This sounds interesting.
Even if the gains are not to much i do like to see this explored, i welcome every gain possible.
I hope it's not to much extra work.

DXVK Developer Working On New "AGS" Experiment For Possible Performance Benefit

Well I don't think crossfire or SLI is a common choice for most of us. So this new proj won't help us a lot. But it's still exciting to see another great feature deployed under linux.

I expect some sort of DX12/Vulkan any-GPU setup for us eventually, maybe...

The developer commented on this over on Reddit to clear up any confusion/expectations:
Sigh. Since people (especially over at Phoronix) are already expecting way too much: - No, this does not and will notsupport Crossfire. - No, not every game shipping an amd_ags_x64.dll actually use the supported extensions. Many games just use it for HDR setup, driver version info, and the aforementioned Crossfire. - No, this won't magically make your Nvidia card run 200% faster. Might work on non-AMD hardware by accident, but it wasn't tested. - No, the performance gains are not significant.

Anything that gets Linux as fast or faster than Windows is what we need.

Edit: I wouldn't hope for any CrossFire work here, but Multi Draw Indirect should give good performance boost for games that use it properly.Last edited by leonmaxx; 06 May 2019, 09:25 AM.

And here we have yet another benefit from using hardware made by company that supports open source software.
Oh...cool...just checked and I actually have a game that contains the amd_ads_x64.dll -- Hitman 2....what sucks is I've yet to build a custom Proton that will run Hitman 2...it works damn well with Steam's 4.2 Proton. I'm sure y'all can guess at least one of the items on my agenda today.
EDIT: Tried Hitman 2 with ads built from all three versions and I didn't have any luck getting it to run.Last edited by skeevy420; 06 May 2019, 10:29 AM.
