Shadow Of The Tomb Raider has good graphics quality and the gameplay isn’t that different compared to the predecessor which is Rise Of The Tomb Raider Raider. You can expect the usual stuff like climbing mountains, raiding tombs, solving riddles, and a lot of gunfights.

Now, Shadow Of The Tomb Raider isn’t a light game especially if you want to bump the graphics settings. For gamers on a budget, the presets up to Medium aren’t that heavy, so most not-so-expensive dGPUs can run this game at least on the Lowest quality. For this comparison, we have picked two good inexpensive graphics cards – the NVIDIA GeForce MX450 (GDDR6/25W) and MX350 (25W).
