Shadow of the Tomb Raider | Resident Evil 2 Remake | Forza Horizon 4 | Assassin's Creed: Odyssey | CoD WWII | The Division 2 | DiRT Rally 2.0 - BENCHMARK w/ Ryzen 5 1600 - 1080p medium / normal

In the mid-range GPU battle of 2015 the GTX 960 (GM206-300) went up against AMD's Tonga-based graphics cards. With 4 GB VRAM and plenty of horsepower to handle high settings, these GPUs were a great pick for gamers who didn't want to break the bank back then. Do they still have what it takes to run modern AAA games with moderate settings?
