Think wont work with nvidia
Nvidia tends to do alot of firmware n architecture thingy.
Hence y lower overhead on cpu before from driver.

So thats y why u see on their roadmap theres unified mem/virtual mem etc.

Dx12 feature set etc was done really quickly n i am pretty sure it threw some wrenches into nvidia roadmap plans. Since nvidia tends to do two gen forward r&d

oh that sucks :{

so.... if wont work with amd gpus... then what about other nvidia gpus ?

when i attend this event, will see if they mention on that

That event. Will still be about gsync, dx12, etc same as 980ti event.

are you refering to the one in singapore ? or was there alrdy one in my :/ ? i must have missed that one then

Both.
Nvidia is doing more campaigning since they are flushed with cash. Not killing off amd but more like ensuring amd wont bounce back.

Yeah,the optimization problems will still be there. Bu still,i don't think it's worth it to SLI or CFX mid-range or low-range cards.

Yeah full 8gb with DX12, so i've heard. No more 50% only for the 2nd card and stuff.
Exciting times, but still depends on developers to fully utilize DX12.

Dell just announced their first G-sync monitor: S2716DG.
1440p, 144hz, G-sync and ULMB.

At first I was like awhhh yissss!! Then, I found out it's a TN panel. Fudge.

/waitingcontinues


*EDIT*
Yes, I know the TN panels on these sets will be of the highest of end panels. And yes I know IPS has its own set of issues too, backlight bleed and IPS glow are notorious on them. But damn, having used IPS for several years now, it is difficult to go back down to a different color gamut. It's just weird not being able to tell gradients apart, something which even the best TN panels cannot cope with.

Haha well said

DX12 still baby stage. So i aint jumping 2 soon yet. Hoping crysis 4 will be the first ever DX12 game since the previous sequence of farcry 1 first dx9 game crysis 1 first dx10 game and finally crysis 2 first dx11 game.

Haha this i like

Same lo. Never looked back at TN anymore after owning IPS for more than a year already. Haha.

"Currently is seems that Nvidias Maxwell architecture (Series 900 cards) does not really support Asynchronous compute in DX12 at a proper hardware level. Meanwhile AMD is obviously jumping onto this a being HUGE and they quickly prepared a PDF slide presentation with their take on the importance of all this. Normally I'd share add the slides into a news item, but this is 41 page of content slides, hence I made it available as separate download.

In short, here's the thing, everybody expected NVIDIA Maxwell architecture to have full DX12 support, as it now turns out, that is not the case. AMD offers support on their Fury and Hawaii/Grenada/Tonga (GCN 1.2) architecture for DX12 asynchronous compute shaders. The rather startling news is that Nvidia's Maxwell architecture, and yeah that would be the entire 900 range does not support it. I can think of numerous scenarios as to where asynchronous shaders would help."

but but Nvidia says...

" We’re more than ready. GPUs built on our Maxwell GPU architecture – such as our recently released GeForce GTX 970 and GeForce GTX 980 – fully support DX12. "

Hmm.......well......Oxide better ensure its claim is true.....otherwise, if nvidia 'magically' fixes the async issue (even if it up to 31/32 queue), Oxide reputation will be questionable.

support doesn't mean will include everything

well it was speculated that nvidia does have async compute, but that most likely it's emulated, considering this recent issue by oxide, then that could explain their current results.

but that is still speculation, though a rather logical one judging by the results so far.

This --> MSI 980TI Lightning

Any1 Getting this ???

Haha i guess is very true we better wait pascal

even i'm NV fan-boy also can't denied DX12 is goin to favor for red side. previously NV driver is superior but now different story. inikali DX11 we owned but DX12 lain kali-lah..

the Quote: Focus on "Fully support"

We’re more than ready. GPUs built on our Maxwell GPU architecture – such as our recently released GeForce GTX 970 and GeForce GTX 980 – fully support DX12.

Funny how NVIDIA actually losses performance when going for DX12 API at Ashes of Singularity benchmark.. maybe they optimized their DX11 drivers too well?

Support async or not, what's important is the actual FPS of the game.. if anyone is quoting Ashes of Singularity benchmark saying AMD has better implementation, check again.. R9 390X is also performing close to R9 Fury too. (source: http://www.pcgameshardware.de/Ashes-of-the...tX-11-1167997/) It is just that AMD DX11 implementation is so bad that it makes DX12 looks very good.

One thing we know for sure, currently NVIDIA has the market share (82%!). Who knows what will happen to future DX12 games, especially those GameWorks titles.
