Time spy doesn't actually use asynchronous compute, it uses concurrency which is different.

'I should note that the primary performance benefit as implemented in Time Spy is via concurrency, so everything here is dependent on a game having additional work to submit and a GPU having execution bubbles to fill.'

http://www.anandtech.com/show/10486/futuremark-releases-3dmark-time-spy-directx12-benchmark

Time Spy does not use parallelism for async compute thus it does not support AMD's async compute proper. It is heavily biased towards Nvidia's preemption etc

Basically you can't use Time Spy to compare AMD to Nvidia on a level playing field. You would need it to change the algorithm for each so that Nvidia gets the best score possible using it's architecture and change it to parallel to get the best from AMD. Just using one type of system for both skews the results.

AMD is not crying they are laughing because Vulkan and DX12 in games clearly shows that 3dmark is not telling us the truth. Otherwise we would not be seeing such significant gains in Doom. RotTR, Hitman, AotS etc.

It is annoying that 3dmark gimped Time Spy though. I shall be posting on their forums asking why this is the case once the site is back up (conveniently it's down right now. It's almost like they are deliberately avoiding the backlash).

you clearly don't know the difference between parallelism and concurrency

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1050222/concurrency-vs-parallelism-what-is-the-difference

AMD has true concurrency (SMs can be utilized for general compute work while graphics is bottlenecked by ROPs/TMUs/other fixed function hardware), NVIDIA only preempts between the two which leaves some parts of the GPU idle.

We've been over this. The card come with insufficient power distribution and the cheapest possible cooler.
AIB models get a much beefier cooler and 8pin or dual 6-pin power, so they'll be able to squeeze out way better overclocks. Even the biggest anti-AMD shill site on the planet has confirmed that they are easily getting 1350-1500mhz on the cards depending on silicon quality.

RX 480 was supposed to not be that good, but in the end with the drivers and the non reference GPU coming we're probably going to have a very good GPU for the price. You can't compare them at this point, wait a month or two so you'll have something more reliable.

If you want to gimp 3Dmark further towards Nvidia just leave your card running at 100% fan speed for 10 minutes then run 3Dmark with the demo before the benchmark disabled.

>>55605959

You do understand that 1) those are boost clocks and 2) boost is inherently a form of automatic overclocking until the card hits either its bios defined temp limit or power draw limit.

Plus overclocking Nvidia cards is essentially getting the card to always run at a given frequency, rendering the point of boost irrelevant.

wut? no it doesn't. overclocking an nvidia gpu through afterburner would just tack the extra clock speed onto whatever boost clock your card is running at under load.

You should see the shitstorm he caused over on OCN when ashes of the singularity made news for its heavy usage of async compute. In a nutshell the Nvidia crowd told mahigan that he is wrong and a fucking shill and that other DX12 titles that aren't AMD propganda will show Nvidia's dominance.

People expect too much from the benchmark. It does employ async compute, just not in the manner many had hoped after AMD's marketing of the term. AMD has stretched the definition a bit far because they have so much hardware capable of handling it.
>>
>>55607169
I think people are too obsessed with their religion.. I mean brand winning. They'll go to any lengths to make it seem like their product is the best even when it's not.

That benchmark hardly even makes AMD products look bad. The RX 480 was supposed to be faster than GTX 980... and it is. Or maybe it was 970, but I digress. That seems like a pretty good result to me.
>>
>>55607246

It doesn't help timespy is hot on the heels of doom's vulkan patch which uses quite a lot of GCN favouring features which is why you see those enormous jumps (especially the fury x).

With the trend of DX12 titles (and much misunderstood, but hyped async compute) generally running faster on GCN people were hoping to see more gains from timespy given historically 3dmark's benchmarks have been about squeezing as much fro ma gpu as possible.

It is fairly odd in a round about way to have a synthetic benchmark show lesser gains than in real vidya, but here we are.

It's not that odd, synthetic benchmarks hardly ever give you performance that represents games. That's why everyone calls them synthetic.

He's technically just bitching about semantics and marketing though. I think the asynchronous meme should die already.

I don't fucking care HOW the GPU delivers performance. I care what the performance is. If AMD Fury X delivers like 50% more performance than GTX 1080, I damn well don't give a fuck how it got there - just that it did.

