Apparently from latest update, the supposedly "Asyncompute.exe" program doesn't send compute workload to the compute queue on NVIDIA cards..whereas PhsyX games do async compute? source

Sad, need to sell my 980ti after all new game use Directx 12

I guess it won't be anytime sooner than 3 years.

By then, 980TI's performance probably just on par with the xx50 or xx60 series, LOL.

Thanka goodness i did not pull the trigger yet haha

Wait for actual AAA game release.

Nvidia does support async shader.

Not gonna jump because of a unfinished game by a small time developer with a hefty price tag.

that bad huh nvidia..but i wont sell my card yet, gonna stick with it a while longer

you wouldn't want it to peak but yes, high VRAM consumption is possible.

i hope DX12 can make NV don't be greedy.. AMD need to fight if not NV monopoly whole market.

async compute never support on maxwell so DX12 kantoi.

So latest update on the Async situation:-

source

arkham knight is fixed. Its good. Tested with 970m. Good. no stutter etc.

Time to test my new rig

Nvidia GPUs can be memory starved, look at how the GTX 960 gets performance boost when it's paired with 4GB RAM instead of 2GB.

i think vram is more suitable for multi-display purpose or higher resolution.

4gb is the new minimum for 1080p

But with the performance of 960, you probably will be suffer from low unplayable FPS before you able to utilise the 4GB fully, LOL.

Even my 970 is short in raw power to drive settings over 3GB VRAM.

I welcome big VRAM for 2 cases, mods and multicards. Else it's like paying extra for something you don't know when have the chance to be used.

Lol, i dont read above statement that they talk about GTX 960, inb4 GTX 980ti use 6.2GB ram in gta 5

GTX980Ti showing 8GB+ vram. 6.2GB vram is nothing.

Lol, bug or what??

You wouldn't want to do that, really.

Whether it's SYSTEM RAM or VIDEO RAM - being fully utilized is not a good thing.

In any case, GTA V i set it to 8x and you see the framerate is bad, drop it to 4x or 2x and IIRC it still takes up more than 2GB VRAM.

Look at Shadow of Mordor, that's totally acceptable framerate on full details but notice how more RAM actually helps the performance.

Bear in mind those are average FPS, it means you have higher max and higher min FPS too.

guys, is my gtx 760 a thing of the past already? is it time for me to let it go? it is still good tho just that I wanna be at par with newly released games.
