Sapphire HD7990 QuadFireX 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 run the DX11 Graphics High 1080p benchmark, available for this game in STEAM. You can therefore directly compare against your own system. Frame rates are rounded up or down to the nearest digit.

On the next page we test the three cards with real in game performance at 2560×1600.

The single HD7990 outperforms the single GTX690, by around 3 frames per second. In QuadFire, the frame rate increases from 139 fps to around 176 fps.
