Bruh, that's not the fury X right behind the 980 ti; that's an r9 fury.
So a fury X would be a few percent faster than a 980 ti in Hitman.

*Tweet from devs about their own game*
 
'Theyre wrong!'
 
This is getting childish at this point. Just admit that you were wrong and move on, it's not the end of the world.

You provided no source of an AotS developer saying anything. Then when a developer does say something, which was completely opposite to what you claimed, you dismiss it. The source you provided (with no sign of an Ashes dev saying anything) was outdated. You told me to look at the newest posts (follow down the post) and once again the latest post was from early-to-mid May - far before the 480 unveiling. So once again, please tell me, did this imaginary AotS developer in your "source", travel back in time and post it in there? Do you think I am stupid? 
 
Far out man, you can be so stubborn at times. The very fact that you believe it's "extremely rare" that you are wrong further reinforces that. Just admit it, you were wrong. It's OKAY to be wrong. If one can never be comfortable with that, they will always limit their own ability and success in life. 

You provided a source that contradicted what you said, and the only thing you could muster in your defense was to say that they were still wrong anyways. Not very convincing.

Considering that you're university student, I find it extremely concerning that you lack the basic skills needed to actually be a student.
 
1) Failure to provide evidence despite claiming to have evidence
2) Inability to admit errors
3) Unwilling to learn from aforementioned errors 
4) Arrogance (and unwarranted arrogance at that) 
 
There are probably more problems I've overlooked but I do have to question how you've supposedly spent years at university without learning basic skills and that none have showed you any better. They must be focusing all their attention on teaching the curriculum, which I assume you excel at, and ignore the rest. Horrifying. Considering the (probably) vast amounts of money they receive to provide education, they should at least do a decent job at developing and challenging minds instead of just filling it with information and hoping they know what to do with it.
 
Oh well. It's probably futile at this point. 

Coding and efficiency, not actual gaming.

Didnt NVIDIA kill 1000000 PC´s with an Driver this Year ? Something about tha is in the back of my Head If im wrong make sure to correct me.

Not the ones used at computex, but here's some benchmarks

RX 480 Crossfire

Oh, you special little snowflake. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Stupid statement that can be applied to anything. In 10 years massive things changes, let alone 5 years.
I am not defending Microsoft, I am saying what it is. Not my problem if I have to correct "Nintendo Microsoft is D0000000000000000000000000000000000000000m" type of comments, been said since 1998-1999 (for both Nintendo and Microsoft, funny enough).
Look at their financial reports, look at their stock, look at innovation output, everything says that Microsoft is far from doing bad.
 
That is how you die. Not moving.
 
You fail to understand UWP. They are great books on it, if you are dev incline.
 
 

Seems like HardOCP is still butthurt after AMD denied them R9 Nano review samples and didn't invite them to the Macau event.
 
Take what is said in this article with this amount of salt:

Actually, "mainstream" is whatever you try to describe it according to your agenda.
This is what you try to call mainstream on a product that hasn't been released yet.
Yeah, nice job trying to put an unreleased chip that has 2.5X better performance per watt, built on a 14nm process and a new architecture... on a roadmap slide that's made for last generation GPUs.
Admit it, you're doing this after all:

With your logic, the GTX 950 should perform just as bad, if not worse, than the GTX 750 Ti, but it doesn't. But both cards are mainstream GPUs, aren't they?

What I object to is you dismissing that mindshare actually exists based on your laughable notion that people "upgrade in waves".
 
Simple question - Do you think that people buy up all the cards on day 1, or do you think that these cards are sold over many months and years?
 
2nd simple question - Why do you think people continue to buy the 970 over the 390 by a huge factor?  Because it's getting destroyed in every DX12 benchmark and even most DX11 ones today?
 
Just use logic and you'll understand how utterly ridiculous your argument is that AMD "just got unlucky."

You seem to have gotten your panties in a twist because you failed to understand that at that VERY moment I was being told about your "wave theory", I was also in discussion with other people on other subjects.  My comments section does not revolve around you and your "theories".
 

And I think "Mainstream" is being at least partially redefined, both by the market itself, and by the manufacturers.
 
Given that AMD only really needs 3 base chips (Plus cut down variants to fill in the gaps) to fill out their Desktop portfolio, this makes perfect sense.
 
