All last gen cards have had their cost cut in half, it is what happens every single time a new card comes out. Or are you going to say the 980 TI is a $600+ card still? In that case it is terrible price/performance.

Fury Air was always price / perf level with the 980 TI. Fury X wasn't, but it had a water cooler. The cheapest 980 TI with a watercooler was an extra $100 and the same price/perf as the Fury X.

His point was trying to compare a 1080 to the Fury X is a terrible comparison because they aren't in the same league price wise now. Or do you think the 980 TI should also keep up with the 1080?
So it is 3rd party review site and nvidia fault that AMD has a become a no competition ,where they cannot compete with big companies?

Why are you just trolling?

How is AMD not competing?

Fury X is performing the same as 980 Ti, which is what it was released next to.

The newer generation card should win out over the older generation one, if not, then there has been no progress. Especially so if the newer card costs more than the old one did.

trying to figure out how this post follows from the above.

1080 and fury x not being in the same price range should be the end of that. Can buy a fury x for under $400

How is AMD not competing? Can you seriously ask that, since they are already months behind nVidia in releasing a high end next gen gpu, and it will be at least several months before they do? Yes, they may be competing on price, but that is because any card they are selling above the 480 is old and outdated.

Its amazing how you guys turn all threads into AMD vs Nvidia. Is it really that hard for you to admit that both have value?

Even Steam Hardware surveys that you guys love show the 1080 (0.57%) and 1070 (0.87%) having less than 2% of DX12 users combined. Considering how many people here would never buy an AMD high end card regardless of its performance why would you expect them to try to constantly put out high end expensive parts?

They are competing in the important areas and even Fury is still competing for higher end even with it being so old.

But even though you guys tried and failed to show that it would run out of VRAM now its time for a new approach to bash AMD.

Can you stay on topic?

480 is competing with 1060, Fury with 980 Ti, 390 with 970.

This game runs Ultra 1080 on a 970/390 or better at >60fps

Looking at videos and screenshots, the game is not impressive on the graphical front. It doesn't look horrible, but it's certainly nothing special. Serious Sam 3 has a ton of options as well, but that doesn't mean it looked amazing. Just because you can adjust a bunch of sliders it does not mean the game is going to be a Crysis 3.

I wouldn't mind trying it, but I don't buy any games that force me to use the Windows store. If they smarten up and put it on Steam I'll pick it up and the new Forza as well. Windows store only = no buy.

You started it by asking how AMD is not competitive. Guess you dont like the answer. BTW, the "you guys" comment is very close to a member call-out, and I cant recall that I ever quoted the Steam survey or bashed Fury for not having enough vram. I also have an AMD video card.

When you post stats and figure then please make sure that you are on latest not based or double standard.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 DX12 1.42%
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 DX12 0.90%
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 DX12 0.88%

AMD RX 480
RX 480 0.22% some what.

And as usual no Anandtech benchmarks for anything. They haven't tested a new game in ages, no gpu reviews, no nothing. What was once the standard for reviews and benchmarks that you can trust and had background to them, now its the crappiest "tech" site on the web.

I was:

http://store.steampowered.com/hwsurvey/directx/

This is a DX12 only game, why would I include DX10/11 results?
Sorry to reply again my stats of AMD are wrong.


NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 DX12 1.42%
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 DX12 0.90%
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 DX12 0.88%

AMD RX 480
RX 480 0.18% (updated)
RX 470 0.05%

Now you can see it is above 2% of users and much more then Polaris users on DX12 (Only DX12 results)

Sorry to reply again

You've completely missed the point of my post.

You were trying to say that AMD isn't competing with Pascal high end. I was pointing out that it was under 2% of PC gamers who owned high end systems so there isn't much for them to compete in.

I left off 1060 / 480 stats because well, its obvious direct competition, but your post does completely highlight the rest of my other post, which is even with AMD competing, users don't buy their hardware over Nvidia.

Now we know those aren't valid sales figures in general but even if we assume that its close it just shows that equivalent AMD and Nvidia hardware, people will buy Nvidia.

Its amazing you've managed to turn a thread about a game into yet another AMD vs Nvidia "sales" though. Congrats on that.

It is only DX12. It only take 2 mins to research and read rather then posting false figures and stats.

Your numbers are DX12 compatible GPUs, not DX12 systems (those with Windows 10 installed).

They(AMD) may not directly compete in the high-end of $500+ cards, but that is not what Unreal123 flame post was talking about. Unreal123 flame post was about AMD not competing in general with big companies, this is completely not the same with not competing only in the High-End market (2-3% market share) that you talk about.

Members have now been warned for derailing this thread off topic. This is gears of war, not AMD vs Nvidia. Take that to a thread of your own.

I dont own the games but from pictures I find the old Gears of War Ultimate DX-12 PC version much better in the visual department.

Its the atmosphere created in Ultimate edition that i find it way better, Gears 4 looks to me like its fake and plastic vs the Ultimate edition.

Also, is it me or textures seams to be low Image Quality in Gears 4??

Are you joking? Ultimate ed looks like oil dirt while this one is more vibrant.
Also these images look like medium texture settings.

GamersNexus updated their results: http://www.gamersnexus.net/game-bench/2630-gears-4-pc-benchmark-updated-with-ultra-high-settings

They were using higher settings on AMD cards than Nvidia in the previous graphs, those have been fixed.





They didn't retest just re-graphed so still using the 16.9.2 not 16.10.1 ("game ready") drivers for AMD, but are for Nvidia (373.02)

Their minimums seem super low for AMD though, neither PCGH or GameGPU saw such low minimums. Wonder if they have some odd bottleneck as all cards have massive (50%ish) difference between minimum and average.
I really dont like GTX1070 performance in new titles.Its always slower than 980TI and GTX1080 leads around 30-35%.
