**Middle Earth :Shadow of Mordor Bench Thread**

The ingame benchmark is a very small map (doesnt even use the same vram as the game)and frametimes are so smooth while in-game they are crazy on higher resolutions.

"To be able to pass our playability test the 99th percentile of frametimes must average at or lower than 16.7ms , the 0.1 percentile not spiking above 50ms aswell as the game not utilizing all Vram resources. Our own personal experience using these standards ensure no bottlenecks, visual lag or stuttering at 60hz. For some users higher or lower values may be tolerated depending on hardware setups and monitor refresh rates."

This is the closest I could get to describing the playability of the game with data, its actually pretty good aslong as you monitor the other resources (vram,system memory and your pagefile)

3770k@ 4.8ghz 7970@ 1244/1750mhz
 
At 1080p I'm getting 75-80fps average during gameplay with everything maxed aside from textures which are at high, also have DOF off + MLAA forced with CCC.

I'm surprised, with the way releases have been lately it's nice to see a game so well optimised.

Specs in sig, will post benchmarks soon.

Got the game and cant stop playing it, love the very cinematic in game action!

Want to bench my 290x but the 4770k i have in that rig hasn't been clocked yet, so ill pop up my results later when its all done.
 
Anyone know what the latest is on the driver front for both the red and green teams.

Nothing from nVidia sadly. I was expecting something this week in truth. Completed Shadow (bar a couple of side missions), so not overly fussed. I can generally get games working in SLI with some fiddling in nVidia Inspector. Scaling was poor though and could have done with some driver tweaks.
 
Here are my 1440p results on 24/7 settings. 780s at 1180 MHz and 1200 MHz core. Enabled SLI using "force alternate frame rendering 2" in nvidia control panel. All game settings on ultra and HD pack installed.

Dual GPUs


Single 780 @ 1180 MHz core

 
4K Score
4 x 290Xs @1210/1500
4930k @4.7

I will give this a proper go when they get the drivers sorted. Every time I ran this I got a different score.:D:eek::p:D

VRAM usage is very heavy @4K but I think the game is just caching stuff as it is not trying to swap stuff out to disk.
