Ofcourse it is, it is THE most important area at the moment. AMD don't get that though and continue to make cards for 4k when the gpu power simply isn't there yet.

For enthusiasts?. I doubt it. For the majority of PC gamers?. Of course 1080p is.

I wonder what all this focus on 1080p is about by a lot of people.
All those l33t gamers who wants their max performance right on max graphics settings??
Yet,it appears a number of hardcore FPS gamers appear to turn down the graphics settings and increase draw distance. Why?? Much more consistent FPS,less folliage means its easier to spot people and the max draw distance means you can see the enemy easier.

I do wonder...if the Fury X performance is actually being held back by dx9/dx11 like chains?
Would be funny if when dx12 are out, and Fury X become so far ahead of the 980Ti/Titan X because of their Fuji architecture was may be purposely built for dx12, while Nvidia's Maxwell support and hyped up "superior dx12 support over AMD" was just a "tickbox feature".
Most probably wishful thinking though

It better be wishful thinking otherwise this forum would implode.
I'll do as I please, I didn't want to clutter up the forum. Also why attempt to answer my questions if you "ain't interested"?. Plus it was regarding a topic you are engaged in??. Very strange.
I was talking about the latest video reviews you posted regarding W3.
A lot of enthusiasts (what this card, Ti and Titan-X) are aimed at will be playing on higher than 1080p I'd imagine. Remember the word "enthusiast".
Don't you dare try to talk logic. It's like using your dessert spoon to eat soup in these parts

I think we can bet on AMD having great DX12 performance from the word go due to there experience with Mantle. Dx12 may not be Mantle but those that have seen it say it's very similar.

Yeah i suggested that earlier on, Nvidia do have better Driver overheads so they can and do pull more FPS when the gap between CPU and GPU performance increases.
Look at this....
The FPS difference in Sniper 3 DX11 vs Mantle is 0 on my 290 + AMD CPU combo, here its 10% on an Intel CPU.
Its AMD's DX11 Driver overhead thats holding it back at lower res.

That's what I've been speaking about in another thread. I asked "Don't you think the work AMD have had with Mantle will have them having a better understanding and implementation regarding DX12?".
Only time will tell but Nvidia continuously deliver so it will be interesting to see. Does anyone have any confirmation of DX12 titles?.
Who has seen it and who has said that?
Edit: People are delusional if they think Nvidia have been sat doing nothing with regards to DX12. It is an AMD comfort blanket to fall back on statements like this. Sure they may perform good in it but to think it will be the game saver....

But then surely we will see improvements on NVIDIA cards too under DX12. Perhaps it uses features from mantle but they can be used on all cards. Just my guessing tbh. But should be interesting to see how things develop.

I aint interested in messaging you on forum topics, on the forum fine. And clutter up the forum? please...
The video reviews that contain the witcher 3 and numerous other games not associated with Nvidia, what are you going on about, it's hardly a biased review is it.
You assume they game at higher than 1080p, that's not a fact.

I was talking about AMD performance and not Nvidia's. If Nvidia are not Bottlenecked like AMD are at low resolution then they do stand to gain less. You are right though Nvidia will not have stood still
It has been said a few times by different people who has seen papers on Dx12 from what i can remember. I am not in the mood to go trolling through all the Dx12 stuff that's came out since it was officially announced. Had a few too many last night lol.

Ah Is see. I think AMD may sort the lower resolution issue before DX12 to be honest.
AMD's DX12 overheads are actually better than Nvidia's, for the moment at least.
But IMO none of that matters, DX12 vs DX11 Drawcall performance is necking on to something like 20X higher in DX12.
Trust me that is a vast amount of performance, it will take a lot of years to figure out how to take advantage of that much DrawCall performance.
A 2/10 point advantage isn't going to make the blindest bit of difference to who ever has it if any of them will in the coming years, right now it just happens to be AMD.
Well, from the main devs of MSI Afterburner expect the voltage unlock in about 4 weeks - just for when most of the pre-orders land - incidentally when Windows 10 lands also which is expected to give the Fury gains in a number of games.
Part of me wonders if they would have been better waiting a month for the release, ironed out more driver issues & got over-clocking ready for day one. (It's what I would have done)

Witcher 3 isn't associated with Nvidia
. Erm ok...I never said it's a fact did I?. Here's what I said:
Yeah, clearly can see I said it's a fact. As you didn't understand it the first time, I'll explain. What I'm trying to say is the majority of enthusiasts will be playing games on these cards at higher resolutions than 1080p.
I wpuld use it at 1080p..... 3D and VR when helmets are out
As an ex 3D user I approve this message
. I still stand by my thinking that most people with the highest end cards will be 1440p+.
