[matin94]

YES.YES.YES. Time to see what happens with two HD 7950s

 

Edit-

Why wouldn't it? Mantle supports all gcn architecture which includes the 7000 series. Or is there an issue with bf4? I ran the star swarm demo today, and mantle was like a night and day difference. 

 

Edit- 

And I haven't noticed any issues running mantle, and I've noticed about a 5fps gain on average in BF4

Any of you notice image quality differences in BF4 with Mantle? Seems there is a "bug" where Mantle is using less draw distance and fog. But rendering more/different shadows?

 

Some chaps @ FutureMark have been discussing it.