I have had my 7850 2gb since 2012 and while it's tempting to get a 480 or 1060 I think I'm gonna stay put for now. I can get by at 1080p high settings in the majority of games when turning down shadows and some other filters like SSAO in certain games.

Witcher 3 so far has been the only game that I feel like really pushes my GPU, while I can keep textures on high I have to set shadows and draw distance to medium and even then I get 30-40fps.

I'm more or less a poorfag, so when I make my next upgrade I want it to be a massive jump, I might have to wait 2-3 years, I plan on being able to play games at ultra 1440p or high/ultra at 4K by then. There's really nothing out there right now that I NEED to play at ultra settings and 60fps. If anything I might get a PS4 sometime in the next year if Horizon and other exclusives turn out to be good since right now the PS4 is just an anime simulator, CoD box, and Bloodborne machine.

Awesome, nearly $100 more expensive after you pay the Nvidia tax and the most marginal "improvement" over the 480 imaginable - you'd have to be an idiot to waste money on a 1060. Sure if you're going high-end then buy Nvidia, but AMD's completely conquered the entry and mid level part of the market this time around.

amd receives stronger, HIGHER gains than nvidia with pascal. maxwell is so bad that nvidia has async disabled via the drivers on maxwell series cards.

how can anyone look at this and claim there the same???

also i own a 1080 and its not hard to look at these and see gcn being overall STRONGER at async than nvidia. all 3dmark just did was PROVE amd's lead with dx12 and vulkan over nvidia.

Those numbers are pulled completely out of thin air, and even if it's real (it's not) the 480 has already highhandedly outsold both the 1070 and the 1080 this generation so very soon we're going to see those two lines start to converge. When consumers realize what a ripoff the $300 "founders edition" of the 1060 is, those lines will probably cross.

Absolutely not, if the 170 and the 1080 are any indication. They've already said the Founder's Edition is $299, and we STILL haven't seen 1070 or 1080 prices drop down to what Nvidia claimed the MSRP was supposed to be. In other words, Nvidia is just deceitfully using a bullshit price point to score cheap headlines about how reasonably priced their cards are and capture the hype before they're actually released.

Maybe a few months from now once people have realized how badly they were swindled prices will drop down to reasonable levels, but as it stands now the only choice an informed consumer has is AMD.

>>55607317
>much misunderstood, but hyped async compute

Considering AMD built the async APIs, I think that we should be considering their definition the primary one. AMD has been pushing for these features to be included in mainstream APIs for years, which is why AMD cards from 2012 are seeing gains under Vulkan and DX12. This is how long AMD has been building async hardware.

Do you think they started developing Mantle just for fun? It was because Microsoft wouldn't get off their asses to build a new API. Once the API was done, AMD gave it away for anyone to use, as that is in their best interest.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mantle_(API)
>Asynchronous DMA queue for data uploads independent from the graphics engine

Asynchronous compute is EXPLICITY NOT the same as context switching.

I'm refunding my timespy upgrade. Sure it was only $5, but its the principle of the matter. If they are using context switching and calling it async it's a lie. Futuremark is going to be in a fair bit of trouble if people can prove that they created a biased benchmark for dx12.

AMD is banking on the longrun. The reason why the dumbasses showcased two RX480s against a 1080 was just to demonstrate the possibility of multiple GPU setups when proper APIs make good use of them. Having multiple smaller chips is better for all of us since they're cheaper to us and yield much more for the manufacturers, there's also Moore's law not being shit on smaller chips.

But anon, literally the only reason for that is that the cost doesn't justify the gains for typical desktop usage. There's effectively 0 return beyond quad core for desktops and you can reach that on a single chip easily.

Still too arse blasted to add 295x2 and raedon pro duos in game benchmarks that favor crossfire/sli

PCI-e keep inside properly the 75 watts
Drivers are too slow to come out
Can't get high clocks
-can't move on from 1 fetch and 1 decode GPU -hardware codex GPU and CPU side (doesn't realize this is the bottleneck on the cpu and gpu because of this one issue that held back bulldozer in the first place)
-too slow to get up to nvidia
-Wait is all they ever say.
-Vega is not even in existance
-the 295x2 and raedon pro duo still never get mentioned because software crossfire is STILL not embedded at driver level. (for fucks sake man do it you lazy ass)


all of this AYYYYYYYYYYY LMAO is too much for me.

