AMD’s Robert Hallock: “The vast majority of DX12 titles in 2015/2016 are partnering with AMD”

King of Wushu is another DX12 title coming that I just remembered, so that makes 2 a piece :D

Edit:

And wasn't Nvidia showcasing a FF game with DX12?

AMD have their faults, Nvidia have their faults but I will buy what suits me best.

Now then, anyone heard of any other DX12 games?

Spot on sir, and well put. :)

Personally hoping for a Crysis-type game for DX12. Not so much gameplay wise, but more from the point of view of a real showcase of what the tech can do, even if it means only being able to play it on Medium with current GPUs. I used to really enjoy upgrading GPU and being able to put Crysis up a notch and see how beautiful it was each time, rather than just seeing an FPS increase in a game with each GPU upgrade.

Yer, the original Crysis was a real "wow!!!" but since then nothing much has happened. It would really be good to have something like that again and a proper showcase. I don't care if it does run at 15 fps on my TX, just so long as it knocks the crap outta everything we already have visually.

Are you on about the Agni's Philosophy: Witch - Chapter 0 Cry tech demo? Wasn't a game, literally just a tech demo to showcase DX12 and how pretty SquEnix can make things :P
If you're going with potential GameWorks going in a SquEnix game, I can't see it myself - they know how to make frickin' super pretty without premade effects. But yeah, it was running on 4 Titans iirc.

Yer the witch crying. My memory is poor, so thanks for clarifying that it was just a demo :( Shame, as it looked damned good as well.

It's been pretty obvious for a long time now, I mentioned this in a Bulldozer/Pildedriver (forgot which) thread several years ago now now. Back then it was often users with less than 100 posts suddenly popping up posting about how great their new AMD system was in any thread that was negative towards AMD.

You only have to look through maonayze short post history to see that he posts exclusively in Freesync/AMD threads (with the odd foray into NVidia ones) and it's either to defend AMD or put in a marketing pitch for AMD, even in the monitor forum his posts constantly pimp the Fury cards.

I don't doubt that this will be part of AMDMatt and AMDJoe job description.



Feel free to post evidence of 'shadergate' as you call it affecting NVidia performance because so far there is none, including the game which started it all off. It's not like AMD's tessellation where we have tangible evidence of performance falling off a cliff, both synthetically and in games.

Firstly, I am a real boy and not an AMD paid assassin. I have purchased kit from this very boutique for many years. However, I have only started to post in the forums when I became interested in and started to do some research into a new monitor a little while ago.

That's when I became interested in the Variable refresh rate stuff on these forums and started to gain some interesting info on which to base my upcoming purchases.

I'll tell you why I dont post much in Nvidia/Gsync threads...it's because I own an AMD card (I have had cards from both sides over the years). Unlike some on here I don't go into an Nvidia thread and call people over or trash an opponents product just for the sake of it. I do read the threads though, but dont comment much as I am only interested in the AMD stuff at the moment.

I do get annoyed with people who willingly go into AMD titled threads just to trash AMD and Radeon cards. I also get annoyed if it's the other way around. Some people do it just to **** people off and that's just sad.

I think you are definitely being paranoid about me "pimping" Fury Cards in the Freesync threads. Even if I was.....wouldn't that be the correct place to pimp them? Why would anyone do that in the Nvidia threads?

As for Ramgate and Shadergate.....It's so easy to get caught up in all this crazy banter and I apologise for yanking your chain. But if you can't take it...don't be so ready to give it out.

Honestly, I much prefer all of these threads to have sensible disscussions about tech stuff and products in them, but people get so defensive about their product purchases (Human nature BTW, if you spend lots of money on something you will go over and above to justify yourself) and some do go on the attack and berate others.

Why you all of a sudden pull me out of the quagmire and accuse me of being on the AMD payroll is unknown to me (I wish I was dude, I wish I was). I guess I pushed your buttons a little too hard in some places.

I have just bought a BenQ XL2730Z and I have also just ordered a Sapphire Fury TRi-X and will defend my purchases to the full (Hey, we all have our reasons and we all try to make informed choices). However, I would prefer a reasoned debate rather than a screamathon.

You really think the overclockers forum is the best place for AMD to be putting their efforts in to viral marketing?!

AFAIK all the viral marketing from AMD is the Nano/banana video that went live last week.

Mmmmm...Banano...

Also, I completely lost it at the IP checking/shadow accounts :P It's only Me and AMDMatt on here as far as I know from AMD.

Actually Joe I'm new in the test department. Didn't you get the email from the boss asking you to send me an engineering sample Nano last week? :D :p

I missed this while answering the paranoid and delusional.

+1 for your sentiments with which I totally agree.

:)
 
I personally go AMD as those guys have been good to me and look forward to DX12 games coming which will run great on both Red & Green

I have owned from both camps but I find the more that Nvidia have market share that people always come over from the Green side too **** the red

Its all good
