DirectX 12 and the dialectical war AMD Vs nVIDIA

[Fassou]

Interesting article from the well-known website WCCFTech.com about the improvements that DX12 brings, and the truths and lies about the mutual shaming between AMD and nVIDIA, in their ongoing war for graphic supremacy.

An interesting read, in which the following points are reviewed:

1. A statement of problem, which is the DirectX 12 hype
2. A complete overview of the technicalities that are critical to understanding “DirectX 12 Support”
3. Addressing the ASync Question: Nvidia support and AMD advantage
4. A complete list of AMD graphic cards that support DirectX12 and the extent of support.
5. A complete list of Nvidia graphic cards that support DirectX12 and the extent of support.
6. Our foray into the AotS controversy and an attempt to look at the problem in a new way.

Well, after trying to deny the biggest (again), they have already announced that nVidia will support asynchronous compute via driver… a "patch" in the pejorative sense of the word, let's say.

Reflecting a bit on this:

• AMD has been making graphics with (very) mediocre performance but implementing hardware features that won't be utilized for a few months, not to mention providing drivers that all its users have complained about.

"Hello, I'm a fictional Radeon user, I spent my money on a very hot-headed graphics card, without decent drivers and which my friends with their GTX always beat with hundreds of FPS. Is it time to get revenge?"

• NVidia has been cutting the mustard and now fears that AMD will catch up in terms of performance for future applications for which they are not prepared except for those graphics that have the 2nd generation Maxwells… and they will do it in a half-emulated way.

"Hello, I'm a fictional GTX user, I spent my money and pawned a kidney on a graphics card that has always blown away my friends' Radeons in FPS. Will I be left only to play Minesweeper?"

All for the DirectX 12 sticker.

Honestly, I think that by the time DX12 is fully implemented and they release games that use it, both manufacturers will release their respective series of graphics cards… and then we'll see who's who.
It's business as usual.

Where is the war?
If they split the pie, all to avoid coinciding in their releases, one comes out 6 months before and then the other, so the cards don't drop in price.
The thing with those shaders, well, we'll see, because it's been many times that if Dx10.1 would be incredible and it was worth nothing, then Dx11 that if one wouldn't have hardware tessellation, then we moved to Mantle and some German said up to 600%, I don't know what he smoked, the draw calls and now it seems that it's the SA's turn so until I see it I don't believe it, because it's been many times.

For my part, I wish things would change a bit and they would really compete because right now they are both making fun of us, I think they are more in cahoots than they try to appear.
