We all want a healthy, competitive market but only the odd few choose AMD for some reason

CD PROJEKT RED:
Many of you have asked us if AMD Radeon GPUs would be able to run NVIDIA’s HairWorks technology – the answer is yes! However, unsatisfactory performance may be experienced as the code of this feature cannot be optimized for AMD products. Radeon users are encouraged to disable NVIDIA HairWorks if the performance is below expectations.
Hope this information helps.
Main reason why I dumped AMD-Games Works on AMD is a joke
Is that because AMD is bad
as per title?(given the quote from Momot
)
It's because AMD couldn't get working profiles out for mgpu usually GW's titles.
There was the jibe 'Just turn it off' from the usuals, but since they run Nvidia, they aren't affected which makes it ok, because AMDmatt tells you to do it.
It's as if it's an AMD plot to make Nvidia look evil.
Those with half a brain however will realise-that most PC gamers(with no vendor preference) that run AMD gpu's, who just want to game will be ditching AMD and going Nvidia because GW's is in most AAA tiltles.
Yes, and as already pointed out NVIDIA knew about adaptive sync for desktop long before it came out, being part of the group that came up with it. Yet they chose to keep support out of their recent desktop cards. Possibly this was a result of being too far down the design path on them already so changing would be too expensive. Hence it'll be interesting to see if they do the same with Pascal and rely on their lead in dGPU to keep GSYNC alive or if they choose to support the open standard they were part of creating.This has been stated multiple times before, the reason Nvidia need the gsync controller is because the display controllers in the current crop of Nvidia cards do not support adaptive-refresh. Although they can still send some custom commands to allow gsync to work with certain hardware. it was never designed to work with the original VESA eDP standard for adaptive-refresh.
But AMD has supported VESA eDP on the majority of its chips sine the 5000 series, just not in the way required for the current iteration of freesync to work. This is why some older card support Freesync but only under certain conditions and why it was demonstrated earlier on using laptop hardware.

The little powerhouse that is the 970 is getting GW's switched off@1080p on GFE now:

@ICDP,
W3 GW's works on my 970, before GW's, mgpu worked fine on my 6970/7970/7950/290X setups with Nvidia sponsered non GW's titles.
Paranoid nonsense. I can't believe people seriously imply that Nvidia goes in and forces developers to tessellate random geometry to make AMD look bad, or cripples their own performance in order to make AMD look marginally worse. Developers are responsible for optimization, not Nvidia, and developers have full control of which Gameworks features they use or don't. It's optional middleware that they can choose not to use entirely. There is no boogey man.
The main reason AMD releases everything opensource isn't because they're dogooders that want the best for gamers, it's because they're cloning features that Nvidia made first and AMD is playing catch up. The only way they can compete is by giving some incentive for developers, and opensourcing it is that incentive.

Except Nvidia didn't make any of it first. Some of it is inherited IP and most of it is copied from existing open source.
In fairness didn't AMD inherit it's entire GPU division when it bought out ATI?
