QUOTE(gogo2 @ Jan 30 2015, 09:58 AM) That's why we need 8GB per card so that when the processing power is twice, the RAM need to go twice Now very few case 4GB bottle neck. But I really don't care about now. I care about DirectX 12 and Mantle. Those two will use huge amount of VRAM  Source?  But I would like to see better games... I think games these days are prioritizing too much on graphics, instead of gameplay and technical issues.

QUOTE(wongkoewei @ Jan 30 2015, 10:19 AM) A million agree!!! many games i have played actually feel much interesting on their older version, like C&C tiberian series, I like Tiberium wars better than crappy latest end story Tiberium Twilight. Red Alert 2 was the 1st ever game I played, That feeling was soooo great. Many franchises tend to keep similar game play as their predecessors, Like COD series, I actually do not see any difference in gameplay since the first modern warfare when i start played this series, what different just the graphic and so called story (FPS got story???)  FPS got story... I mean old ones like CoD 1, which is one of the best FPS I used to play...  BTW, AMD is having a good time with disgruntled 970 owners... http://wccftech.com/amd-offering-discounts...ry-controversy/This post has been edited by chocobo7779: Jan 30 2015, 10:31 AM

QUOTE(gogo2 @ Feb 2 2015, 12:16 PM) If you Crossfire 290x 8GB, you effectively got 16GB VRAM!!!!  Nope, the VRAM will be mirrored (i.e. the maximum usable VRAM is 8GB in this case), and not doubled.

I was thinking of getting a Wii U... Since there are little titles on PC that really entices me. This post has been edited by chocobo7779: Feb 2 2015, 07:19 PM

QUOTE(pspslim007 @ Feb 2 2015, 11:06 PM) hi guys, just curious is 6970 able to play unity at 1080p with decent FPS ? Thanks =3 I presume your definition for decent FPS is >30FPS...  Anyway, AC Unity is pretty badly optimized... Strangely, I don't know how Ubisoft has one of the worst ports of this gen while they managed to craft games with amazing quality (i.e. UbiArt games such as Child of Light).

Well, what gogo2 said is pretty much accurate http://www.overclock.net/t/1539218/robert-...lti-gpu-configsNow, all we need is games that take advantage of this.... But when?

QUOTE(Minecrafter @ Feb 3 2015, 11:15 AM) Ubisoft's logic: Quality > Game performance So..if you're using e.g. R9 280X 3GB CFX,you have 6GB vRAM then?  No, not really, but their AAA games was horrible, but their smaller titles are much better.  Yes, if and only if the games support Mantle.

QUOTE(Minecrafter @ Feb 3 2015, 11:52 AM) I wonder why would they release a game that is badly optimized when they can delay it,but if they do it that way,then maybe short temper (  ) gamers would've protest.. If it's true,then maybe game developers might want to add Mantle ro rheir games. 
Unfortunately, nVidia can coax developers to use GameWorks by handing them wads of bills and publicity...

Power figures and temps for the R9 300 series has been leaked, thanks to Chiphell: http://www.overclock.net/t/1539306/r9-300-...erature-figuresTake this as a huge grain of salt.

QUOTE(antaras @ Feb 6 2015, 11:00 AM) Hope it's not these long cards... one of the reason I went with Asus instead of the G1 Gaming is coz of my damn case can't fit in! T_T  My TJ08-E can put in graphics card up to 13 inches long...

QUOTE(wongkoewei @ Feb 7 2015, 10:48 PM) Yes, I have heard of that. I have tested this card with some of my favourite games (Watch dogs, COD AW, World of tanks etc), so far so good. PS: never let it went through stressing software like furmark tho Use Unigine for GPU stress test...

QUOTE(S4PH @ Feb 9 2015, 11:08 AM) kena upgrade win10  , i dowan to part with win 7 superb os, if just mantle is enabled on newer titles i will use win7 forever   Windows 10 is amazing, at least I tried in VM...  IMO, Windows 8.1 is actually superior to 7, even with the controversial modern UI. Now waiting for my upgrade.

QUOTE(ah_fong @ Mar 26 2015, 12:40 PM) wanna ask r9 m280x can use asus tweak ?? or other software ? my laptop n551zu damm hot wanna throttle down abit ! Not sure, but you may want to use MSI Afterburner to turn down the clocks, or go with the hard way: disassemble your laptop, and replace the thermal paste with a decent one.  I don't think you can undervolt a GPU, but please correct me if this turn out to be false.
