PC Performance Review at 1080p Ultra Settings on Total Lockdown

So now that our core components are all in place we would expect to see around 64 FPS in Total Lockdown at 1080p resolution, on Ultra settings. Make some adjustments to the graphics options and you could boost this up to 89 FPS for High graphics settings.

Bumping up the in game screen resolution to 1440p our expected FPS would be 48 FPS at Ultra graphics setting or around 68 FPS on High.

How this build performs for other popular games

Looking at Horizon: Zero Dawn we see this pc build is likely to get 31FPS on Ultra and 43FPS on High graphics settings. In contrast we can expect Doom Eternal to return 30FPS on Ultra and 41FPS when lowered to High. Another popular game at the moment is Grand Theft Auto VI, which is 0 FPS running at Ultra, and 0 on High graphics settings.

An Alternative Total Lockdown Graphics Card Option for 1080p

If you are looking for a graphics card from Nvidia instead of the one we have selected in this build then you could try GeForce GTX 2050, which has a 4% worse performance difference, so still similar capabilities. We have chosen it based on its price-performance figure as well, as it is currently priced at $149.99.
