[Kuzma]

._. at this point wondering if it would be worth blowing my entire build budget on a r9 290X

Big one...AUDIO

[Xorbot]

RIP headphone users.

[dyent10]

who was gushing for audio...

[Air tree]

We need the price point!

[warmmilk]

Imagine the r9 290x being $400

 

if that was the case they would have showed the 290 price with the rest.  the fact that they didn't, says that it'll be a bigger price jump then between the rest

[allthatremains94]

fully programable audio engine "True Audio Technology"

[allthatremains94]

Programmable shaders in 2002 = revolutionary. expression was made easier, True audio will provide same artistic freedom

[DirkaFat]

if that was the case they would have showed the 290 price with the rest.  the fact that they didn't, says that it'll be a bigger price jump then between the rest

I know, but it would be so cool, if it was actually $400, but broke the pattern to make it seem like it was more expensive.

 

 

It will probably be $550 or $600

That girl is cute.

Immediate benefits =  hundreds more real time voices and audio channels than what you can do today

 

immersive audio experienced integrated into game, virtual surround

[Wesley]

Wow with the audio tech any headset is a virtual 7.1 headset?

[Vitalius]

So they are basically saying that they are going to take the audio and put the work to do it onto the GPU rather than the CPU because CPU's are not good at it. 

... Alrighty then. Not sure how important that is, but whatever. Sounds cool. I'm in.

[allthatremains94]

position data extraxted directly from the game, virtual surround now is poo, ours is godly

[Drown]

What does the firestrike value mean?
