Shadow of Mordor
Once again, the GPU struggles to keep up with the GTX 950 and reported a much lower average frame-rate. Gauging performance on its own, the frame-rate is very respectable, but when you consider the GTX 950 costs about the same and has been out for some time, it’s underwhelming.
Yeah, the problem really is that old stock of 950s bought by the stores pre-brexit is competitive on price right now!
There is a Powercolor 460 for sale on OCUK for £99 right now, which despite the 2GB memory does have a lot of value for money going for it, if you really really cannot stretch to buying a 470.
I feel that £130+ for a 4GB 460 is just asking too much – maybe £120 as a premium over £99.
The Vulkan and DX12 results here and on other reviews do show a lot of potential. Getting 60fps (or close enough) on 1080 Ultra in Doom is a massive achievement.
I predict a major driver release from amd with a major performance increase. Maybe not but I think so
