On another note, I have to say, so far I'm really enjoying the game and its dynamic enemy system. Judging from our testing, its safe to say that you can ignore that 6GB ‘requirement' for Ultra textures at sub 4K resolutions, the game is perfectly playable with a 3GB GPU.

From our end, it looks like Monolith Studios has done a great job with the PC version of Shadow of Mordor. We are happy to report that on our system, we didn't encounter any major bugs, graphical glitches, crashes or performance issues while using the 1440p settings listed on the previous page.

We don't have a 4GB GPU or 6GB GPU on hand at the moment to compare high resolution results.īenchmarks don't always tell the whole story though so we played a few hours of the game to check for any flaws.

We did notice frame drops during 4K testing and gameplay, which is to be expected, current single GPU technology just doesn't have the horsepower.Īs far as VRAM usage goes, at 4K we observed the game capping out at 3050MB on the GTX 780, so the game is in-fact making full use of the resources.

It may seem like a big step down in fidelity judging from the options menu but in most cases you'll find that 4K at its lowest settings will look just as good as 1080p with high settings. We managed to achieve a much more playable frame rate with these graphical tweaks, averaging 34 frames per second. The new settings are much less demanding, mixing in some high, medium and low settings with our Ultra textures. Our average was 24 frames per second, ideal for the ‘filmic' look some developers seem to be striving for with the current generation consoles.Ģ4 frames per second isn't exactly playable, so we did some tweaking and found a decent balance between fidelity and frame rate for a single GPU at 4K: Going from 1440p to 4K with the same graphical settings cost us 30 frames per second. The graphical settings for this run through are very ambitious considering that there is no SLI support for the game just yet.

We will have to wait for Nvidia to release a driver update. We do have a second GPU available for SLI but there is currently no profile for it at this time. We will be running through the 4K benchmark twice, once with the same settings as the 1080p/1440p run through and then again with some more realistic settings for a single card. However, its always interesting to see the results anyway. From joy at the introduction of a new elf heartthrob to confusion over the angsty appearance of the Dark Lord Sauron, the Tweets surrounding The Rings of Power give plenty to think about.Not many of you guys will be in a position to own a 4K screen alongside the kind of PC required to play games at such a monstrous resolution. No matter which side of the debate prospective audiences fall on, their reactions on platforms like Twitter have been entertaining in and of themselves. On the other hand, several Tolkien lovers fully support the changes, deciding to enjoy the new series for what it is, not what they want it to be. As with any book-to-screen adaptations, devoted buffs are reluctant to approve of anything that does not strictly follow the original story's canon. The reactions from fans are wildly mixed.

Tolkien's story is up for pretty heavy debate. Fans of The Lord of the Rings have a lot to consider after the various reveals seen in the three-minute teaser, and the topic of how Amazon will be adjusting J.R.R. There are only a couple of short months to wait before the series premiere (September 2nd) of The Rings of Power, and Prime Video has finally dropped the full trailer.
