4K AMD/NVIDIA High-End GPU Comparison On SteamOS Linux

[darkbasic]

Are you serious when claiming that Haswell-E 1000$ CPU is the bottleneck? In that fucking single test amd cards are faster, period.

Nvidia has to update GameWorks to cripple AMD's DX12 performance first :P

Yeah, that bug they should fix as always

As an AMD user, I'm just waiting for the Vulkan results. I wish I could use DirectX 12 right now to see what my hardware can do, but the only game I play that has support for it (Ark: Survival Evolved) isn't releasing it because NVidia won't let them.

Can you change the platform to something more gaming-like? I mean 4790k @ 4.5GHz, 6600k/6700k OCed or even 4690k. I think it might be less bottlenecked with OCed i5 then with this Haswell-E 1000$ CPU...

If enough support is generated to carry out another round of tests...

Because it's totally CPU bottlenecked....

So who cares where is bottleneck (on 4K there are many), when numbers shows that it is beaten

Yeah moment of joy for AMD owners in TF2 - $240 Radeon card beat both 980Ti and Titan X

I have to say this is hilarious to watch these tests results as an owner of Asus HD 7970 DirectCU II TOP. Yet I have no need for a better GPU, and I am very happy with the 7970.

Phoronix: 4K AMD/NVIDIA High-End GPU Comparison On SteamOS Linux

Continuing on from Friday's article that was a 22-way comparison of AMD and NVIDIA graphics cards on SteamOS for Steam Linux gaming, which tested the hardware at the common TV resolution of 1080p, here are results for the higher-end Radeon and GeForce graphics cards at 4K.
