Imagine my surprise, true surprise that you, Lampchop and Andy are in here saying how either, you never said it wouldn't be open, it's still not true or, the classic admitting you're wrong post "you posted it in the wrong place"

I don't believe anything nvidia spout either till I see it.

I also never said it wouldn't be open.

The Gods has spoken Mantle is the Godsend api tool for gamers worldwide.
It allows a better gaming experience than nvidia can give you.
Its so good your sleep improves, your reflexes improves in fps games.
Mantle the nectar of the Gods sent with freesync.

Posts like this are far worse.
 
Why was it built from the ground up by Dice/EA ?

Again have you followed anything about Mantle? Dice wanted more from there engine and noticed there bottleneck was DX they wanted more from the hardware so they started building an API that would allow them to push the graphics hardware more than they could with whats available at the time.

Short answer
 
At least we get MSI Afterburner OSD working, yay.

Pretty sure Shanks was telling us Mantle was born in 2013 the other day!

The word "open" is being used very loosely.

Am more interested in what recording performance will be like from Mantle... Raptr is already very low hit + Mantle will be very interesting.

Am sure I told you I had quick Google?

I have always said from day one, when all this talk about Mantle is DX12 I have always believed Mantle was the start of it all... What I have never knew and I doubt anyone here is that its been in development 4 years.

I'm simply asking questions looking for you to answer.

So DX12 was born from Mantle and you have confirmed that "Dice wanted more from there engine and noticed there bottleneck was DX they wanted more from the hardware so they started building an API" so Mantle was born from DX. There you have it. It's amazing what you can get from someone by asking questions.

Frankly, I feel if/when you get anything right, it's more dumb luck than it is actual logic.

Same could be said about any API, still doesn't mean the Mantle API wasn't built from the ground up does it. Does Mantle use preset from any other API on the market? Dont think it does... Does DirectX 12 use any presets from another API I sure it does.

Bless. I think your probably a young lad. You keep thinking whatever you like to keep making yourself feel good. Who am I to try and take that away from you.
 
Was he the one peddling lies about Gsync latency and Gameworks stuff?

Wasn't that in the Q&A thread from AMDRoy? the Gsync latency not Gameworks... I have no idea about this Gameworks crap and never got into the debate.

Dumb luck's a term.
I'm not calling you "dumb", you're still a magnitude above the general masses.

Well guess I read it wrong then, My bad :D

Honestly I'm not sure. I just get confused with the constant stream of AMD PR pieces that get held up as the 'one true way' on here. It's almost as though the place is riddled with AMD PR minions (at least some are now officially outed which was a surprise to nobody).

Shots fired :eek:
