What a let down, I was truly hoping for something special...

The sideport does SFA.

You mean its not an alternative to AFR?

 

[BRiT]

Right. SFA is not Scissor Frame Alternative.

As mentioned above and summarized in Anand's review:

The sideport does SFA.

WoOT?

Compute shaders with limited data share that requires a lower latency link?

(Yes kill me NAW)