This generation is over hyped I'm gutted the 1080 can't get over 30FPS on 4k

>Can't get high clocks

You do realise how Nvidia does this and AMD doesn't right? A big one (while there are many other reasons) is Nvidia uses different clockspeeds internally for different parts of the chip. The clockspeed they tell people a card runs at (and what software reports) is only the shaders.

AMD uses a single clockspeed for everything so overclocking GCN bumps everything up to whatever value you set, which is why 1) power draw goes up so much and 2) you see much closer to linear scaling with GCN compared to maxwell and pascal. Equally this means you don't need absurdly high shader clocks because you are getting everything running faster, rather than just the shaders which now is creating internal bottlenecks (more so than any particular design has) depending on the workload.

This does mean - to a certain extent - you can throw any workload you like at GCN and adjust clocks as you need to get performance. Maxwell and pascal won't respond like that for anything that doesn't really touch the shaders.
>>
Nvidia are just holding back on async (and holding back developers from using it) so when the next generation comes out they can obsolete all their previous cards and force "I only use nvidia cards" retards to buy new async enabled nvidia cards.

Hopefully AMD wins market share and people don't feel the need to fork out another $600 on the latest highend (but really midend after the ti comes out) gpu.

Then the Chinese steve jobs commits suicide and we all live happily ever after. The end.

When the Voodoo 2 came out I got a Trident 4MB 9750 AGP
When the Voodoo 3 came out I got a Voodoo 2.
When the Voodoo 5 came out, I got a Voodoo 3
When the Geforce 2 came out I got a TNT 2
When the Geforce 3 Ti500 came out I got a GeForce 2 MX 64MB.
When the Geforce 4Ti 4600 came out I got a Geforce 3 Ti200
When the Geforce fx5200 came out I got a Geforce Ti4200.
When the Geforce 6800 came out I got an ATi Radeon 9800.
When the Geforce 7800 came out, I got a 6800

When the Geforce 8800 GTX came out I got a Geforce 7800

When the Geforce 9800 came out I got an 8800

When the Geforce GTX 260 came out I got an ATi Radeon

When the GTX 480 came out, I got a Radeon 5870.

When the GTX 580 came out, I got a 480
When the 680 came out, I got the 570
When the 780 came out I got a 670.
When the 980 came out I got a 770
When the 1080 came out, I got a 970.

This is retarded. Some of those aren't even a generation difference.

Also:

>When the GTX 480 came out, I got a Radeon 5870.
>When the GTX 580 came out, I got a 480
>When the 680 came out, I got the 570

For what purpose? 5870 was within 10-15% of the 480 at worse. GTX 570 used the same chip the 480 did but at slightly lower power.

I said I did this for most of my cards. Key word being most.

The 5870 was cheaper for me at the time.

When the 580 came out, on the recommendation of the tripfag Dutchricer, I got a 480 as they were greatly reduced in price.

After a while, the 480 started artefacting and I got the 570.

was there something special about the 5200? i got one in my first pc from my dad but i read a lot of people had that card. wasnt it absolut garbage tier as the number indicates?

I get the feeling that with async compute no one really knows how much of a performance benefit we should see in real world scenarios but everyone feels that AMD should be doing better because of their better/real implementation of async compute at the hardware level.
The result is chasing after phantoms.

It had really poor DX9 performance. This was a big deal as the FX series was touted as the definitive DX9 range.

barely better, and at a hugely inflated price

Marketing.

>>55603553
>10% better performance
>30% cheaper price in EUROPE

go fuck off USA

Youre looking at a minimum of 3x CPU single thread performance and GPUs, using todays hardware, with more then four times the ALU count and triple the frequency. You wont see whatever "life like" means to you for ten to fifteen years.

So Nvidia jacked up the price of the 1080 by $100, called it a "founder's edition" and purposefully under-produced them so they'd sell out faster and make it seem like there was a huge demand for them.

Now that the non-reference designs are appearing they are pretty much the same price, if not more. Why is this "give us $100 as a pre-order bonus" thing still happening for the non-"founder's" cards?

How are you even alive in 2016?
Is this your first time purchasing new consumer electronics?

Stop being wasteful man.

mfw founders editions are actually the cheapest GPUs u can get in Germany.
Any aftermarket card costs at least 60€ more
