Matt you cannot be telling me again that a cheaper card (by £100) is beating the 780 Ti in another game?

Shut up! :D

*runs away with spoon

:p

780TI was released after the 290X so a fair comparison is more like a titan or a 780. ;)

:cool:
I'll run couple test on DirectX on 28th can't be bothered to unlock early.

I unlocked earlier but im waiting for the new drivers.

Well it is no good posting slides of what Mantle can do. Come on guys, post your Mantle benches. Ohhhh, that's right... Mantle isn't working yet. Still, those slides do look nice and if you close your eyes really tight and imagine you are playing Thief with Mantle, it is like you really are :D

Next!

By the way, This game is so poor... I have been playing all morning and very very scripted. Something about it though that keeps me playing. As it was from Eidos, I was hoping for a Tomb Raider style game but sadly, this isn't 10% of Tomb Raider in gameplay and depth.

The sour grapes voice there of a self proclaimed Nvidia fanboy :D

My sweet fx preset is here if anyone wants to use it, plenty of comparison shots. Would recommend using the full package rather than the settings files to make sure it works.

Scroll lock to turn it on/off

Click through to full resolution pictures as that is representative of what the difference is, for some reason the smaller comparison shots look darker than the full res ones!

Going to give the 14.2 betas a whirl now!

I realise the point is that AMD is faster, but in just about every slide it's 3-4fps. Although they do like to use the Corsair style of graphs where they miss off like 90% to make the gap look bigger.

I can't wait until they use Mantle on a decent game that I consider it worth my time playing...
