Benchmarks - Shogun 2

Where2buy: amazon.co.uk

Praised both by critics and gamers, the latest instalment of the Total War series takes strategy enthusiasts back to 16th-century Japan and presents a lavish blend of 3D real-time battles and turn-based management.

A number of 2,560x1,600 results are missing here because the ultra-quality benchmark only runs at this resolution if cards have a >1GB framebuffer. Radeon HD 7850 and GTX 560 Ti 448 match each other, and HD 7870 gets pretty darn close to GTX 580.
