    Nintendo Switch is powered by NVIDIA

    This is the problem for nintendo. The ONLY reason the wii did so well is because it was a gimmick that looked interesting, many parents just bought one for the kids, played it for a bit, then let it collect dust. The games that REALLY hooked people and people wanted to play were on the ps3...

    DOOM updated with Vulkan support

    Slight tangent but, your name and magic carpet avatar sort of ties in with DOOM, magic carpet was the game that lost out to the standard corridor/ground shooter. It was apparently slower to run on 4x86 intel hardware, but when I got my very first computer in 1996, It had a cyrix 5x86 and ran...

    guru3dDoom Vulkan Benchmarks

    I got more salt from this post than a salt mine. Cheer up, think of this more as having the shackles taken off of amd rather than not boosting nvidia. It just so happens that when gcn cards are allowed to operate as they were designed, they perform well.

    guru3dDoom Vulkan Benchmarks

    I don't know if this is true, but I think what might have happened is that the automatic workloads the additional scheduling hardware operates on (with gcn) is a NIGHTMARE to optimize for manually, and since nvidia chose not to add the same sorts of hardware schedulers to cut their power use...

    DOOM updated with Vulkan support

    I feel so sorry for people where 20-30 watts makes or breaks their choices. stone walls do not a prison make, nor iron bars a cage -doc oc ... unless you limit yourself to prebuilt dell components and refuse to open the side of the case or something (that's what I do without even...

    DOOM updated with Vulkan support

    Anyone have any idea why there are varied reports of maxwell performance with the 980 ti? http://www.dsogaming.com/news/doom-benefits-greatly-vulkan-vulkan-versus-opengl-performance-comparison/ They seemed to have gotten a nice boost with the 980 ti, but guru 3d saw no boost with the 1070...

    DOOM updated with Vulkan support

    To be fair, that was not consistent, just one area. The guy who posted in the reddit thread said in the foundry area it was more like a 40% gain. https://www.reddit.com/r/Amd/comments/4sd75l/doom_123_vulcan_performance_increase_on_r9_280x/ Still, being able to up to double and beyond...

    DOOM updated with Vulkan support

    Just going to leave this here. http://imgur.com/a/hMBMH 280x updated with vulkan comparison... over double. When people say amd cards have longer legs and performance over time, this is what people can point to.

    DOOM updated with Vulkan support

    in vulkan for doom at 1080p: rx 480 = 77% of an nvidia 1070, for around half the price. That might widen again once nvidia goes into panic mode and tasks their scores/hundreds of engineers to micro optimize the things gcn is doing automatically with their hardware schedulers, but for now it...

    Someone explain the AMD Nvidia DX12 difference?

    It'll probably matter once nvidia revamps gameworks for dx12 and starts including effects that make heavy use of conservative rasterization and raster ordered views. The moment they get those effects libraries up and running for some new/current updated gameworks effects, they will almost...

    How memory (frequency) starved is Polaris?

    Speaking of which... can polaris even use gddr5x? And if so, could a board partner just choose to it instead of gddr5? What is the cost difference of 8GB of gddr5 vs gddr5x? would it just not be worth the cost difference?

    Help me narrow down 32"+ 4K choices

    Now that we have the graphics cards, I give it a year or less before the korean off brand panel makers start shipping them with dp 1.4 and 120Hz. If the standard players release anything like that at all it will cost well over 1k, the korean off branders should still be sub 1k. That entire...

    Is it possible/feasible to create a micro backlighting array that was per pixel?

    But is that more expensive/feasible than using tiny white leds as the backlight instead of white oleds as the backlight shot through color filters? And samsung on mobile using different color oleds that release their own light. LG oled sort of acts more like an lcd in terms of how a white...

    Is it possible/feasible to create a micro backlighting array that was per pixel?

    We know the limitations of lcd displays vs oled is that lcd screens are not emissive, they need a backlight to light up the pixels of the lcd screen. Some tvs have local dimming where they have zones of of the led backlight that can turn on and off. Well... what about going all the way to each...

    The technical merits: Polaris vs. Pascal

    This is what I've heard before too. Discussed here with David Kanter at 11:18 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v_eRwxqhAGo#t=11m18s Maxwell seems to have offloaded the scheduling of tasks largely to the driver, or much less via the gpu hardware. GCN had dedicated hardware scheduler...

