[WYP]

Next month's PC release of Hitman will feature DX12 and make use of Asynchronous Compute on AMD GPUs. Which GPUs will have the best performance in DirectX 12?

Oooo them's fighting words!

I hope this gives AMD a properly big performance advantage over Nvidia so Nvidia take notice

I'd rather people take notice than anything so they can see AMD aren't as bad as people make them out to be. Performance should be very good in this upcoming title

Indeed, I'd still have my Fury X if it didn't leak from one of the tubes, At the time no where had them in stock and the retailer said the wait time would be around 6 weeks hence I ended up getting the 980 Ti as I couldn't do without a GPU due to working from home.

Ya I don't blame you for not waiting. Personally I probably would have dropped down to 390x in Xfire or similar

Honestly not a fan of multi GPU setups, mGPU cards are different but not 2 x individual cards

I just like the look
Hopefully DX12 allows devs more control on implementing better AFR/SCR(slpit screen rendering or whatever it's called) and provides us with better results in the future. Would help Nvidia/AMD sell more GPUs

Maybe the game will go on sale by the time AMD release their flagship.

I'll be getting this just to see what impact if any it will do with my 5820K and R9 Fury

That is a sign from God that you need to get that card back and slap a full custom loop inside your case!

I agree. I don't get why people bash AMD so much. I have clan mates that doesn't even look at what amd is doing. People bitch and moan about Gameworks but still have Nvidia GPU's. AMD is really awesome GPU's. I saw on youtube a video where the r9 390 is faster than gtx 970 in Far cry primal while costing less so a win for AMD. AMD freesync also cheaper option.

People should also stop with the "you pay more for quality" that is BS. I had r9 280x crossfire but apart from no crossfire profiles it was running just fine on my 1440p 110hz monitor. The gpu's wasn't strong enough to handle new games so I upgraded it. Nvidia is not much better these days with SLi support.
