    not useless if you're trying to determine where the bottleneck is: CPU or GPU. Unfortunately it's hard to tell. There is a lot going on in the world all at once. I can't really differentiate what is a GPU bottleneck from a CPU bottleneck just by watching since it's not always clear why the performance is dropping.

    Lol indeed. But for the sake of science; it would have been worthwhile to get an idea of what’s going on under the hood

    That's certainly not an equivalence I would have drawn.

    Yes the guys at DF have their platform preferences (like we all do) and make no secret of it. But that's fine because the analysis they produce are well balanced and scientific.

    Putting any talk of platform bias aside (and NX has never openly expressed his personal preference as far as I'm aware) I think the issues raised here are more about the accuracy of his technical analysis and the methods used to arrive at the conclusions which are very different to the standards the DF guys adhere to.

    No, I'm simply stating whenever benchmarking practices come into question, it's usually console warriors not liking a particular outcome. Hence, my statement about DF and NXGamer being called biased regularly whenever some group/individual epenis isn't measuring up.

    In the context of computer graphics, tessellation always means subdividing an object, most usually a triangle mesh but also high order surfaces, into (more) triangles.
