Yeah, but the 980's still play every title... If your only looking for Horse Power and numbers to post from FPS then cool that's what you value....

Look at 4k performance. I agree, bc I have a 980, but I use it for 1080p.

Ok any what titles are you not able to play at 1080p  that warrants an upgrade?

none, but my oculus stutters sometimes and 980 can barely do 4k

If your goal is 4k and using an oculus, then perhaps an upgrade would implied because you can still get a decent return on your 980. If you didn't game in 4k or us an oculus I would argue to wait. I ran my 290x all the way up until I was ready to upgrade to 1440p UW. Didn't see a reason if I was just gaming 1080p.

It won't be completely obsolete, but look at 980 or 980ti, they are nowhere near 1080/1080ti performance.

Yeah well neither is the fury x... But they're not obsolete...

Thats not the point, last gens high end is on par with this gens mid-low range. Vega will last longer because it still has optimization

AMD Cards have a tendency to get alot better as new drivers are released and new games come out.

If they do a refresh of the card like with the 2XX 3XX cards but it is obvious why that happens optimizing for the old card also optimizes for the new one and vice versa. So if they refresh vega that will likely happen but if not it will end up like the fury

Have you not heard of the orange box?  Even Portal 2 is on consoles.  TF, Half-Life 1[think 2 as well], Portal, and Portal 2 are all on consoles.  These are Valve games.  Even L4d and L4D2 are on consoles.  There are RTS games on consoles too.

He meant it differnetly. They were saying that console games were optimized for amd because amd powers consoles

Ok but he meant it as optimization for console but WTF anyway

So, he's complaining that a game is optimized?  Okay then.  Nvidia has plenty more optimized games, so if anything it's the dev to blame unless the card maker directly pays off the dev via a bribe.

Exactly. He says that Vega preforms well in Forza 7 and Shadow of Wat because they are console optimized and consoles run of of amd

No actually, I totally forgot about the old guard games they have.  I was thinking moreof CS, gmod etc. And while I concede there are like 3 console rts it's not common, especially versus the plethora on PC.

How is optimization a bad thing?  I'd be more annoyed if there was no optimization for the card.  xD Like I mean devs do get pretty lazy with optimization and support.  It's why I don't crossfire and SLI anymore.  You get some games that support it, but when you have a 500 game library on steam 3/4+ of your games are going to crash with either enabled then it will sound like your speakers have a gas problem.

Optimization is great, never said it's a negative thing.  Ppl seem to think that I meant "vega is only better because it's optimized, this is bad" It's more of a "vega is doing well on well optimized titles, this is to be expexted of more in the future"
