Man AF has been practically free on PC for so long I can't remember. I always thought it was funny how consoles struggled with it since I've been running at least 8x since I had a 6600GT.

It was massive in some situations with ATi, a reason for why they sucked at AA benchmarks.

And looking at that new video of fury vs. titan, greggy seems to have redeemed himself.

Amazing reaction from HardOcp,'too much work' excuse, hahaha what a joke coming from folks who work too much in order to get the highest game possible IQs.

I can see how some people might enjoy making a living testing and reviewing GPUs, but the entitlement, seconding guessing, insinuations, and accusations about laziness by the readers would make me quit the profession real quick. (And that's not even taking pay into account, which is probably not all that great either.)

Pure perversion.

Slideshow.
These cards cannot handle properly a single 4k display, they test it with three (3) ! ?


* I understand that the reviewers might be heavily competition-biased in order to put on the same graph as many SLis as they liked and none Crossfires.

Interesting how BF4 is playable @ 11,520x2160 on a single 980Ti. Never dips below 30fps.

Yes, and if you put the settings to LOW, it might actually get to steady pleasant gaming experience with 60 fps at 3x 4K.

Apparently entitlement these days is asking someone to do what they claim to do.

Anyway, that hardocp thread had another screenshot of lower quality on nvidia hardware, but not AF this time,

Spoiler

Oh greggy, what've you done?!

Yes, some people look at reviewers like they're some kind of over-enlightened beings who cannot be subject to criticism.

- HardOCP: "We use the default values for quality sliders in nVidia and AMD drivers, and make no mention of the disparity in IQ that it causes"
- Public A: "Isn't that kind of unfair? Why didn't you mention this earlier"
- Public B: "Hey Public A, stop being entitled brats! You're lucky enough that the website feeds from your clicks shows the reviews for free".

I dont know, look at the titanX score, i will have think that the minfps will be close or maybe even faster of the 980Ti at this resolution.. as it is the case on all other games shown.

did we expect any better from them ? Don't you remember when the FX line came out ? They bent over backwards to try and please NVidia with positive reviews and then when the FX was old news they hid all those original articles.

The average framerate was 44 fps. That's plenty playable. Although you are someone who claimed a 980Ti wasn't good enough for pushing 1/3 of those pixels so I don't know why I bother.

Better get your card out of this thread.

It's hard not to compare the FuryX to the 980Ti when that is it's competitor. I'd say it will be quite difficult to get it out of the thread.

It's very impressive. I have no idea what medium settings means in BF4.

The difference in minimum frame rate of 980Ti versus Titan X appears to indicate the testing method is lacking though

Comparing those numbers against the Crossfire Fury X review (where the settings are the same but for a single 8MP monitor) seems to show that Fury X is scaling a lot worse when asked to render 3x the pixels for 11,520x2160.

Driver defaults settings, not in game settings

I think more evidence posted around the web in these various threads is pointing towards driver defaults being fine for a comparison, as far as IQ, and therefore performance, goes. There hasn't been a regression.

@Razor1 said:

yeah looks like the guy that did it the videos wasn't setting stuff at default in the drivers, might have forgotten or something.

@wiak said:

it would been useful to see a benchmark of texture filtering in nvidia/amd drivers and see how they compared to standard settings on the titan x, 980ti and fury x

is there even a difference on top end cards in latest dx11 games?
i havnt seen a review that did a compare like in the old days of AA/AF

i miss the old times of reviews, when they compare AF/AA, filtering and everything. now they just do perf/power and not much more

@wiak said:

anyhow, back to playing on cards

Seems nobody can replicate Gregster's problem. NVidia default texture filtering looks fine in BF4 for everyone that's tried to replicate the issue.
