AMD cards, and 1080p is perfectly playable with the settings cranked.
Another great card. really enjoying my 5830 xtreme.
Thanks, looks like another good product. so price will be £220 ish? is that the ballpark? I notice sapphire do a dual fan 6950, but its not overclocked and probably cant be unlocked either.
excellent, I need to get dirt 3 cause i need a new game
2GB is nice. I still play GTA4 and that helps. I like maxing everything
Id like to see if two of these would be as good as a HD6990.
you ever hear of the return key?
Good card, but im holding fire until the end of the year, until the refreshed cards come out.
PC market is dead anyway, nothing happening within it 🙁 games all suck lately
Whats up with the box? did they cut the dual fan cooler out at the last minute?
so many of these cards out now its hard to keep track. I think ill wait until the 7 series before upgrading, my old 4 series still manages to play most of the games on my 17 inch screen. Best waiting for the new mid range boards whenever they are out.
This card seems the ultimate 6000 series bang for buck card, runs cool/silent, low power requirements and can be tweaked to outperform the 6970 by a large margin. I need this card sooner then later please!
