I might try and complete it at some point.
New benchmark on CPU overhead reducing drivers.

Is this a 2 or 3 card run ?
Soldato
Two mate. Negative scaling with three
Man of Honour
Mega negative scaling with four.
I also notice the options screen has changed compared to the one in the OP.

Shame really. By committing yourself to one brand doesn't do you any favours in the long term.
Mantle has not launched perfectly, and the game developers have made an equal hash of it to be fair.
Rather than judge a book by it's cover, I think I will wait and see over the year before being too critical.

Lets be honest all we have seen of mantle is it being patched in to a few games. Hopefully over time it will be used properly and show what it's capable of. Lets be honest just about every dx version has taken a year or 2 to show real benefits and even then that's debatable. Dx9 was the last dx that imo moved things on a good deal.

Mantle is in 2 games so far and when we look at the performance of single cards (can't use Crossfire, as Mantle doesn't work in crossfire yet), we see this.
Top 3 are DX

Yea and check the clocks used to get there lol. Also most mantle users would tell you they are getting smoother gameplay despite having less fps. Anyhow in the words of mantle users.
Once you go mantle you never go back.

And the clock speeds to get there are far beyond normal consumer reach.
Where the AMD cards clocks anyone can get.

None of the clocks are special. Mine was a low clocked run just for kicks. Smoother gameplay is cool and nice to hear that they are getting away from unsmooth (should be a word) gameplay
No one should have to play with gameplay that isn't smooth, so good on AMD for giving their customers smooth gameplay

Personally always thought dx was smooth but if it can get smoother i am all for it. Hopefully dx12 will provide mantle smoothness for all.
Caporegime
Agreed on that.

Said it before and say it again, even someone other day pointed out about DX on BF4+Nvidia feeling choppy "Who was it?"
Mantle you only after look at my gameplays I have recorded to see just how smooth the Frame rate change is. Going from 180fps down to 100fps you cant even feel the change. DX is a completely different story.
You can trust me when I say this once DX12 comes along and if its anything like Mantle you in for a treat. Nothing as of yet comes close and you can keep kidding yourself DX11 is smooth.

Is it average silicon on air or water because on water nothing is average compared to air. Is this still running the original ti bios? Anyhow it looks like on nvidia a 6 core Cpu makes a huge difference. Khemist would be well into the 100's if he had one. Just goes to show though when amd sponsor a game performance all around is good.

You are comparing AMD DX though and you had crossfire, which was stuttering and a mess in DX. They (AMD) have only just fixed this with frame pacing and you are telling other AMD users how smooth Mantle is, which is great but nVidia owners have had it smooth for so long (since 2008) in SLI and you seem to think we have had the same unsmooth gameplay but really we haven't.
