DICE has been AMD sponsored for years and AMD basically wrote their mantle and dx12 renderers. I seriously doubt it's incomplete, much more likely that it's just damage control to hide the fact that NVIDIA has better real world performance.

ITT nobody realises Nvidia released a driver for the BF1 beta, AMD has not.

Funny. I thought people were so excited over DX12 because it got rid of AMD's shitty driver disadvantage.
>>
>>56357503

What AMD has and what they have released are two different things. I have no doubt there will be day one driver support from AMD for the release of the game - they just haven't provided support for the beta.

>>56357531

You still need driver tweaks to squeeze performance. All we know right nowq is that DX12 provides negative scaling over DX11 in the beta - thats all. Things may change upon release or they may not.

>>
>>56358294
The actual reason is that most studios rush shit out the door, or hire a horde of monkeys to do the programming, or both. With DX11, Nvidia and AMD usually end up reengineering the entire renderer, trying to manually configure and work around all the developer's retardation. With DX12, the developers are given more raw access and shit gets fucked if they fuck it.

>>56357433
Except Nvidia cards perform worse in DX12 too. And we already know that Frostbite 3 performs well on AMD cards, both in DX11 and in Mantle. Battlefield 1 is far from the first game to use it, or to implement a bare metal API into it. It's a beta. If you're taking anything from it in terms of performance, after being explicitly told not to by the developers, you have brain problems.

In literally every other game, there are performance gains across the board. DICE isn't done writing the DX12 implementation for the game. It's in beta. Like 3 or 4 other posts have pointed this out.

From a pure numbers perspective gaming IS AMD. GCN powers a lot of Apple products (as limited as its gaming scene is), it powers both trhe xbone and ps4 and lastly is powering every radeon card built since 2012.

GCN's presence outstrips Nvidia's by a considerable margin.

Not as much as you may think these days and that still pales in comparison to the number of consoles out there. Another year of the same growth and AMD will be looking very, very healthy against Nvidia.

Worst of all is FreeSync is fucking open source, Nvidia could have picked it up for themselves, but they're thinking "nah, lets just fuck our consumers over and create a mess instead of allowing this new technology to become commonplace and adapted everywhere"

The Gsync shit is a good example of what Nvidia's going to do to the market if they get a monopoly. Hope you shills all have your buttholes prepared.

More gigglebytes.
>>
>>56361674

>Worst of all is FreeSync is fucking open source,

The technology behind freesync is years old but to be able to slap the freesync label on a product it still needs to meet certain requirements from AMD (and I doubt the testing is done for free).

Still there are over 100 freesync screens on the market (101 iirc) and considerably less gync screens. Even more annoyingly most gysnc screens are relatively small and only tend to be 1080p, 1440p and a few of those crazy ultra-wide resolutions with very few (if any) gysnc screens being 4k and large size (as in, 30" upwards).

>>
>>56361798

It was "broken" recently because in many situations it gave negative scaling gpu wise. What few sites tested though is it gave some fairly heft improvements to cpu usage and due to that minimum frame rates on anything but the latest and greatest cpu.

For alleviating some of the cpu bottleneck it did a good job (as thats what the dev's blog post was about) but too many people were expecting enormous performance gains no matter the hardware configuration which just didn't happen.

tl;dr game is surprisingly cpu bound (unlike the previous game) and people were doing gpu testing and wondering why nothing changed.
>>
>>56361734
There are 4K 27" GSync screens AFAIK, expensive as all fuck though, as you'd expect.
>>
>>56361734
The situation is still fucked though, I bet adaptive sync would've been a standard like 4k and IPS now if it weren't for this brand split. AMD is trying to make it more commonplace but no marketshare, and Nvidia are too Jewish to adapt it.

Thankfully all the consoles use AMD so FreeSync TVs might be a thing. Shit's gonna be great.

Sometimes your GPU cant handle it, sometimes the game itself is locked.

>>56361909

Word was Intel was going to support freesync for their igpu but iirc none of their products actually do. Hell if Intel does end up supporting freesync its basically game over.

Not necessarily. Frame time variance is still there and it's the major source of stutter. It gets rid of tearing or in the case of VSync it does make things smoother. If your frame time is fucked up though, it's still going to be fucked up with FreeSync (or GSync).

no. even at 144Hz you still have screen tearing. its not as bad as say 60Hz but its still present unless you have some sort of adaptive sync

>>56361909
if anything that might force all freesync displays to stop cheaping out and making lower freesync ranges on their panels. a lot of the current freesync panels in the market have 35Hz minimum to 90Hz maximum freesync range despite being 144Hz monitors and what not
a lot of console games run 30 or sub 30fps and (at least with my monitor) if i go below the freesync range (30-144) the display has this slight flickering

>>56361861
youll regret this decision and will make your card obsolete faster than it needs to be. its never a bad idea to have more ram and as someone who used hd 5770 1gb gddr5 and 4gb ram for like 6 years i can tell you that vram is the first and biggest issue when it comes to "future proofing" or at least being able to run shit at the lowest possible settings.
>>
>>56366970
>vram biggest issue
Nope.
>vram biggest issue for lowest possible settings
Even more wrong.

The reference card with the 'normal' amount of VRAM is almost always the most optimal price/performance value for a given GPU. If you want to waste your money and you literally don't trust the engineers who built the GPU, then feel free to buy the version with the higher amount of VRAM.

AMD is dead meme comes to life - AMD just paid over $300 million plus quarterly payments to GloFo to not have to not have to live up to their previous wafer production agreements. On top of that, AMD is issuing a warrant for 75 million shares (9% dilution) at $5.98/share (roughly 20% discounted as of close today) to GloFo's majoriy owner and Abu Dhabi holding company.

