Gaming Benchmarks
Shadow of the Tomb Raider is an action-adventure video game developed by Eidos Montréal in conjunction with Crystal Dynamics and published by Square Enix. It continues the narrative from the 2013 game Tomb Raider and its sequel Rise of the Tomb Raider.
In Shadow of the Tomb Raider, the Zotac RTX 2070 mini did well. At 1080p, averaged 101 FPS, in 1440p it is able to average just above 60 frames per second at 68 FPS, and in 4k, the card was still able to deliver 36 FPs. In 4k at the highest settings, the card did struggle from time to time and was, for the most part playable. However, for smooth performance, the GPU really did well in 1440p.
Witcher 3 closes the chapter on Geralt’s life. The game features a massive open world that the player can explore. Witcher 3 uses REDEngine developed independently by CD Projekt RED. The game engine features stunning visuals.
In Witcher 3, the performance of the Zotac RTX 2070 mini is great across all 3 resolutions. In 1080p it delivered 89 FPS, at 1440p 69 FPS was the average, and at 4k the card delivered 43 FPS. Again, I think the sweet spot for high resolution and good performance is at 1440p.
Middle Earth: Shadow of War is an action RPG game based on the novels of J. R. R. Tolkien. It’s the sequel to Monolith’s successful Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor game and the events of the game take place after The Hobbit but before the Lord of the Rings. The game builds upon the nemesis system that made the first game such a surprise hit, and it’s just brutal to PC hardware.
The Zotac RTX 2070 mini did well in Shadow of War in both 1080p and 1440p. In 1080p, the GPU averaged 113 fps and in 1440p, it averaged 79 fps. At 4k, 47 FPS was playable on the RTX 2070 mini.
Far Cry 5 is an action-adventure first-person shooter video game developed by Ubisoft Montreal and Ubisoft Toronto and published by Ubisoft for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. It is the successor to the 2014 video game Far Cry 4, and the fifth main installment in the Far Cry series. The game was released on March 27, 2018
The Zotac RTX 2070 performed well in Far Cry 5. At 1080p, I was able to average over 100 frames per second at 117 FPS and at 1440p, was still over 60 fps, with a score of 89. 4k dropped us back into the 40 FPS mark with 46 FPS average.