Polaris 11 as the low end and Notebook chip
 
Polaris 10 as the mainstream chip
 
Vega as the high end chip
 
What they name it in the end? Who friggin' cares? They can call it a R7 460X for all I care, as long as the performance is where we want. If the R7 460X performs as well as a R9 390, then I would not call that a disappointment.
 
But of course, this is all speculation. You're speculating too, just the same as the rest of us. We're taking the information given, and trying to see where it'll come out.
 
Maybe Polaris 10 will be an R7 460/460x. Or maybe it'll be a R9 480x. Maybe it'll perform the same as a R9 370X. Maybe it'll match or beat a 390X.
 
We don't know for sure.

Congrats, you intentionally misled. The OP said med-high settings and you use a benchmark on full ultra to justify your statement. There is no need to have the settings maxed all of the way at 1440p.

HP introduces a new gorgeous looking 13inch laptop, with impressive specs.
The system is powered with Core i5 or i7 dual core CPUs (i5-6200U or i7-6500U), Intel HD Graphics 520, features a 1080p screen, 8GB of RAM, the base model features 256GB PCIe, option to go to 512GB. The display is not a touch screen, but features Gorilla Glass 4. The laptop is only 10.4mm thick
 
The laptop is the Spectre 13, featuring HP new and sleek company logo.
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 
Most of the body of the laptop is made in dark gray aluminum, its bottom is lighter-weight carbon fiber.
 
Mike Nash, HP's vice president of consumer PCs says:
The laptop features 9.5h of battery life, claims HP, and 2 fans to cools the CPU.
 
The laptop has headphone jack, 3 USB-Type C connector, where one can be used to charged the laptop, and 2 of these ports are Thunderbolt 3.

What do you think of HP new high-end laptop?

Gotta love how they compare overclocked to stock... It's not like you cant overclock a amd GPU lol. I get 100 mhz clock and 150 mhz on memory, sure it's not as much as Nvidia but it makes a vast difference.
such a retarded point considering 99% of people who overclock their GPUs use afterburner or equivalent which includes fan control lol...

I don't believe you ever did. But I would love to see a link where you explain why.
So you're on a vendetta for some unknown reason, so now you spend all your time spamming this forum with FUD about AMD? Yeah completely rational.
I know you won't see this as I'm on your ignore list, for pointing out all your BS. Ignore lists are pathetic and only used by people too weak minded to defend their points and unable to understand facts.
Polaris was revealed a long time ago, and to a much more detailed extent than Pascal. Both will release HBM2 cards about the same time, as the delay is due to lack of production rather than lack of cards.

I used to have an Xbox one but I traded it in for a PS4 because it has better exclusives and Xbox exclusives are coming to PC anyway.
 
Consoles that I have but don't use anymore:
PS3
Xbox 360
Sega Dreamcast

Can't really qualify this work as journalism. Sorry.
An "issue" shouldn't deprive the uploaded video (and audience, really) from displaying the results of one of the manufacturers top card (fury x).
 
 
1- You work the issue, you don't work around the issue.
 
 
2- This video was made because it was cost effective, as in "stuff was already kinda built, sort of". Good for you guys.
 
Never, ever, put out a review using results gathered from virtualized environments when the review sole purpose is "hardware". Test virtualization when reviewing virtualization.
 
 
3 - The results themselves have strange anomalies which should prompt proper investigation (290 > 390x? and by the way the 290 does not equate to 390 performance wise). You either commit or you dont.
 
 
This sort of quality downgrades linustechtips from a tech channel to a tech themed show.
 
cheers

While I own a GTX780 and it serves me very well, I am very glad nVidia is in big trouble if this is true.
nVidia has been horrible the past years. With the way how they skimp down the performance and their shit GimpWorks.
 
 
Exactly! Hopefully AC is completely broken in Pascal and AMD can finally get back in the game!
Competition is always good for us.

Some of the stuff. Not all. Not always 

AMDs stuff is open source so Nvidia has no problem implementing it. All this means is that AMD will have some engineers at ubisoft helping with the game dev.

Nope it means that any company can implement it properly. Say Nvidia for example.

AMD's gaming evolved program in general has a good track record on optimization. I.e. Running well on both AMD and Nvidia and scaling well across different tiers of hardware.
 
of course the main responsibility lies with the game devs. Not the IHVs
