That's where your wrong because this time round the console architecture is much, much more similar to pc architecture. Also combined with it uses GCN it means porting games over to pc is a much easier task than what it was before.

You make that sound like a good thing. Were getting hit with 30fps games.
 
Thanks matt.

That's not how it works, SEv3/Mordor/AI/W-TNO all got some kind of extra love for the PC, DR3/TEW locked@30fps on a straight port=dev dependant NOT hardware.

Comparable to the PS4 with downgraded res to match the common denominator that is the slower X1.
 
Ok, I'll give you that to an extent, but with the porting of games to and from platforms very easy, we'll see how many more lazy dev's opt in for this 'tactic'

Considering how little some devs think of PC gamers, I'd expect the laziness to happen quite often. I'm thinking ubisoft will be the leaders in pc port laziness.
 
To be fair, the majority are guilty of that-unless AMD/Nvidia wave a carrot at them.

I don't think people realise the work involved regarding running on a gazilion different configurations though.
 
Just stop buying Ubisoft, they seem to come out with these bat **** blanket statements about the pc industry and its customers that couldn't be further from the truth.

In ubisofts dream world we're all dirty pirates who should be gaming at a cinematic 30fps because.... they said so.

It baffles me why EA take so much stick when ubi exist.

I think EA take stick for 2 basic reasons:
Recently, BF4.
Before that, yearly game updates that update very little except marketing blurb and they charge full price for each year on year.

Oh and Origin.
 
Matt how loud was that setup with everything churning along? 1 stock 290 gave me a headache, 4 would have me throwing the case out the window.


No louder than one reference 290X mate. Kaap can confirm. :)

They never go higher than 57% so not very loud at all. Actually my Noctua Industrial fans are louder than my gpus typically. Not that i can hear any of my fans with my G930 on my head mind.
