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.

There should be no doubt, the ASUS GeForce GTX 680 DirectCU II TOP is the fastest single-GPU card we've tested. It takes an SLI or CrossFire configuration to go one better, but there are no major surprises here, a factory-overclocked version of the world's fastest single-GPU card was always going to be quick. Question is, is it better than reference in all areas?
