Assassin's Creed: Rogue announced for PC

[JR23]

Black Flag was a good port. Never had a problem with it at max settings. GPU usage stayed near 100% the whole time(meaning no weird frame rate drops) and never had a bug.

They did actually patch a bug in towards the end so that it was impossible to start one of the missions. Had to download an earlier version of a file for the Principe map and replace the updated one so I could complete the game. Other than that I thought it was great and pretty flawless tbh. Loved it and can't wait for Unity and Rogue.

It was terrible if you didn't have an Nvidia card. My 280x struggled with it. Gameworks didn't help either.

That's sad because it was a great experience for me with all the eye candy and G-Sync, without getting out onto the thin fanboy ice AMD cards do seem struggle and spit out poop in the process. I don't know enough as to comment why but from what i've seen of my friends rigs, one guy has a 280x and the other briefly had a 290 even though the numbers are impressive the experience isn't all that. I really must make a point of owning some AMD stuff down the road.

Eh, I see what you mean with some games, however Gameworks is an Nvidia only thing and they don't really let AMD see the code (or something like that). Because of this, it really screws AMD cards over. I personally hate G sync as it'd force me to just go for Nvidia cards for a good long while.

When a game isn't biased through stuff like gameworks, AMD is on par/will better Nvidia, especially now they know how to do drivers n stuff. I've had a great experience with AMD and I only really got a 780Ti as I felt like a change (and the reference cooler looks nice and works, what a deal!). Also I felt that I hadn't benched anything Nvidia properly for a while ;D

Hmmm yep I think its about time I did the opposite of you, just in case GTA V likes AMD cards some reference 290X's out there for ~£230 which sounds like quite a dealio. I partially understand your feelings about G-Sync, it's tech that should be available to everyone but kudo's to nVidia for getting it out to market first and making some dollar it's really good.

WC'd 290x cards seem to be a very good idea. Build a bench rig out of bits you have (all the cool kids i.e. me are doing it ) then see what you can do! That said, I'd imagine you can't push reference AMD cards very far...

my 7950 ran it perfectly.
