Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Wildlands Performance Review

Decent review...I really appreciate the use of "common" components vs uber high end CPU's and GPU's that 2-3% of the population has. The bar charts for CPU usage are difficult to digest...maybe a simple % used graph would be better. Also a look at CPU scaling would be helpful...clock speed in particular but also core count scaling.

I played the Beta - We got in a jeep, drove off a cliff, crashed then got outa the jeep and started running to where we needed to go.

I have to agree. I enjoyed seeing the use of an I5 since I'm still using my 3570k @ 4.2Ghz. In fact I have the GTX 1060 to go with it so this becomes even more relevant of a review to me. It's also very close in performance I can expect from my 3 alienware laptops. with GTX 1060's.

"We got in a jeep, drove off a cliff, crashed then got outa the jeep and started running to where we needed to go."

lol That's... not good. No penalty for being reckless.

I'm not going to mention anything about the review, nothing!

What I am going to talk about is why every time I come on this website my Sony Z1 Compact mobile phone suddenly gets extremely hot and terribly slow and drains battery rapid , this does not happen on any other website I visit, do you really need to display so many adverts all over the page, what else can it be!.

I will stop coming on your mobile phone killing website, my phone never gets this warm even when playing demanding games.

Goodbye - www.tomsMobileDrainingHardware.com

Good thing CPU Usage was included. Most review sites should do this, it goes to show how quad cores are starting to die out. That i5-6500 has still some little bit of headroom left though. You could probably stick a 980 Ti in it and have some minor bottlenecking at 1080p. Would be more interesting to see how the i7-6700/7700 does. Those should have plenty of headroom left, unless it's 4K then we can with pretty much any CPU that has decent IPC.

This game requires a very good graphics card to play if you want the game to look somewhat decent. I have a GTX 760 TI and i can only run it on low. Since it is open world, there is so much stuff for the gpu to load and render, it eats alot.

"Common components" are fine but what is wrong with including a GTX1080 in the mix especially since the 1080ti is available now and it lowered the prices of the 1080s.

I enjoyed this review and its relevance to me since I have an i7-3770k and a GTX 1060.

Also, a close friend I served with is in this game! They used real active duty and former Reconnaissance Men for this game which I think is awesome.

they need to work on flying the chopper and vehicles. Not as easy as BF4. Other than that the graphics look great.

I am running an ASUS ROG GTX 1070 and it runs smooth.
