Middle-Earth Shadow of War: PC graphics performance benchmark review

I don't have a screen shot handy but: I get 96 fps avg in the benchmark (1440p, Ultra settings, UHD Texture pack) with my 1080ti and 1700x clocked at 3.95Ghz in game I avg about 20% cpu usage and 99% GPU usage.

It runs great for me, I have seen others with that 45fps issue too. If you need a screen shot I will rerun and upload
I (and AMD) would LOVE to know what is causing that 45 FPS issue ...

I've also read that the AMD driver for the game's launch improved the performance about 20% over night (compared to their driver release before the latest one). Really good job on AMD's driver team imho.

I'm suffering from the 45fps.....only in the benchmark. In-game on Ultra I'm getting 85-90's for the most part. I have a GTX1080. It appears the benchmark doesn't load up my GPU core...it sits anywhere between 18% to 40%. Also the voltage is wacky...never over 1.000v, most of the run it's at .0863v.

Very odd.

Here is some video I made yesterday:



EDIT: I think the reason this one was lower was due to something else in the background.

Here is the log from when I first ran the benchmark:

I capped fps to 75 at 3440x1440@ultra settings. 6800k plus a 1080ti watercooled.

Here it runs great, at 1080p with my 1700 @ 4.0 DDR4 3333 and a GTX 1080 Ti on WC it was 128 fps.
