Yeah I meant as of the day I mentioned it there was a patch that a friend said made it playable (compared to how bad it was at launch). I uninstalled it so I had room for Payday 2, which I'm loving.

Don't buy games unless its community vote, flash sale, or daily deal! Otherwise wait till the last day of the sale.
And there was a 650MB patch for DayZ, I hear its actually playable now.
On top of that, I bought it on launch and it is still not worth the price. It has not come very far since then either. I'm a big supporter but the lack of zombies that function makes the game a...

I believe you can also use your Witcher 2 key to get discount on GMG or GOG for W3.
It's on sale.
Wouldn't that gold melt? I mean, yeah it would be pretty.
Not to sound like a jerk, but I think I've heard that OpenGL will be the "standard" for the past 10 years.
Not necessarily. Mantle is supposedly very similar to the implementation of the consoles, as a developer or publisher, using methods and tools similar across multiple platforms reduces cost. ...
I'm not saying that Nvidia isn't benefiting from not having a price war, but what I am saying is you cannot claim a "win" when your binary competitor is selling out of its products and selling way...
Slightly OT, anyone know the ETA for the 20/22nm cards? Expectation next summer or fall?
That really isn't a logical conclusion. Bitmining isn't 'also' making Nvidia a 'winner'. AMD is making higher margin per production capacity due to this demand. Nvidia simply isn't losing. ...
I believe you would need multiple systems to create such a repeatable test. I don't know how many you would need, but essentially you would have to have multiple copies of BF4 running, run scripts...
Anyone see any benchmarks that work like this?
Low CPU + High GPU
Mid CPU + High GPU
High CPU + High GPU
Low CPU + Mid GPU
Mid CPU + Mid GPU
High CPU + Mid GPU
I'm not saying you can't be correct about the "native Mantle" idea you presented, but what I was saying based on the CPU bottleneck, the situation I presented the slower CPU is going to benefit more...
So you postulate that in BF4 when Mantle is finished you still will see a large variance in performance based on the capability of the CPU? For example if the 4770k is 10% faster than the 8350 right...
I think the reason you are seeing such a speed boost variance is based on what limitation a CPU bottleneck is affecting performance. While you may get 10% where no bottleneck exists, when you...
You guys...
So say we all

You know this thread is about Mantle not really about BF4 or EA, while there is a cause to bring it up in regards to Mantle, most of this is rather off-topic. I have no admin or mod power, so these...
I think what was probably the scenario was that AMD needed (or helped) make an API for all the console developers to use with AMD APUs, given that the consoles are x86, AMD took what they learned...
I was quite impressed by the demo, as well as all the information in the slides. While this was sponsored by AMD, it really sounds like developers really like the concept of Mantle and what it...
So, am I reading this right? Does that really say not only can Mantle work with most modern GPUs (Nvidia and older AMD), but it is AMD's strategy for it to be?
$450 seems too much for the 290 if the 290X is $500, I assume it wont be much more than 5-10% slower, but the gap from $300-450 from the 280X to the 290 is just large of a market gap in my opinion.
Down-sampling for current games not demanding it, and better running newer games.
