GeForce GTX 1070 Ti Review with NVIDIA Founders Edition and EVGA FTW2

Gears of War 4

Gears of War is a video game franchise created and originally owned by Epic Games, developed and managed by The Coalition, and owned and published by Microsoft Studios. The series focuses on the conflict between humanity, the subterranean reptilian hominids known as the Locust Horde, and their mutated counterparts, the Lambent & the Swarm. Gears of War 4 was released on October 11, 2016 for the PC and is an interesting game title in the sense that it must be run on Windows 10 Anniversary Edition. It uses the DirectX 12 API with features like async compute and tiled resources.

Microsoft and the developer (The Coalition) have worked hard to make the PC port not suck and have placed over 30 graphics cards settings in the option menu with over 100-plus options that you can adjust. We are using the ultra image quality preset with VSync turned off.

Gears of War 4 comes with a built-in benchmark that appears to be pretty decent and shows the average minimum framerate (bottom 5%) in the results. This is the benchmark that we ran on our graphics cards with Ultra image quality settings to see how they would perform.

1440P Benchmark Results: Gears of War 4 showed that the Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1070 G1 gaming can beat the Radeon RX Vega 56, so it shouldn’t be a surprise that the GeForce GTX 1070 Ti models bested even those numbers and performed higher at 1080P, 1440P and 4K screen resolutions.
