290P crossfire @1250/1625
14.6 Beta
DirectX

This is an entry.

1080P

1440P

My DX scores are crap. Low gpu usage is the problem at 1080P.

Done, Mantle more than doubled your Min FPS, which is exactly what i found.

It would be helpful for the links in the leader board if you could add your DX result to your Mantle results post linked :)

Mantle is working well in Thief.

This was the best dual gpu Nvidia score i could find from the old Thief bench thread.

In fairness they're completely different APIs. DX score vs. DX score is what should be compared.
My opinion is that if multiple cards and different resolutions get a separate leaderboard, Mantle and DX should get a separate leaderboard too.

Of course Mantle is going to get compared to DirectX. It would get compared to OpenGL as well, if there were actually any decent OpenGL games.

Silly GM. :D

Why do you separate out different resolutions and 2, 3 & 4 gpu setups?
So you can compare like for like.

It doesn't stop someone looking at what 280X Crossfire scores and what a 780Ti scores if they want to, so wouldn't stop people comparing a 290X with Mantle and a 780Ti with DX if they wanted to.

Surely the reason everyone runs at the same settings is so that things can be compared evenly?

DrirectX and Mantle are clearly Marked, its more relevent to compare them side by side as they are diffrent API's running on the same rig.

IMO if you separate them its not as apparent that the performance difference is down to the API.

I'm inclined to agree. You have to compare DX and Mantle, there is no alternative.

There is, you could not compare them.
I don't really see how this is different than the multi-card setups, that are split out. This could be done to show how well multi-card systems scale in the game.
Or different resolutions. You can run 1440p and 1080p on the same same monitor just as easily as Mantle and DX on the same GPU. It also makes it easy to see how performance changes as resolution increases.

Multicard is not the same rig as single.

Can be, just disable one card. LtMatt has done it in a number of threads.
