GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Shadow Of Mordor And The Division Benchmarks

Monolith’s surprisingly fun Orc-slaying title Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor, delivers a ton of visual fidelity even at the lowest quality settings. So, to maximize the eye-candy on these high-end graphics cards, we ran the game’s Ultra quality benchmark routine at a couple of resolutions, topping out at 4K -- excuse us, 3840x2160 for the sticklers out there. All of the game's graphics-related options were enabled, along with FXAA and Camera Blur...

Things are pretty tight in this test, but the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti still manages to take the lead. The Titan X is right on its tail, but the standard GeForce GTX 1080 and Radeon R9 Fury X are left in the dust.

DirectX 12 Gaming Performance

Tom Clancy’s The Division is a gorgeous, open-world, third-person shooter developed by Massive Entertainment and published by Ubisoft. The game features DirectX 11 and DirectX 12 support, with an array of advanced graphics techniques. Its built-in benchmark reports average frames per second, along with a typical frames per second number, which is an average of the fastest 99% of frames. We ran the game using its DX12 code path, with in-game image quality options set to their Ultra pre-set.

The new GeForce GTX 1080 Ti outperformed every other card we tested, yet again, at both resolutions. Its lead is fairly significant versus the standard GTX 1080, but there is only a tiny gap separating it from the Titan X.
