So basically give this review a wide birth as Kaap has just demonstrated. Knowing Toms being Toms they might of even got the presets mixed up lol. Drivers are quite old too. In fact that version was the worst in a lot of things.
I remember them doing an "early look" at their Thief results, and that was months ago. Can't find it now, though.

Looks complete crap to me, i've posted a few times what sort of fps i get normally,
100fps avg mark using DX11, using mantle it's around 120fps.
That's with my 4770K @4.6.
Mantle makes a big difference even on high end systems.

What map/s do you get 120 Avg out of curiosity bud? They are some good frames for a single card.

Here you go Greg,
This was testing the Naval Strike maps.
had a issue with one server and spikes but the rest were fine.
It's the same story with most of the other maps, hardest for me seem to be Zav and Para but fps is still over 100 avg on those too, i guess it helps that i'm running a pretty good overclock on my card too mind.
FOV 90
Nansha 64 player, Ultra settings, 1080P (4770K @4.6, 290X @1200/1400)
AVG 125.692
MAX 226.757
MIN 71.685
Mortar 64 player, Ultra settings, 1080P (4770K @4.6, 290X @1200/1400)
AVG 127.706
MAX 269.542
MIN 71.327
Wave 64 player, Ultra settings, 1080P (4770K @4.6, 290X @1200/1400)
AVG 131.037
MAX 220.099
MIN 49.826 (Had a huge spike during the map)
Lost 64 player, Ultra settings, 1080P (4770K @4.6, 290X @1200/1400)
AVG 118.955
MAX 249.377
MIN 43.328 (Again same server different map, huge spike)

All snipers are girls
Didn't feel girly out in Iraq
I know what you mean though and to be honest, i sort of agree, my most used weapon is the Type 88 Lmg in the game though, started using the assault and engineer kits a lot more now.
Btw- are we all gaming tonight?

The reason behind my awesome average fps is simple, a powerful, fine tuned rig and..

Nice frames. I will have a look at my single card frames tomorrow and see how that fairs. I am sure I will be no where near it though, as I think I only get 150 average with SLI Titans at stock.

Fine tuned to the point those numbers look higher than my old three way Ti results

In all seriousness though it's the truth, i've no reason or inclination to lie about them.Those are the Average fps that i get using my system, @1080p ultra settings.

Let's see how your Titan SLI and Titan Black Tri SLI results compare to a couple of cheap 290P blowers boys.
2700k@5Ghz
290P Crossfire 1000/1250
14.7
Mantle
1080P Ultra 75 FOV
Nansha Strike
Average FPS:185
Aside from one dirty spike at the start, i do belive in terms of frame variance/consistency this is as close to perfect as you can get without using vsync or an fps limit. #TheMantleEffect

LtMatt gains another Mantle convert.
Even though this chap could not get it to work @4K whatever he tried.
