SHOTS FIRED AMD!!!

[JefferyD90]

While ISP's call it traffic shaping, I shall call this "Driver shaping"!

[ShadowCaptain]

Oh, so it's basically crossfire 290X vs single 780 Ti? That kind of explains the odd numbers.

Yeah, so they twisted the fact nvidia have a software problem to make it look like their new flagship stomps it into the ground

 

Im sure nVidia can fix this with a simple update, then AMD can stop being like "OMG WE ARE 1337" when simply it was a small software issue and not that Nvidia cards are incapable of playing at those framerates at 4k

[Misanthrope]

Brass ones AMD, that's some really tough talk for someone looking down the barrel of the obviously superior Maxwell gun with nothing to show for since water cooling will only take you so far. How about you release some fucking new architecture?

[ivhyn]

Nvidia told shit with their magic driver, now AMD uses a simple software bug to promote their GPU, that's how companies work.

[Warcony]

Another day and the GPU Wars still rage on.

u should put a better title that reflects the content as opposed to sounding like a middle school student.

[ACatWithThumbs]

Those benchmarks are stupid they're comparing the R9-295X2 with a single GTX780ti.








 

[Brainless906]

Nvidia technology doenst play nice with these monitors guys! Its not fair to compare them guys! Pointing out a feature works really well on your hardware vs the compitions broken software isnt FAIR! GUUUUYYYYSSSSSSSSSS, ITS NOT FAIR TO COMPARE FEATURESSSSSSSS. Here, Let me tell you now how Physx and Gsync make Nvidia the best choice when comes to gpus....

Lol also remember all that shit we gave AMD about Crossfire and frame timing when the drivers didnt support it very well? Lol that was really fun, Nvidia would never have somethign not work with the drivers/hardware they provide.

I still call bull. Even if AMD has an edge, with Mantle. Remember when the 780Ti kept up to the 290X with no problem (with it using Mantle)?

It isn't fair.

They are strait up lying.

Nvidia has no SLI support on those Monitors so it's not 2x GTX780ti vs R9-295X2 which they are claiming.

You should type full words and junk while telling somebody about how much of a child they are coming across as.

No a straight up lie would be showing your audiance that then will get 30-50 percent performance in DX11 games with the latest update to the driver, and then ya know...not even coming close....

Does nvidia software say its running in SLI with these monitors? yes.

Does nvidia hardware seem to benafit from being in SLI with these monitors? No.

On a scale of 1 to "they do not perform well in SLI mode"....They don't perorm well in SLI mode.

This is showing the SLI perfformance gain isn't there even in SLI mode...What of it? Clever marketing it is, lying it is not.

Edit: i take it back, its not even clever....its basic marketing...point out when your opponents weaknesses....

Edit: Also "Multi-GPU gaming on a 4k60 SST Display is significantly faster on AMD Radeon Products thanks to our close relationship in the display industry."

Oh look, they worked with an industy partner and got an edge over somebody who didnt, pls tell me again how unfair this is.

That being said I wont actually trust anything till i see benchmarks from somebody I trust but lets not all jump on the fanboy train quite yet.

[coreRoss]

Everyone lies.

Read into it a little. Nvidia has issues with performance when using SLI and these monitors.

[Dylan522p]

Wow AMD, this is just shady.......

[DaRk0]

AMD and their overhyped statements...

[ionbasa]

pretty sure mantle doesnt support CF yet

The driver could have been an internal modified version. Yes, I know the caption states it was a WHQL driver, but you can never be too sure.

[One Who Craves Souls]

AMD taunting Nvidia.

[exyia]

for the love of god, can kids on this forum stop with the sensationalist news thread titles?

 

I can't even browse this section of the forum for news anymore - it's just tons of "LOL", "SHOTS FIRED", "OMG", "IF THIS IS TRUE..."

 

you have the whole forum post to put whatever your opinion is, but ffs leave the title relevant to the actual news

[KakaoDj]

For god's sake, stop it with the retarded titles and the shitty original posts, put some effort into it. We really need some mods here.

Yep, it's a pain to enter each thread just to see what's about.

i don't see any twisted fact here, AMD pretty much explain the situation in the article:

BENCHMARKING SST 4K60

While individual graphics cards like the AMD Radeon™ R9 290X have architectural optimizations to support 4K resolutions, many gamers understandably turn to multi-GPU configurations (e.g. AMD CrossFire™ technology) to squeeze the most performance out of their shiny new UltraHD setup.

 

In the below performance comparison (figure 3) between the AMD Radeon™ R9 295X2 and SLI GeForce GTX 780 Ti, the benefit of AMD’s robust relationships within the display industry is clear: AMD Catalyst™ is ready to support high-performance gaming experiences on 4K60 SST displays, but our competition clearly has more work to do.  

..............................................................

..................................................................

 

And now we are first to market with fully-functional, day-one support for the latest and greatest UltraHD panels with 60 Hz SST scalers. If nothing else, this represents our commitment to serve you – our  loyal and enthusiastic customers – with healthy engineering efforts to comprehensively support state-of-the-art gaming experiences.

 

 

 

they even put a link to OCN with response from NVIDIA Rep. about the situation;

 

Thanks. Filing bug now and going to have our QA team investigate.

Discovered cause. This monitor is a single tile 4K monitor. Driver support will appear in our next major driver branch.

EDIT: We are backporting SLI driver support for this monitor into our current driver branch so now our next driver release will support 4K at 60Hz in SLI mode on the Samsung UD590

 

 

it's just that some people are lazy enough these days and just see the graph then leave without reading the article, enough to understand the situation (well, linus also complained about it at the wan show RTFA!), and to make it worse just like mentioned above, make a news thread and changes the original title with somewhat "interesting" one.

[Kamina]

AMD is doing what Nvidia does best, lies.

Exactly, as far as I read, AMD actually never sad that there cards were superior to Nvidia cards in 4K gaming on SST displays. They just said that they were ready fro 4K gaming on SST displays.

[Linus_torvalds]

Remember AMD s benching in windows 8 and with Mantle. Anandtech is benching in win7 and with DX11.

mantle was made for AMDs CPU because they are much slower then intel CPUs and they bottleneck many, many videocards. here look how FX 8320 on 4.7 GHZ is bottlenecking GTX 660 ti LOL and you want this CPU paired with something like 295x2? 

AMD fans do not say anything AMD CPUs suck!!!!!!!!

mantle adds FPS if you had slow CPU and it was bottleneck for your GPU but if you had i7 4770k it wouldnt bottleneck any AMD GPU and mantle will gain nothing in that setup.

 

here is my i7 3770 4 core 4.3 ghz + GTX 660 1080 mhz see scores GPU 28117 CPU 29202

 

here is FX 8320 8 core  4.7 GHZ + GTX 660 ti 1099 mhz see scores GPU 27337 CPU 24861
