If you\u2019ve just acquired a new game and you\u2019re not sure what settings or resolution your PC can run it at without stutter and lag, a benchmark is a good way to try out various profiles before you dive in. Shadow of the Tomb Raider<\/em> is one title with a built-in benchmark that\u2019s easy to run. <\/p>\n

This benchmark is also a very common test that reviewers run on laptops to put their GPUs to the test. Shadow of the Tomb Raider <\/em>has ray tracing, so it\u2019s a particularly good way to see how well a gaming rig can handle ray tracing. If you want to see how your GPU stacks up to other systems around the internet, the Tomb Raider <\/em>benchmark is one of the best ways to do that. <\/p>\n

Here\u2019s how to run it.<\/p>\n
