Previously it would have been CPU-bound which showed especially well at the lower levels, so now a better GPU and CPU will be even more useful than before. The reason the improvement isn't as great on the higher settings is due to the optimizations that were done. Minimum FPS not dropping so hard will result in a much smoother game overall. The Ultra setting is the odd one out, since my 970 card isn't good enough, as Ultra recommends a 6GB VRAM card which my 970 is not. ![]() The most important items to me, are the Minimum and Average FPS, which show improvements no matter the setting. Intel i5-4670K, Nvidia 970 (375.26 driver), Ubuntu 64bit:Īs you can see, it has improved a fair bit. The game was also restarted after each setting change to allow things to get properly refreshed. Of course, these were run multiple times to ensure of their accuracy. This is essentially a dual test of newer drivers + latest patch optimizations. The old version also isn't available to opt in, so I have to go by the original results (the machine setup is exactly the same, minus driver). I would have compared it directly with the original NVIDIA driver I used, but back then I didn't list it. These are in comparison to my original results, run on the same hardware but with a newer NVIDIA driver and the latest Shadow of Mordor patch. Since Feral Interactive noted performance fixes in the recent Shadow of Mordor patch I went ahead and test some benchmarks on my testing box for you.
