Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor
 |
One of the highest-rated games of 2014, Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor is an excellent open-world adventure and uses the LithTech Jupiter EX to deliver eye-catching visuals. Putting the strain on these mid-to-high-end cards, we test with Ultra quality settings at FHD and QHD, and notch things down to Very High quality for 4K UHD.
That touch of extra performance over the other GTX 980 in this line-up does show at lower resolutions. Of greater importance for the enthusiast is the 20 per cent performance lead over a well-clocked GTX 970 JetStream.
