Whoops, my physics background coming through there. I do hope everyone still managed to get the overall meaning behind the post.

Drivers not been confirmed for 9th at all so not sure we're Greg getting his information. They is a good chance though as they do release drivers on a Tuesday.

Well apparently people who've never tried freesync know it's going to be better. We must believe them because how can they be wrong.

The irony of you could easily replace the word freesync with dx12, and people would say how great it would be and how pointless Mantle would be as it only works for AMD users not Nvidia users...

Oh sweet double-standard

I haven't seen anyone adamant on the fact DX12 will be better, only that it will be available to all, which is a genuine reason.

Yer, pretty much this. I have not seen a single person claiming DX12 will be better, so I think Marine is just mixing stuff up there.

I honestly don't know how you lot can give this much of a **** tbh...

I know, some of the highest posters are running Gsync, feeling a bit of buyers remorse in the air, maybe the FreesyncGash takes the pain away.

I think I'm almost to afraid to ask what the FreesyncGash is and is it family forum friendly.

I read the driver release date from Humbug and I am fairly certain that Freesync was being bandied about in the Omega drivers. I will check when I get home.

Nail --> Head.

I'm almost certain, everyone who has been using G-Sync for many many months are regretting buying into something AMD will eventually get a slice of in a few months time :rolleyes:

If that is aimed at me, no remorse at all and would love my fellow AMD gamers to enjoy games in a tear free, stutter free and reduced lag manner the same as me and the other G-Sync users have done for months. The same stands if it wasn't at me

It's clearly aimed at the grown ups with grown up kids acting like pubescent youngsters, playing for the crowds.

@bru,

Scottish dialect for disdain, scorn, grief, common Scottish dialect.

Pretty certain he knows

Gash means something different down here.

I think that dx12 will most probably not work 'fully' on older gen cards, so dx12 and the amd api are pOOp to me as it means i will have to spend on a new gfx card.

That is after all what all companies want us to do, buy more cards and its not for the benefit of us that dx12 and the amd api are being released.

Nvidia users buy an amd card to use mantle, all users buy a new card to support dx12, or upgrade exsisting dx12 cards to gain a jump in performance.

Pretty irrelevant with Scottish Gaelic being a recognised UK language-'gasganach'- which was abbreviated to 'gash'.

Using 'language' as an excuse to troll. This sub-forum is tragic.

Silent_Scone · 8 Dec 2014 at 20:22

remorse for having a product in light of one that's yet to air lol.

You can either ignore such a stupid comment or get banished for replying to it with the truth.

Pot kettle black of epic proportions.

Deary me, coming from the the forums resident grammar expert who selectively targets individuals that don't conform to your cliché of mates, the trolling going on in this thread is tragic, god forbid you dare help put a stop to it.

And yet when Martini (or is it Rusty) corrects someone spelling he gets jumped on for it!
Double standards?
