>amd driver is broken during first week of release
Again surprising no one, amd fans included

The thing is though that gaming isn't just a service; after updates the card will perform properly, and after the vulkan update it will BTFO of even the 980ti
>>
What's there to defend? There shouldn't be that big of a difference between these two cards. Is iD using gamewerks or did they fuck this up some other way?

Honest question though: why do GPUfags get so attached to whatever card they bought? AMD and Nvidia are both fine. Competition is a good thing.

It's because GCN 1.1 (hawaii) doesn't support 4.5 completely (2 addons that don't work) and GCN 1.1 doesn't work well with openGL. GCN 1.2 (285, 380, fury) work fine.

>OpenGL 4.3 vs 4.5
Reasons? Developers are mum about it.

There is a 99.999999% chance iD is not actually using OpenGL but rather NVAPI pathway. They most likely programmed the game in NVAPI and had all the optimization for nvidia as their first choice. iD and nvidia have a history, afterall. The beta was running 4.5 for AMD, so what changed? Most likely nvidia specific addons that does not work for AMD, so the game went to fallback mode.

Pure speculation, but since there is no word from the devs, I'll take this as close to truth over silence.

this is typical nvida jew tactics, they did the same with the gears of war remaster with added goymworks where amd performace was abysmal day 1 and then later fixed in a patch where amd cards even came out on top.

OpenGL works around extensions, Khronos release the specifications for the features and Nvidia/AMD make their own extensions to get the feature work on their hardware, AMD is so shitty that their OpenGL "vanilla" extensions don't even work, meanwhile Nvidia is so good that they make extensions that are surpass Khronos specifications, they even have near zero driver overhead on OpenGl, pretty close to DX12 or Vulkan.

For some "unknown" reason, AMD cards ran the same, newer version of opengl that Nvidia did in alpha and beta, and performance on AMD wrecked Nvidia. But now, AMD cards are forced to run an older, poorly optimized version in the final release, while Nvidia still runs the newer version.

This looks extremely shady on id softwares part, especially considering their history with Nvidia. $10 says gtx 1080 benchmarks go up at least 2 full days, before it's patched.

>why do GPUfags get so attached to whatever card they bought?
A better question to ask is why do GPU fags don't know anything about hardware-software interaction, or even the various processing units and components on GPUs,
proven by the fact that they jerk off over framerate graphs that get outdated the moment game is patched or a driver update is released,
and further proven by the fact that they think memory and clock rates alone constitute GPU performance.

Because they are gaymer fags and don't know shit about anything. Never have, never will.

That's why gaymes get progressively worse every month in terms of coding while gamerfags keep shifting the blame of poor game performance from poor game coding onto GPUs.
That's why gaymerfags keep jerking about consoles even today, without any heed or notice of console manufacturers stopping the subsidization and software development support for game developers like Sony did during the PS1 era and Microshit did during the Windows GUI development era;
without any heed or notice of the industry becoming exponentially anti-consumer to the point where Sonyfags for instance don't utter a word about Sony losing free online play, a police that was the tool of jeering towards Xbox when Sony had free online.

Gaymers are the most cancerous and retarded collective in the whole entertainment industry. Even movie fags are above them since movie fags at least criticize the poor state of the industry wholesomely, and at least care to remember individual film-maker staff rather than just superficial brand names.

That's why these threads about gaymer GPUs (GeForce and Rx series cards) should be purged from /g/ and contained to /v/.
The IQ of /g/ would jump by about 60 points at least if that happened.

Are you daft?
Game bugs that affect gpu actions generally can be patched, and most of the time are patched, by manufacturers. And it's a big problem.

ive seen some retards in my short time in gpu threads but this guy takes the cake. driver level optimizations do not fix in game bugs and glitches like the broken shadows which is causing bad performance in doom on amd hardware. the patch which was release for the 390 (only) fixes some opengl compatibly problems and doesnt fix the game bugs like you retards believe. a 35% boost is fuck all compared to where it should be. watch the digital foundry video again, the 970 had a performance lead of over 200% at points so a 35% increase is going to do fuck all. this can only be fixed by the devs and not by amd like this fuckbrain >>54594467 thinks.

I can't. I've pretty much only ever bought AMD cards and I can say they're unequivocally inferior to nVidia.

I owned a GTX270 at one point, and a few really old cards like a Geforce 2MX, but really AMD consistently has less visual features, has worse support with games and gets worse performance with most things. Even fucking Neptunia wouldn't run at 60fps on my 7970.

Pic related is the only proof I have left that I owned AMD cards. Even when these were new they sucked at playing games.
>>
>>54595562
Neptunia have shitty optimization regardless of your gpu anon.
>>
>>54595627
I had an AMD CPU too. My ex-bf had an Intel CPU and he could run it at 60fps.
AMD sucks.
>>
>>54595293
>watch the digital foundry video again, the 970 had a performance lead of over 200% at points so a 35% increase is going to do fuck all.

DF posted a new video with the driver update.
It put 390 10fps less than 970 on average.

Also, its 'Up to 200%' not 'constantly 200%'.
>>
>>54595636
>Ex-bf
Ah, so you're a faggot. Makes sense.
>>
>>54595636
AMD CPU and AMD GPU are not same.

It is a known factor that AMD CPU have less IPC than Intel CPU. GPU wise, the difference is mainly due to the game developer leanings and the backroom deals. Gameworks/Asynch Compute/OpenGL/DX12 etc, will all produce different results. As well as if you pay attention to major Game Engines, you can tell which games will be good at what vendor. Frostbite engines for example run extremely well on both GPU, they are optimized for both. Unreal Engine is optimized for Nvidia (deep long partnership). And so on.

GPU segment issues are most likley due to "political" nature of the game developer/vendor relationship.

>>54595691
Its an openGL game, its a given that Nvidia perform better in that department.
>>
>>54595691
Only marginally and they will have to update again when the Vulkan patch comes.
They probably know AMD is faster than Nvidia in Vulkan so they wait for the 1080 release.

Enjoy your 970 being utterly worthless a couple of weeks from now when driver support ends. :^)

Can anyone with AMD confirm if the new driver enables OGL 4.5 in Doom?
>>
>>54595785
What's the downside of not updating drivers exactly? You're already comfortable with the performance why not just let it be? New games would work just fine wouldn't they? Maybe dual-boot a test OS? What's the purpose of updating nvidia drivers when you have no problems?

The card slowly dies off, but the 970 will be fine in dx11 and opengl/vulkan.
>>
>>54596153
Because as seen in this very thread, drivers are required for decent performance in new games. AMD literally doubled their performance with a driver update. The issue isn't that you're not getting more performance when Nvidia stop updates, it's that you're getting less. New games run like shit and are never fixed via driver updates on older cards.

The one exception was when The Witcher 3 ran like absolute fucking trash on Kepler and people kicked up a massive stink about it, which resulted in a one-time-only, never repeated since performance fix for that one game on Kepler cards, and it made a massive difference.

Maxwell owners will get to experience this joy too now. Upgrade or die, goyim. ;^)
