Quoting: sorathAt first thanks for benchmarks for AMD videocard.

Could you clarify please: FGLRX 15.20 is Catalyst 15.7? On Ubuntu Catalyst 15.3beta AFAIR also was marked as fglrx 15.20.

Could you also compare game's performance between Linux and Windows ports with the same video cards if WIndows OS is available for you?

I'm not entirely sure if the FGLRX I installed from the repositories was 15.7 but I think it was. I still don't understand the Catalyst version numbering too well.

As for the Windows comparisons, I will not run such things on my hardware. The only Windows license I had was thrown to Liam and getting a new license is too expensive. In addition to that I don't like Windows a whole lot and I don't want to put up with its quirks for the sake of booting it up maybe 4 times a year for some comparisons. Also, I would have to get a new hard drive because I'm not wasting a gigabyte of my current storage for something like Windows.

Quoting: NinoslayerPlaying very very bad :-P

Quoting: KeyrockWhy are you folks arguing over semantics? What difference does it make what term you chose to use and which one is "technically" correct?

Quoting: liamdaweI'm also going to mention that Kickstarting a game is nothing close to an investment. It's much more like a pre-order, only you're pre-ordering something that 90% of the time doesn't actually exist.

Which is the very definition of an investment.....

You are aware you can donate to a kickstarter without getting a game depending on a tier? I gave $5 to many kickstarter, which is usually not enough to get any game.

I also wanted to make a joke about Liam's 3.5GB of VRAM.

Oh man that quote alone was worth reading it. :) I love the way you write, Sammy. It's direct, to the point, well balanced and detailed without going into too much detail or digressions.

Also, these kind of tests are very valuable at this infant stage of Linux gaming, where a lot of uncertainty and myths are dangling around.

The only thing missing now is a Windows partition on the test machines, for comparisons of game performance.

Oh, and by the way, has anyone seen my $75?

Quoting: LinasWhat about the gameplay? It is worth it if it is fixed?

Quoting: BillNyeTheBlackGuyYou think it's a fad, but you never tried it? Sigh, I'm not surprised.
