Does Doom even have CFX support?
I do recall his Twitter account going silent for a while. I wonder what his FPS is in that scene.
Some top notch tweeting by roy taylor.

No SLI or CF support.

@Roy_techhwood @AxlRose21434675 Vulcan build? Must be, as my 295X2 only using 1 GPU and getting 30fps on High at 1440p. Dismal.

@JADCampbell @AxlRose21434675 then you're doing something wrong @amdcare can help.
Didn't he work for Nvidia for many years too?? I didn't see a single complaint about him back then. LMAO.
Edit to post.
10 years it appears:

Interesting how the perception of somebody like him changes depending on the company he works for.
Ah,well!!
Shrugs.

5GB is an odd amount of VRAM to require, but presumably that's to ensure the game engine has enough space for all the textures, frame buffers, Z buffer, and whatever else it needs. If you're running on any GPU with less than 5GB VRAM, you're not going to be able to enable the Nightmare settingsperhaps some hacks will allow it, but if they're serious about crashes, you're probably best off leaving it alone unless you have the requisite video RAM.

Looks like it works better in 4K on Fury X after all, so...
And this is why CF/SLI can be such a huge waste of $$$. The industry as a whole needs to engineer a way for the basic driver or DX to just handle SLI/CF without the need for any specific drivers and/or game-specific code. The current method is a joke.
Poor Fury.
Axe to grind much? I would love for you to find posts singing the praise of the TWIMTBP program. LOL. This guy is pretty much the same where ever he goes, a total tool...
Poor Fury.
What happened to Fury X/980 in the 4k+Ultra+Nightmare chart? It disappeared?
Author makes no mention of it either.
Not really,but I can't remember many posts having a direct go at him during that period.
If so can you find me some posts on here,with people criticising him,especially from the ones criticising him now?? Maybe I missed them!!
In fact I cannot find any posts really criticising specific Nvidia PR people on here either.
Last time I checked either AMD or Nvidia PR and marketing all has to be taken with a grain of salt anyway.
Its not a Gameworks game. It is just optimized for nVidia, too. We saw this with Anno2205: A PC developer who cares about the PC plattform.
It might as well be since games based on UE4 and iD tech are synonymous with NV. NV used Doom to unveil Pascal, what else is there to say?
That's the simple reason why those games run und look fantastic while others games (Hitman, Ashes etc.) are just a joke in contrast.
Let me guess, just another game that runs better on NVIDIA HW, therefore there must be some sort of conspiracy going on. On the other hand if it was running better on AMD HW it would be a proof of their superior architecture, etc.. Where did I see this before?? Mmhhh
Defacto strategy around here. Game is great, getting a lot of positive reception, but tanks on AMD/NV so clearly inferior product. :/
Well, to be fair, it was a little different 10 years ago in terms of marketing. A personal Twitter-style approach didn't really exist, or at least wasn't nearly as far reaching. I can say the NV TWIMTBP has been a joke here on at AT (at best) and universally hated (at worst) for a LONG time. Just saying. So if he was a part of that, he definitely earned some of that dislike
Considering NV used Doom to unveil Pascal, I wouldn't be surprised if behind the scenes they were working with iD for weeks optimizing Maxwell and Pascal for this title. This explains why AMD did so well in the Beta but the final game now magically bombs on everything prior to Fury.

Even if this was the case I don't see how it could be possibly relevant to what I was saying, unless you are implying that those "1-2 settings" were placed in the game by some malicious agent.I would bet it's 1-2 settings, possibly Ultra shadows that destroy performance by 50-60%.
Too bad I didn't make such suggestion. Having a fervid imagination can be counterproductive at times.Yes, obviously because seeing 290X/780Ti vs. 960/970 Maxwell/380X or Fury X vs. 390/390X cannot possibly explain that something odd is happening with Ultra settings. The easier explanation of course is that as long as NV's latest architecture performs better than AMD, the game is a well optimized next gen title. :thumbsup: I bet if Pascal destroys everything in ARK Survival, it's going to become the defacto standard for a Next Gen well optimized title.
Based on this tweeter feed, it seems AMD never even got a chance to optimize for the Ultra settings or at the very least they are aware of the issues and are working on a fix.

And how about that Ultra + Nightmare quality setting? It may not look substantially different, but at least it doesn't tank performance too badly. The 980 Ti loses about two percent in performance is all, while the 390 takes a more substantial 13 percent hit to frame rates. So that's good news of a sort, but here's the bad news.
Probably engineered with consoles in mind? I believe ~5GB is about what can be dedicated on PS4/XBone for graphics, so it makes sense.
Amds opengl drivers on windows perform just fine. The linux side needs performance improvements for sure but the problem is opengl itself.Game being extremely well optimized to the point of use this well the FX9590 is not only the good news. Also AMD's cards tend to perform really bad on OpenGL from what i know, not.to mention their linux drivers being real bad as always. Is surprising that GCN1.2 performs to its full potential at the game.

Besides, i can't be the only 1 to find 5gb oddly specific?
