Total War: Warhammer III is a turn-based strategy and real-time tactics video game developed by Creative Assembly and published by Sega. It is part of the Total War series, and the third to be set in Games Workshop's Warhammer Fantasy fictional universe (following 2016's Total War: Warhammer and 2017's Total War: Warhammer II). The game was announced on February 3, 2021 and was released on February 17, 2022. (Wikipedia).

Engine: TW Engine 3 (Warscape). We test using the Ultra preset, with unlimited video memory enabled, DX11 API.

 

Closing out with Total War: Warhammer III, this DX11 titles runs without a hitch on the B580 – in fact it runs brilliantly well, with the Battlemage GPU coming in 9% faster than the RTX 4060, and 5% ahead of the RX 7600 XT.

It's very playable at 1440p, too, still averaging over 60fps, while it holds leads of around 10% over both the RTX 4060 and RX 7600 XT.
