Rise of the Tomb Raider

Awesome adventure, mind-boggling puzzles, intense action and breathtaking landscapes. We all know what to expect when Lara Croft sets out on a new mission, and Rise of the Tomb Raider is arguably one of the finest instalments in this hugely popular series.

Updated to the latest patch and using drivers from both sides optimised for the game, Titan X continues to stomp on everything else. It's 60 per cent faster than the previous Titan that bears a similar name.

And that's where contexualising it becomes difficult. The older Titan X, which cost $200 less at launch just over a year ago, isn't in the same league as Titan X Pascal: the 60 per cent lead is largely maintained at 4K in every game. Yet, on the other hand, it's not that much faster than a well-tuned GTX 1080.
