Multi-threaded command buffer recording opens up a wide communication lane between your AMD processor or APU and your AMD Radeon™ GPU – so more than one CPU core can talk to the GPU at a time. With DirectX® 11, most of the graphics work was loaded onto one core.
Much like going from a two-lane country road to an eight-lane superhighway, multi-threaded command buffer recording in DirectX 12 spreads work across cores and lets more traffic from a processor reach the graphics card in a shorter amount of time.

Hi, I'm having an issue with my card recently where the PC will crash randomly during games with a red screen crash , then reboot also red screen. Sometimes the next reboot will solve itself. Using Sapphire 7970 Vapor X GHZ 6GB.
Thanks for using an AMD powered product!
Looks like it's quite old, you might want to dust off certain parts but we think it's best you send for RMA.
It’s a well-built card – one of the best to have come our way all year – and it sets a very high bar for ASUS’s competition. The one drawback with the card is the price, and this goes hand-in-hand with the value spoiler effect we just covered. At $259 the STRIX R9 380X OC halves the premium for an R9 390/GTX 970, yet those cards are still 30%+ faster. It’s very hard to charge a premium price for a premium card in the current market, and while the STRIX R9 380X is a fantastic R9 380X, it’s none the less in a very awkward spot right below some very powerful video cards.
When you look at the Radeon R9 380X overall, performance, Eyefinity features, PCIe gen 3 compatibility and all other stuff then we can only conclude that, though we like these cards, they belong in the mainstream to even a bit of the high-end (but certainly not enthusiast) graphics card arena. Overall we think the R9 380X remains to be a an excellent Full HD gaming card and a pretty decent WQHD alternative. On very harsh on the GPU titles however you'll find yourself un-ticking graphics quality options pretty fast to gain on framerate performance , but that is the trade-off and nothing to be ashamed about with a 260 EURO product.