    Who bought/is buying a Radeon RX 480?

    Waiting on an AIB variant. I am borderline in terms of this being an upgrade, I have a reference 290 back from 2013, so a stock rx 480 should still be a slight boost compared to that, but I'd rather get a bit more with a higher clocking variant. I chose not to wait when I got the reference...

    The technical merits: Polaris vs. Pascal

    This is really important, and it looks like it might be undercut sooner than expected with the nvidia 1060 launch being moved up. AMD needs more marketshare, and to do that they need to offer more performance for less money than the competition. Even with the increased power usage compared to...

    Why does hitman perform so much better in dx12 on amd cards?

    Are they just using a lot more concurrent compute + graphics workloads? Are they NOT using some other rendering feature that nvidia cards handle better? What is it that makes it so much stronger than other titles like rise of tomb raider? Is it about the game engine used and how...

    AMD Polaris Thread: Radeon RX 480, RX 470 & RX 460 launching June 29th

    Such terrible technology retailers. I can sort of get best buy being late since they are more mainstream, but Frys is supposed to be in the microcenter tier of electronic stores, and it is so far beneath them.

    Polaris 10 benchmarks...

    There is value when you consider that some games, now or in the future might have fewer constraints if the memory is 8GB vs 4GB. Maybe they are bad ports (still a benefit by giving more breathing room for bad ports when it comes to memory usage), maybe it makes the devs job easier to balance...

    The solution to midrange vs high end markets... Why can't amd make a scalable gpu?

    This applies to nvidia as well but I don't care about them as much. People always talk about yields being lower on a new process, hence the cost of the larger dies being much greater with a new generation. This leads companies like amd and nvidia choosing smaller die sizes initially while...

    The 51%/98% GPU usage dilemma

    My guess is that a 1070 is still substantially faster than a 480, remember pascal, while not having true support for concurrent graphics + compute workloads, does seem to have much better preemption, and that allows them to not be as handicapped compared to maxwell in some of these games. Still...

    AMD Computex Live Stream

    You can and everyone will. Fair or not, similar die size or not, similar cost or not, the 480 series and the 1070/1080 are the new gpus on the block for the two main gpu vendors. The upper end of the 480 series (up to 300 dollars according to Lisa [we'll see if that's accurate]) will be...

    AMD Computex Live Stream

    But the 390x is completely supplanted by the 1070 in terms of cost, and performs more like a 980ti. AMD needs to make comparisons of what they will be up against, the new standards not the old standards.

    AMD Computex Live Stream

    It makes me think that even using a single 480 would either not have gotten close to 98% utilization due to there potentially being harder than pascal to fill up to the same degree, or the 480 not scaling linearly in terms of performance with more utilization. Because if it did, and you could...

    (GURU3D RUMOR) AMD Polaris 10 GPU To Offer Near 980 Ti Performance For 299 USD?

    I'll forgive your knock on AMD since your avatar alludes to the greatest superior DOOM alternative game style that never caught on. Magic Carpet, the only true god game ever made, that made all doom games look like pacman in comparison.

    When the new HDR displays are coming out?

    Don't they have some better VA panels that can hit 4000/5000:1 static contrast? If so perhaps those will be the focus for pc hdr. Until oled comes down, I think I'll target a va hdr monitor/tv instead. Ideally, some korean off brand panel maker will get hold of a 4k 120Hz va panel with...

    4k @ 120Hz and HDR going forward

    If we can still get 10 bit HDR @ 4k up to 96Hz, I think that would be perfectly fine for most gamers. It would be fine for me as I'm not a twitch shooter, and having variable refresh even higher than 60Hz on down ought to make things looks smoother and better allow that 2.5x freesync multiplier...

    [Techspot] 4K Monitors: Can you actually see the difference?

    I still don't get why 4k hdr is locked to 60Hz, I get there is not enough bandwidth on displayport 1.3 to go all the way to 120Hz with HDR, but what about 80Hz? 90Hz? What is the actual Hz limit with HDR on, it has to be more than just 60Hz.

    4k @ 120Hz and HDR going forward

    Now that I think about it... the first mega oled display with hdr I am likely to be able to afford will be in 2017 with a presumed s8 edge plus or note 7. By that time, the oled displays from samsung will probably be bumped up to 4k and feature hdr support.
