i hope feral will add vulkan support to dxmd

Highly unlikely.

Who's have thought a few years ago we'd be comparing the AMD open source driver vs the NVidia binary blob and seeing some good competition - WOW

It'll be interesting to see what 2017 brings especially with the launch of Vega

Maybe it's just a new hardcore mode? NoScope FTW!

it definately makes you a better player when you got a scope with no sights

i get the same problem with some of the rifles atm, but i crash hard when i zoom in, has made the game unplayable for me ;[

Michael, would you re-run the CSGO tests? It did have a hang when loading the game, but that was fixed yesterday.
The only problem now is when zooming into a few rifles, but the driver totally recovers itself.

What's with the 480 getting behind the 470 in some tests?

Why does the GTX 960 have the same framerate on both 1080p and 4K in Metro : Last Light redux? It's horribly slow behind the 760. There's probably a bug or a regression around.

Does the open source amd have more cpu overhead? I'm running an amd phenom ii (from 2008) with a 270x and it struggles to get to 60 fps in tf2. It always ran like that with different distros and updates over the years. Proprietary amd or nvidia things work much better.

If i run Xonotic benchmark first time i get 30% less fps then when i run it second time... and i actually found this is due sound card it happens only there it seems. Now i disable sound driver totaly to OS does not see it and both runs has same fps! There it goes 40% faster than first run and just 5% faster than second run when sound is enabled, etc...

He, he, this just as example as not all slowness is due to GPU driver and first run is not always good representative

amd radeonsi is getting very good
