Agreed, except for two titles: Warhamner is tested with the internal benchmark which gives the inverse picture of the actual gameplay from the game. And Ashes, no one really plays it or cares about it, there are more people playing the several years old Red Alert 3 than people playing Ashes. But I can understand it's relevance as one of the few titles with proper DX12 support.certainly everyone of thoses titles are somewhat valid.
need to say thatt i have not read the review in details, but the last graphic posted by TottenTranz is somewhat a bit depressive... you have nearly a half cut .. meaning if you choose games for review on the up part or the down part, you end with completely invert result. And for gamers, certainly everyone of thoses titles are somewhat valid.
I wonder if there's an article comparing overclocked results? Since the 1060 has alot more headroom than the 580, I think it would make for a good competition.
The ones I've seen only benchmark a subset of games from the rest of the review for overclocked results. A review with a plethora of games like this but overclocked would be nice.Almost every graphics card review tests overclocking.
I can't speak for anyone else but I was planning to back when I was considering the 480/1060. Basically to ensure 60fps at 1080p since i don't have a gsync/freesync monitor.What's the percentage of people who overclock mid-end graphics cards?

It might depend on the combination of tenses being used.http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=16way-gpu-aug17&num=1
I thought AMD's drivers had terrible performance in Linux compared to nvidia, as so often people claim.
Specific claims of what?It may help to cite specific claims and their dates to know whether they were off-base at the time.
Specific claims of what?
Claims of Nvidia cards traditionally punching above their AMD counterparts in Linux, particularly in the closed-sourced drivers?
And with dates?
I thought AMD's drivers had terrible performance in Linux compared to nvidia, as so often people claim.
NVIDIA is winning in Team Fortress 2, Dawn Of War 3, Dota 2 (Vulkan & OpenGL), and Metro Last Light.In fact, the only game they tested where AMD loses soundly is.. DOTA2..?
Indeed. In fact, just a month ago, NVIDIA was well ahead in all Vulkan titles on Linux:It would be fair to remind people who may have stopped paying attention that AMD has made progress, but the claims that Nvidia traditionally did better are not without foundation.
Generally speaking NVIDIA was much faster in both the OGL path and Vulkan, it's lead in Vulkan extended anywhere from 20% to 57% depending on the title. NVIDIA's OpenGL and Vulkan CPU overhead was smaller, and the GTX 1060 was able to extract more performance out of the Celeron CPU in both Vulkan and OpenGL than RX 580
And that's exactly the uphill battle AMD has to fight: Old(er) results left a lot to be desired and the tests' results are stuck in peoples heads now. Proves that, with peoples mentalities as a constant, you need to deliver from day 1.In fact, just a month ago, NVIDIA was well ahead in all Vulkan titles on Linux:
