Phoronix: Shadow of Mordor Performance For The GeForce GTX 1080 On Linux

Shadow of Mordor is a beautiful game on Linux, but quite demanding on the hardware. Here's how it performs with Linux...

Thanks for the numbers Mike! I know that manual tests are PITA, but a few selected benchmarks are nice to see.

Incidentally, at 4K those numbers are somewhat lower than Windows, but not massively lower. Here's a link to a 4K Shadows of Mordor bench from gamespot in their review: http://static5.gamespot.com/uploads/...e+%2813%29.png

In short, it's a 1080p-1440p game on the GTX 1080.

Yes, which is light years ahead of the $650 Fury-X, which is a 0 FPS game at 1080p due to crashes.

A 51 FPS average at 4K seems pretty playable to me.

A 51 FPS average at 4K seems pretty playable to me.

SoM doesn't require a very high frame rate to play, but a 21fps min could still get pretty choppy in places.

Also, I can't recall if the benchmark is faster or slower than the actual game but I seem to recall people saying it was one of those and not necessarily representative.

@Michael

Very thanks for put manual test, is more complicated but this tests are needed

Maybe in future possible try any game of saint row series

Obviously, duh.

but a 21fps min could still get pretty choppy in places.

You know nothing about low fps, i completed this game @ 15 fps.

Absolutely playable, but bad result for the fastest consumer card on the market. If we take a look at some windows benchmarks elsewhere, we can see that much weaker cards outperform this result easily. The port is bad, very bad.

I tried to benchmark R9 380 2GB with the latest mesa drivers, but after a loading screen my system freezes. I have problems (system freeze after loading screen or after end of test at results dialog) with SoM benchmark and mesa drivers since may. Last time when all worked fine was 23.04.2016 (next tests after 1-2 weeks caused problems).
