Today’s GPUs are supremely capable and graphics in the latest games are utterly spectacular, so why do I not get the same wow factor that I got 26 years ago?

This month I’ve been testing: Ghost of Tsushima. Nixxes has done one heck of a great job porting it to the PC, especially its support for the PS5 Dualsense controller. Oh, and I’ve also been delving into a Ryzen 7 5700X3D, as an upgrade for a 5600X. More on this soon.

Last week, UL Benchmarks released Steel Nomad, a new graphics test for 3DMark, with the ambition that it will eventually replace Time Spy Extreme as the most used benchmark for GPUs. Although I’ve been running it a fair bit of late, on a variety of different systems, I tried it briefly before launch while collating a performance analysis of Ghost of Tsushima.

Steel Nomad and Ghost of Tsushima both have superb graphics, either through a combination of the very latest rendering techniques and high-resolution assets or because the art direction is top-notch.
