**Official THIEF-Incorporating AMD™ Mantle™/True Audio™/Bench mark Thread**

THIEF is AMD's™ first Gaming Evolved™ title bringing is AMD's™ TrueAudio™, hopefully with a better tweaked Mantle™ giving us improved Mantle™ implementation, along with AMD's™ baptism of immersive 3D positional audio that us gamers truly deserve.

Use these settings:

Post a full size 1080p screen image of your result(with spoiler tags)-resized won't count.

Mantle entries, there is no way yet to take a screenshot direct from the game when running Mantle, if you can, alt+tab and use print screen to grab a shot(it works for some), if you can't, take a pic.

When posting, please submit your scores stating GPU Model/Clock Speed/CPU/Clock Speed/DX11 or Mantle like so -

THIEF is AMD's™ first Gaming Evolved™ title bringing AMD's™ and TrueAudio™.

Introducing a new level of immersion. GPUs aren’t just for graphics any more.

With more acoustic bandwidth and capabilities for developers to play with, plus a healthy slug of extra audio performance, you get a richer in-game soundscape. You’ll hear your opponents coming with breathtaking audio realism.

It’s your game taken to an entirely new dimension. Radeon™ is faster. Radeon is immersive. Radeon is gaming.

TrueAudio tech takes the gaming audio processing task away from our CPU, uses graphics card resource to provide more advanced audio effects (such as improved virtual surround sound), and then passes it to our output device.

Can NOT Wait

The future of gaming Audio. Before I have even played this game I have watched countless video's with this TrueAudio.

Its one of the reason for my new upgrade.

I think it was 7000's + up?

triss · 16 Feb 2014 at 04:13

i think TA was on r290/x's and possibly the 260? dont think it works for older cards but i may be mistaken

GefGz · 16 Feb 2014 at 04:20

Ahhh, yeah I remember it was something like that, mantle is the 7000's and up

Silent_Scone · 16 Feb 2014 at 07:27

There's a video on IGN of the first mission

. Looking forward to playing this.

I don't think Mantle is a trademarked word Tommy

Rasch · 16 Feb 2014 at 10:11

I hope there will be a better mantle driver too when they realease Thief.

psychas · 16 Feb 2014 at 10:25

Do we know if this game has an inbuilt benchmark or is it going to be another BF4 deal where everyone has to play the level in an identical way?

I'm actively chasing down an answer to this!

Good work on the thread Tommy.

GoogalyMoogaly · 16 Feb 2014 at 12:31

I am wondering what the point is of having a Mantle Benchmark thread (http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18577693) and then a separate thread for every Mantle title? Wouldn't it be best to keep all relevant benchmark stuff together rather than splitting it over multiple threads?
