Nvidia BTFO, How will Nvidiots ever defend this?

Something something power consumption.

Performance > power consumption

>my good old r9 390 with the highest minimum frames
Feels pretty good man, still happy with that purchase, might go for an r7 in the coming months.
>>59963083
Holy shit, the gimping is real.
>>59963469
Buying Nvidia is a shitty cycle of constant upgrades.

Hawaii is the 2500k of GPUs.
When will they fix their stupid Directx 12 drivers?
1. Frostbite is an AMD-sponsred engine.
2. The Nvidia cards with single digit FPS have 2GB of VRAM
3. Power consumption

hawaii is comfy

>more expensive than 1060
>only 3.7 higher average fps
>5 fps lower minimum
enjoy your fluctuating mess, fuccboi!

There is no magic driver fix.
None.
Because their hardware can't run DX12.
>>59963591
1. Frostbite was developed by DICE who helped develop Mantle, which then became the foundation for DX12 and Vulkan.
2. It's almost like Nvidia doesn't give a shit about future performance so they can sell you a new card in a year.
3. Thank God for that power consumption, it really helps when my hardware is taxed the fuck out pushing 20fps. While the competition uses slightly more power and slays Nvidia.
>>59963627
The best part is it will still be a great card at 1080p until Navi comes out.
>>59963654
>slays
lol, $20 more for 4 more fps and 5 less minimum fps
>>59963681
>480
>more expensive than 1060
u wot m8
>>59963721
depending on region the 1070 isn't much more expensive than the 480.
I guess it has to do with nvidia's distribution.
>>59963733
That's insane. 1070 is over 100$ more in America.
>>59963764
yeah there's definitely some variability.
here a full size 1070 can be snagged for only $50 USD more than a decent 8GB 480.
>>59963083
DICE has been sponsored by AMD for the last ~7 years. No surprise that the competition performs worse.
>>59963083
Yet a 770 gets nearly 40fps on 1440p/Ultra. Crazy how that works.

used 390x still doing a solid 1440 vsync in most titles.

>all of a sudden AMD fags move the goalposts and hate power consumption
Make up your minds
>>59963083
>hawaii still shitting on NVIDIA
Man GCN is fucking nice.
>Nvidias year old midrange just got BTFO by AMDs newest, best offering
Woah!
>>59964011
you are a dense motherfucker
>>59963160
implying shillvidia investors will come in and spot muh power bill.
>>59963188
stating that performance is more important than power consumption.
Unless you are mining or boincing your card will be at idle or near it a majority of the time pulling the same power as a lightbulb. It's just something to argue about.
>>59963083
>Have to exclude all Nvidia's real offerings and only include their cheapest poorfag shit meant for Indians to make AMD look good
I guess AMD is fine if you only use your computer to play crap like Dota and LoL.
>>59963438
I'm not even sure I need Vega, my 390 Nitro works on 1440 too well.
>>59963861
You mean toms hardware is shilling for amd? The same website that recommend the P4 Prescott over the athonl 64?
>>59964725
Fuck off, Maki's a slut.
whats the point of forcing dx12 on nvidia cards when they perform magnitudes better in dx11 mode?
looks like a misleading benchmark.
>>59964947
Because DX11 offers a subpar experience to DX12. And performs worse.
>>59964980

DX12 just looks so much better. The smoke, the lighting, weapon flash.
>>59964947
Nvidia cards dont perform worse in DX12, they actually perform better, it's just AMD card perform betterer.
>>59963628
>more expensive
Not where I live.
