Here we go again. I don't know whom to believe, but I suspect it's AMD's fault for not working with the game developer to optimize HairWorks on their cards. NVIDA makes the source code available to those with a licence, so there's nothing stopping AMD from buying a licence and optimizing it with the gamer developer.
Wasn't it AMD's drivers which haven't had a WHQL release for 160+ days now? What does that say about the company?
Check out the non-HairWorks performance of both cards - NVIDIA is slightly faster here too.

"We've been working with CD Projeckt Red from the beginning. We've been giving them detailed feedback all the way through," AMD's chief gaming scientist Richard Huddy told Ars Technica. "Around two months before release, or thereabouts, the GameWorks code arrived with HairWorks, and it completely sabotaged our performance as far as we're concerned. We were running well before that... it's wrecked our performance, almost as if it was put in to achieve that goal."
