Middle Earth: Shadow of War PC Performance Review

AMD VS Nvidia – RX 480 VS GTX 1060 – Benchmarks from Lowest to Ultra Settings

When comparing Middle Earth Shadow of Mordor we found that the performance differences between AMD’s RX 480 and Nvidia’s GTX 1060 6GB to be almost negligible in most cases.

Both GPUs performed similarly at all graphical settings with only a minimal difference of 2 or so frames per second on average.  

Overall at the game’s higher graphical settings Nvidia seems to have the advantage here, though it is fairly minimal. Sadly we have no RX Vega GPUs to compare here, so it is hard to know if Vega changes the situation. 

From what we can see here the choice between Green and Red makes very little difference in Middle Earth, which is good news for consumers.
