Providing an excellent mix of strategy and action, Total War: Rome II's epic turn-based gameplay can swallow hours of your life. Our 60-second benchmark uses the built-in Extreme preset at 1080p and the Ultra preset at 4K.

The new 900-series were plenty fast already. Building on that gaming momentum, Gigabyte turns in excellent performances. A 33 per cent lead over a standard GTX 780 Ti is no small feat.
