I am seeing a performance increase in Shadow Of The Tomb Raider of approximately 3-4 extra fps on a 3070, indicative that the resize bar smart access stuff is working. Which is about the same gain I saw on a RX 6800XT, had to send it back 'bellied up )-: and by that time its price went through the roof even higher' but am now with a 3070.
Dishonored 2 went from playable to extremely playable with this driver, that being said, even the RX 6800 XT had some serious issues with that game across several cards in the 6000's series by multiple different owners. Dishonored 2 is also in my opinion one of those games that will really test the strength of a GPU aside from the opinion of mine that to date is one of the best games ever made.
Perhaps I ended up with a card that is better suited for my gaming needs, $1,400 was honestly pretty steep, don't know why the 6800XT failed. $1,000 for a 3070 in the current market is pretty fair.
I think it is likely that we will see both Nvidia and AMD to have pretty decent performance increases with this newer generation set of cards with SAM. Both most likely will see lots of things fixed.Last edited by creative; 14 October 2021, 10:53 AM.

I was hoping for the changelog to be a bit longer.

What are you comparing it to that suggests Wayland is holding itself back?
