So it is unoptimized for nVidia and a feature which needs to be disabled for a fair test. :thumbsup:

The difference here is FXAA looks like crap and with TAA enabled the game is still totally playable (on both cards). This isn't a gimpworks feature where performance is destroyed for little or no benefit.

This test showed up a couple of days ago but I didn't want to post it to not generate traffic for them.

It shows exactly opposite to what the rest of the world shows. Even in the most biased amd games they still have nvidia wining. Hitman, the Division...

Shame you guys can't understand the conclusion they are making. [H] level of ridiculousness and beyond.

Always read "terms and conditions" pclab actually plays the game
Testy przeprowadziliśmy podczas przejazdu jedną z ruchliwych ulic w widoku zza samochodu.

Tests conducted during the passage of one of the busiest streets in the view behind the car.
While the others are just driving along behind a very small group of cars

Als Szene nutzen wir bewusst keine freie Fahrt, sondern den Einzelspielermodus ohne störende Server-Trolle und ein normales Sprint-Rennen, bei dem wir möglichst nah hinter dem Feld herfahren, damit eine optimale Grafiklast entsteht.

As scene we consciously use no free ride, but the single-player mode without disturbing Server trolls and a normal sprint race, in which we herfahren as close as possible behind the field, so that optimum load graphics created.

I'm not saying which way is more telling for someone who is trying to determine how the game will run for him...but it's the first way.

hmm, they show at 1080p this to be the least surprising title of 2016:

Everything is in the order we expect at the end of 2015.

980 ti>Fury x>Nano>980>290x>780 ti>970>290>380x>290x

Not a lot of surprises there.

Taking it further, it shows the intent of anyone posting their reviews. :sneaky:

So my i3 6100/overclocked gtx960 4gb should give a minimum of 50fps @ 1080p @ ultra settings?
I'm happy, I like racing games.

Don't forget that other constant of 2015, Crossfire not working on day one.

Hopefully AMD gets a Duo Pro system into every developer's hands larger than a few dudes in a garage.

What?

I bought a new-in-box 2600k for $180 last year. You know, the chip fourth from the top?

Most new 2500ks if you can get them shouldn't be more than $150.

you can get them around $150 used on ebay, but new.....

http://www.amazon.com/Intel-i5-2500K-Quad-Core-Processor-Cache/dp/B004EBUXHQ

And yours, $199 used to start, and $445 new....

http://www.amazon.com/Intel-i7-2600K-Quad-Core-Processor-Cache/dp/B004FA8NOQ

Im sure both can be had cheaper, elsewhere, but Im just using these places as a start for Im to lazy right now to go deep digging....

Both 2500K/2600K and FX8350/9370 are far better than any Core i3 even Skylake. The only thing that Core i3 Skylake has an advantage is the platform.

I feel bad for anyone who bought a 770 over the 7970/280x. Just funny how much the 770 has fallen on its face.

I warned people....
So many people did.

Even in this biased review site the 390 ties the 970 at my 1440p resolution.... lol.

Translation: tested at an area that shows NV in the best light.
Well, if you go there then, the other sites tested a online only game in off line mode just to make amd look better...

No matter how one looks at it,different testing methods will produce different results,everybody should read up on what exactly is being benchmarked before drawing conclusions.
