Shogun 2 is set in 16th-century feudal Japan, in the aftermath of the Ōnin War. The country is fractured into rival clans led by local warlords, each fighting for control. The player takes on the role of one of these warlords, with the goal of dominating other factions and claiming his rule over Japan. The standard edition of the game will feature a total of eight factions (plus a ninth faction for the tutorial), each with a unique starting position and different political and military strengths.
Real world testing can fluctuate a little, especially with dynamic environments. With this test we are using the built in benchmark results via Steam so readers can directly compare against their own hardware. Direct X 11 720p results are below – neither card really had the power to handle this engine at 1080p.
Shogun 2 is one of the more demanding Direct X 11 titles currently available. At 720p the HD6770 averages around 67 fps while the HD6670 struggles a little more, averaging 43 fps.
Them seem a decent make and if Amazon stock them, their warranty system is excellent regardless of the manufacturer. This is why I order from amazon all the time, no quibble returns if problems occur.
I would however look at a passive card for a media center, although many of these cards dont generate much noise at all. I read a thread where a guy disabled the fan on his card and underclocked it by 100mhz and it was fine! (6670)
6670 for a media center would be my first choice. I currently use an nvidia board but its old and about to die. might look at a passive 6670
Id go for a passive solution in this sector.
