When were you when AMD gave up on your freedoms?
Should've stuck with Nvidia instead of whining about "muh gimping"

Windows 10 shills are the worst

>AMD's chips also support vulkan

I wouldn't call one product benefiting from a particular API more than another product "only running good on one API".

Sounds totally fair to me, AMD now has a chance against Nvidia® GimpWorks™.

Literally everything in that image was cancer.

Colon cancer from by a butthurt faggot.

>>55093808
AMDGPU, the plethora of contributions to GCC and Vulkan negate all your FUD and shitposting
>>
>>55093808
AMD is also pushing Vulkan and AMD GPU PRO drivers so games can run well on Linux. You're just not well informed to know this. The problem will be, are devs going to take advantage of this.
>>
>>55093808
where the fuck did the cpu only working with windows 10 come from?
>>
>>55096204

A gross misunderstanding of MS's security policies in relation to UEFI. Intel is in the same boat fyi.
>>
AMD's cards also support Vulkan which works everywhere and also supports OpenGL and DX11 and prior.
>>
>>55094696
That is actually Nvidia's fault, both Vulkan and DX12 were inspired on AMD's Mantle (Vulkan is actually based on it). Nvidia could have implemented the Mantle API (AMD said they would be happy if they did), but the green jews said "fuck it" and now their cards flagships get outperformed by AMD rebrands.

Actually, it seems AMD is doing well lately: they have the consoles monopoly for this generation and the next, they will have the best bang for the buck card probably until winter and they outperform nvidia in both of the new apis.
>>
>>55095482
They've also released a bunch of GPU documents for their own GPUs and they've released documents and demos for using various graphical effects with the GPUOpen initiative.
>>
>>55096290
any basis for this to be true or is it completely unfounded?
>>
>>55096385
Why would Nvidia need the API of some shitty poo in loo tech company?

You guys speak like AMD is the goody two shoes of tech, really they just do this because they cant compete in the first place.
>>
>>55096589
dx 12 is a microsoft standard dumbfuck. blame nvidia they're the one don't want dx12.
>>
>>55096649
Yeah but you guys say "Nvidia couldve used FreeSync and Mantle"

Why do that when they can make technology thats 10x better
>>
>>55094696
There are people who are this retarded on /g/, mainly in smartphone and graphics card threads.

Nvidia has official free and open driver for their GPUs these day, right?

Nvidia are shitting themselves.

They have good and stable drivers on linux, and they are actively contributing to the kernel and release open source software and makes a lot of things open in general.
What are you talking about ?
>>
>>55093808
Nvidia shills are getting desperate. AMD must be doing something right.
>>
>>55097563
So a 390x is still 50$ cheaper than a 970. k nvidia
