Why AMD will perform better than NVIDIA in DirectX 12

I would not be opposed to instantly locking any thread with this subject.

It's pointless.

then new threads get made about it. think of it like an idiot quarantine, with people wandering by with sticks to poke them occasionally.

Thats 6 very helpful posts all bang on topic now 7.
If you're going to join the thread you could at least add to it ,i got notified for tat.
Plus its like me talkin politics ,i dont vote so its pointless as is pissing in a thread you dont like just dont view it, moronic.

And as for on topic i voted with cash Amd r9 390 will keep me sweet for cheap till 14nm.

That's how I felt about the matter. If I have to wait longer, 8GB is a nice combo if you run CFX long term. I keep saying, you might not want that 8GB now but, you very well might want it in a couple years if 14nm keeps getting delayed or if it has issues or is simply too expensive. The 390 seemed like the best middle ground, at least to me.

The title says "AMD" "NVidia" and "better". This was always going to turn into an ugly mess of nonsense. I've begun to just assume very little of worth ends up coming out of these "discussions"

It's sad that's what tech forums have by and large come to. What ever happened to having an educated point? What about respectful debate?

I must be old.

Yes, (not to "you are old", the other thing) it should be "why Radeon will perform better than GeForce" that would be less fishy and fanboy-ish. It's too obvious the thread starter is a fan of AMD. Whatever, it is what you make of it, I didn't read the entire thread, but it can possibly be a good discussion.

Yeah, kinda came into it hoping for good discussion, but was disappointed. You are possibly right that the OP wasn't helpful in how he phrased his post.

Make it better! Repair the thread! xD

btw I think AMD has a good shot on DX12, ACE is a + if a lot games are to use it, if not, well then AMD isn't at least any worse. The good thing for Radeon cards is though, their "power limiter" from DX11 is essentially removed in DX12, meaning free performance laying on the ground before, can now be used. GeForce cards on the other hand are running smooth right now, so I don't see any "plus" on their ground, they are already caped to the max.

Btw: title of the thread really should be "at the beginning", because in the long run, simply nobody can know it. I'd bet on a tie though.

DirectX is a programming interface (API) that allows developers to tap into a device's hardware for producing complex 3D graphics. DX12 is the latest version and promises to bring more efficient CPU utilization, reduced driver overheads, and various other benefits. Lead developer Max McMullen said one of DX12's goals was to bring "console-level efficiency" to PCs. Console hardware is focussed entirely on games, where PCs are often doing other tasks even while running games.

why does that feel like a direct quote from google?

ooh a spambot, lets give it time to mature before squashing it.

I think he already did, funny thing is Op mentions that he is a veteran as he has 2 accounts, I checked his old one from 2013 and there are only 4 or 5 posts (Veteran?) and they are all pretty much about AMD, so I would guess that his intentions with the thread title were pretty deliberate, with that in mind I don't feel guilty about closing this as it appears to be pretty much done now anyway.
