Praised both by critics and gamers, the latest instalment of the Total War series takes strategy enthusiasts back to 16th-century Japan and presents a lavish blend of 3D real-time battles and turn-based management.

Can you hear the GPU pain in Total War: Shogun 2? These high-end GPUs are no match for the game's ultra-quality settings and three-screen rendering.

Dropping down to 15fps on a regular basis, the game is about as smooth as my three-day beard.

A 6GB framebuffer cannot help when the GPU and memory are being hammered, and the sub-par performance isn't a memory-size issue.
