Is it still going to include that godwaful Gaming Evolved thing that nobody uses because it crashes games? When is AMD going to come up with something as good as Shadowplay?

amd is an icecream booth compared to nvidia-s shopping center, therefore their progress is slower.

this. GPU drivers should drop opengl altogether anyway.

We've actually been able to use AMD's hardware encoding via a plugin for OBS Studio.

But what is this gpu chill shit? lower input lag? how. I need someone to put this into english.

Nvidia already won. Even AMD's shill admits it.

what a waste of money and engineering time, amd are fucking retarded. shadowplay is literally only used by ignorant gaymers too dumb to set up OBS, they should have focused instead on removing the perf impact that using VCE while gaymen creates.

Digital signage is big for them (the system what puts a McDonald's menu up on all those screens at once, for example), as are casino gaming installations. Other stuff like that.

>>57873287
Pretty much anything involving big screens and a lot of GPU ports.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_signage

I just hope I can use the new ones without getting driver crashes and bluescreens like I do with any AMD driver from the last 4 months.

Oh, and the shitty playstv that I had to uninstall. Just copy shadowplay, AMD. That's all we want.

>>57873335

You know it's because they have such a budget to chuck at it? They got -incredibly- lucky with their chipsets for Maxwell but they are literally a shit tip company in all other areas? Driver support especially, and the way they purposefully prevent free/openGL development or nerf AMD cards with nVidia sponsored games is frankly disgusting.

You're American, you should understand the benefits of market competition, you (and the rest of /g/) should be throwing money at AMD or nVidia gets the monopoly over consumer cards and progress stagnates.

I constantly get driver crashes at the desktop not even doing anything. If it doesn't recover in time it leads to a BSOD citing atikmpag.sys. Very, very annoying when trying to get anything done. No amount of DDUing and reinstalling has done anything.

Haven't sent a bug report, because it is already well known with lots of people mad about it.

Throwing money at AMD because you hate NVIDIA is not competition, it's fanboyism. Buying the objectively best product for your use within your budget is competition.

>>57874434

>>57881208
it only says wattman won't work on gcn 1.0 which makes sense since they only support 4 p-states. built-in recording will probably work

>>57873617
No, its still competition.

amd keeps up with nvidia, but due to nvidia's constant shit practices, I cant support them while an alternative is viable, and amd is easily viable. They may not take the preformance crown, but for each price they aren't bad, and for anyone not retarded (any non 4k user) can push a monitor to its max frame rate with few exceptions.

now, take the cpu side, at least till zen, amd is not a viable option, at least for me. If push came to shove, I would likely get an intel, granted lowest end intel and see what zen does, but still go intel.

a company fucking you over and haveing shit buisness practices is a reasonabl reason to not support them when there are clearly other options.

>>57869228

Why don't you just cap your framerate in game? I've been doing this for years since before you could ever do it through drivers.

Chill only works in DX 9/10/11. Not even DX 12 yet and none of the other APIs.

This is what I figured, I like AMD fine and have owned both Nvidia and AMD GPUs, I just wasn't confident in the RX 480's chops at 2560x1440. Plus I actually got my GTX 1070 for only $385 and it's an overclocked dual-bios model.

There's no evidence that the GTX 1080 has any of the same memory issues the 970 had. I'm pretty confident we'd know by now.

I think part of that problem was the ethically wrong business practices by Intel on that front. They purposefully stunted AMD from competing fairly and paid a small fine for it. Smells similar to Microsofts push to keep competitors from even sprouting back in the 90's and early 00's. Buy em out with a deal they can't refuse or litigate/freeze em out via OEM's.

a texture is a texture, and if its 512x512 its pretty much the same regardless of what you do with that space, so you have 100~ people on screen at once, with very little shared resources, all demanding draw calls, all demanding processing power, or witcher 3, where good use of textures and recurring details can happen.

tw3 may look prettier but it has less going on any given scene, and when you are on your own, yea, wow will demand less.

>>57898674
>I see no reason why borderless window mode wouldn't work with 7
That's because the desktop has a different refresh rate than the game you are playing, and at borderless mode it will display both at the same time.
Up until now it was impossible to use freesync when in borderless, because of that issue. And when you use multiple monitors, it's almost a must to use borderless instead of fullscreen.

>>57898699
actually it doesn't, monitor doesn't care what windows tells it it will switch to whatever driver tells it

when you switch freesync on your monitor it jsut doesn't scale refresh rate and keeps it constant but it can change it at any time

>>57898699
Oh I know why it's an issue, what I meant is that if freesync worked on 7 before, it should also support the new borderless window mode, Despite the looks of the UI being changed, I don't think there's been any huge changes in the way UI is rendered between 7 and 10, at most you might have to disable Aero but that's no big deal.

>>57898663
Holy shit that is insane.

So this... is the power of GCN.

>>57898749
What I meant was that in fullscreen there is only the game to render and absolutely nothing else, no desktop.
So every time a new frame was rendered, it would be displayed on the screen.
But in borderless mode, you have different applications with different framerates that would get ready to display at different times.
The best solution would be to sync to the currently active window. This would cause other windows to tear or stutter, but the game would be free of tearing. Up until now this wasn't possible though, I even contacted AMD support about it. They said they might be able to add borderless freesync in the future, and it seems now it's finally there.

>>57898749
>>57898813
Oh and the Desktop was overriding the refresh rate of the driver, that's why borderless window mode never tears.