Literally fucked.

If you would actuallz bother reading the thread then you wouldn't actually make retarded posts like the one you just did.

This probably was told over 50 times in this thread already, but the devs already said that they ported the DX11 code to DX12 to "just werk" and that they're going to optimize it for the coming 2 months before release to actually take advantage of the API.

>devs port source code from API A to API B
>source didn't change, just minor shit to make it work in API B
>explicitly say that it's far from finished
>HURR DURR DX12 GIVES NO ADVANTAGE
>HURR DURR DX12 IS DEAD ON ARRIVAL
>HURR DURR AMD ON SUICIDE WATCH

Sometimes this board makes me question humanity.
>>
>>56366541
Not really, if two weeks before launch Betas help devs to fix some bugs and a couple performance issues, then two months before launch Betas makes up for more than enough time to optimize the fuck out of it.

Good news because the core gameplay is already there, now all that's left is fixing bugs and making it run smooth, DICE actually has a pretty good schedule going on now.
>>
>>56369122
DX12 has been out for over a year and BF1 has been in development for like 3 years. They've had plenty of time to optimize. Why are they focusing on DX11? Because DX11 is just far superior.
>>
>>56368131
>that Fury X performance
>DX12 barely implemented
Feels so fucking good having bought that card guys.
It ages like wine, it was a great card back when I bought it, being able to play so much shit at 144fps, and now it's getting better and better.

FEELS GOOD
>>
>>56369291
Because DX12 is Win10 only you fucking retard.
>>
>>56369291
Because it has a bigger marketshare you idiot, you need a GPU that can do DX12 and you need Win10 to do DX12.

Of fucking course they're going to optimize the bigger profit margin first.
>>
>>56356547

Did you notice where when you start the game it tells you 'This is a pre-release version of game development. Some parts of the game might not function correctly (if at all).' Or something along those lines.
>>
>>56369291
dx11 has a wider audience. you can hit everything from 400/5000 series and up, whereas with Dx12 you only get 7000/600 series and up.
>>
>>56369043
wsj are intel shills. Don't listen to them. BUY BUY BUY

That's odd. Why would anyone make an API that is locked to one operating system version?

Seems dumb to make anything DX12 if only Windows 10 can use it.
>>
>>56369321
>dropped 30 cents after hours
Yeah I think i might buy back some if it drops to 6$ but it's just been consistently dropping day over day lately.
>>
>>56369325
Everyone is jumping ship anyways, more and more people are leaving Win7 & Win8/8.1 to use Win10.

Most of the systems using WinXP have been upgraded to Win7 and Win10 aswell.

As a fulltime Pajeet I can say that Microsoft never released an OS with such a quick and massive growing userbase as with Win10, no surprise since it was pretty much forced.
>>
>>56369295
can confirm.. the dx12 integration is garbage though at the moment, it causes random stutters throughout the game and worse fps at times than with dx11

they will likely push out real code, 1-2 months after release like they did with mantle on bf4
>>
>>56366694
>>56366684

Ashes is literally an AMD sponsored game that's a pilot game for ASync compute. Just as BF4 was a pilot game for Mantle, which explains why AMD's results were so shit on DX11 - Because both games were meant to show off AMD's new feature by half-assing everything else in comparison. Nvidia's results strugged at first as well, until they threw the driver team at the problem post-release.
>>
>>56356592

If they did the same for shitting on AMD with the last Tomb Raider and Deux EX, why wouldn't they continue doing it?
>>
>>56369325
>That's odd. Why would anyone make an API that is locked to one operating system version?
>Seems dumb to make anything DX12 if only Windows 10 can use it.
DirectX only exists to force you to use certain MS products. They wanted everyone to use win10 so they locked DX12 to it, they don't care if it holds back pc games due to slow adoption. Same thing happened with DX10 they made it vista only and it caused almost a decade of games to be made mainly for DX9.

Hopefully it backfires and Vulkan kills DX12 long term.
>>
>>56360510

>>56358976
It's broken in Tomb Raider, BF1 and Hitman (DX12 version of Hitman actually lowers quality of displayed textures). Really if you think of it only game that shows massive gains with DX12 is Ashes of Benchmarks and that game is simply made to shill for AMD cards while no one besides reviewers play it. AMD should stick to Vulkan.

>Freesync is open source.

Well if Nvidia was smart enough they would just add Freesync support. Gsync was always a meme, I cannot for the hell of it figure out who to fuck even uses it. Also AMD is no better than Nvidia, don't ever fall for this "muh massive faceless corporation is friendly unlike yours!" meme. AMD is simply behind so they have to play the underdog protagonist card, they would be the same if not worst if they were in Nvidia's/Intel's position.

not remembering dx10 and pricy as fuck gtx8800 768mb.
not remembering literally 3 dx10 games,all shit except stalker(dx10 was patched).
not getting grand scheme of things where steam(pc,dx11,not enough linux for anyone important to care), microsoft(xbone, paradoxically developer of d3d 11,12 itd),sony(leopenlegel) are not friends,au contraire.
MS wants to make pc gaming user expirience as shitty as possible so normies buy xbone.(they even give windblows for free so your logic is invalid and when was the last time anyone of you even bougt windows.iso), sony wont mind.
All we as consumers can do is install linux and buy games for steam and gog(they are platforms at this point) and play linux version.
Chances that that will happen are close to 0.000001%.
So, enjoy your buttcancer, you literally cant win unless you stop playing.
