Total War: Rome II

Providing an excellent mix of strategy and action, Total War: Rome II's epic turn-based gameplay can swallow hours of your life. Our 45-second benchmark uses the built-in Ultra preset across all resolutions.

Yep, R9 380X is very much an R9 380 with a cherry on top. Performance is boosted by as much as 16 per cent in Total War: Rome II, but a game as punishing as this requires more brute power to remain smooth at 1440p with the extreme-quality preset.
