Sapphire Pure Platinum Z68 Motherboard Review

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.

All settings are pushed to mixed high/ultra settings as shown below.

Total War Shogun 2 is a very demanding game and our testing shows positive results for the Sapphire system build, averaging 45 frames per second.

  1. As good as it gets

    ALways a shame their products dont support SLI.

  2. Very fair review. It seems more aimed at enthusiast users with a little more knowledge of the bios. When I read the reviews of ASROCK and asus boards, there are settings basically which take out all of the work. Just one setting for a clock speed for the processor installed. This is a great idea.

    I wouldnt have a problem with the sapphire ;’slightly old fashioned’ bios settings, but for a newbie,. they would be better investing in a different board with UEFI, kiddie proof settings.

  3. DIdnt Sapphire poach some of the engineers from ASUS or something? probably why they are doing so well with the board designs.
