Aorus XTREME RTX 2070 Graphics Card Review

Gaming Performance
Shadow of the Tomb Raider
The Aorus Xtreme pushed some superb gaming performance in Shadow of the Tomb Raider too, breaking past 100 FPS at 1080p. It also delivered very playable rates at 1440p, scoring 79 FPS. It’s no slouch at 4K either, scoring 51 FPS at high settings is impressive, and reaching 60 should be a few tweaks away. Keep in mind, only the 2080 Ti exceed 60 FPS at these settings.
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided
It may be an older game, but Deus Ex is still an absolute monster of a game for testing graphics cards. The performance was great at 1080p and 1440p, but 4K saw the frame rate drop to 41.4 FPS; perhaps stick with medium settings at 4K for this one.
Ghost Recon: Wildlands
The Aorus Xtreme did even better in Ghost Recon: Wildlands though, scoring our third highest frame rate ever at 1080p, fourth at 1440p, and fourth again at 4K. This isn’t an easy game to run, but the Xtreme makes light work of it.
Middle Earth: Shadow of War
Another new entry to our revised review format, and a great one too. This game reports very low minimum FPS on all cards, which may be a glitch in the scene transition. However, the average FPS from the Xtreme is solid up to 1440p. It’s very much playable at 4K too, with 49 FPS at High settings; tweak a few settings and 60 FPS is surely achievable.
Battlefield V
Some of the best performance yet here, with the RTX 2070 holding firmly onto fourth place in all three tests here. It even reached 54 FPS at 4K, which is mighty impressive for such a visually stunning game.
