Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 2GB
CPU: Intel Core i5 3470
Memory: 8GB DDR3 1333mhz (1x8GB)
Motherboard: Gigabyte B75M-D2V
 
Solution
Official recommended requirements are as follows on Steam (as always, to be taken not with a pinch, but a whole handful of salt...)
OS: 64-bit: Win 7, Win 8
Processor: Intel Core i7-3770, 3.4 GHz | AMD FX-8350, 4.0 GHz
Memory: 8 GB RAM
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 | AMD Radeon HD 7950
DirectX: Version 11
Network: Broadband Internet connection
Hard Drive: 40 GB available space

Ignoring them, as always, and getting on with my thoughts...


medium-high should manage to keep 60fps at 1080p; hardware is kinda ok (could be better, although it's not bad already), but that 8GB single channel memory...

Provided the game already supports crossfire, you'll probably max it out.
If it doesn't and you need to run the game in single-card mode, you might be able to still max it out if that 280x is a 4GB VRAM model, otherwise high. The maxed out settings alone are considered additional content, you even need to download the high-def textures separately from the game...
 
Solution
with an i3-4130, gtx 750ti and 8gbs of ram, running at medium-ish (some are high, some are low, it's an auto detect) I get this:
2014-10-02 16:26:31 - ShadowOfMordor
Frames: 3015 - Time: 58203ms - Avg: 51.801 - Min: 40 - Max: 62
It plays 100% acceptable at those frames as well. The frame rate isn't the thing that's making it hard for me to keep playing that game.
See the full build in the 2nd blue box in my sig.

CPU and GPU usage at high settings fore shadow of Mordor.

I previously had Afterburner running HWINFO, struggling with it for some reason.

Do not rely on the in game bench marker by the way. I have run it 10 times with the exact same High settings and I have ranged from 68.9 to 83.5 average fps. Not once has it been consistent

Admirable
If the CPU is close to 100% percent load and the GPU is not even breaking a sweat, then the CPU is bottlenecking the card. I finally installed the game yesterday and monitored both CPU and GPU usage using afterburner and my CPU isn't even getting past 55% usage while both of my R9 280x's are in the 90% to 95% usage.
