Ghost Recon Wildlands (DX11)
Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Wildlands brings a modern, highly demanding DX11 title to our suite, with the lush open world style FPS/3PS requiring heavy graphics horsepower to run at the highest settings. On that note, we turned down settings to Very High, which also had the effect of turning off NVIDIA GameWorks settings: HBAO+, Enhanced Volumetric Lighting (Godrays), and Turf Effects. This keeps performance apples-to-apples, and makes direct cross-vendor comparisons easier to make.

Good to see a GPU review up! Shame they are all impossible to buy for anything close to MSRP.matt321 - Wednesday, January 31, 2018 - link
I believe there's an error in the first chart. The 1070 TI FE has a 1x 8pin power, not 1x 6pin.damianrobertjones - Wednesday, January 31, 2018 - link
Once again: I don't really care about the max fps achieved by these cards, although nice to have, as I'm FAR more interested in the minimum rates. Can the cards maintain a healthy 60 fps, at all times, or do they dip (it low)? Etc.milkod2001 - Wednesday, January 31, 2018 - link
at 1440p yes, it canTitanX - Wednesday, January 31, 2018 - link
Guess my 580 will continue to soldier on the the time being..even in my next system build.dave_the_nerd - Wednesday, January 31, 2018 - link
A 970 would have been a nice addition to the benchmarks, since it was an incredibly common gaming card and the 1070 family is the logical upgrade path.Love your work though! :-)

A 980Ti would look nice too in those charts...b1gtuna - Wednesday, January 31, 2018 - link
Wait, 1080 costs $1K USD? I bought one at $650 in December...Le Québécois - Wednesday, January 31, 2018 - link
Same, I bought one for S550 just before Christmas. The funny thing is that I wasn't planning on a 1080, I wanted the 1070 but the price difference was only $50, probably because it was already being affected by the shortage.Seeing I was replacing a 6yo HD 7970, I'd say it's a good thing I didn't wait any longer.

Man, I was GOING to upgrade back in early December, but I didn't like the pricing situation and was gonna wait a week or two for the next funnybux crash to drive prices back down....
Yeah, that didn't work out so well.
