Total War: Warhammer III is a turn-based strategy and real-time tactics video game developed by Creative Assembly and published by Sega. It is part of the Total War series, and the third to be set in Games Workshop's Warhammer Fantasy fictional universe (following 2016's Total War: Warhammer and 2017's Total War: Warhammer II). The game was announced on February 3, 2021 and was released on February 17, 2022.(Wikipedia).

Engine: TW Engine 3 (Warscape). We test using the Ultra preset, with unlimited video memory enabled, DX11 API.

Lastly we come to Total War: Warhammer III. Once more at 1440p, things are very closely matched between the RX 7700 XT, RX 6800 and RTX 3070 Ti at 1440p. The RX 7700 XT is 27% faster than its predecessor however, while it comes in 17% ahead of the 4060 Ti 16GB.

Up at 4K, the 1% lows drop off on most AMD cards, but the 7700 XT remains competitive with the RX 6800, while still coming in 15% more than its Nvidia counterpart.
