Quoting: KimyrielleWould be awesome to see AMD becoming a real alternative to NVidia again. I certainly like their way to handle the community better than NVidia's...

Not until they release a 1080ti competitor under 300tdp. I mention the TDP because its quite important for ITX and temperature control, preferably with 7nm we should get significantly lower power demand and a 1080ti competitor.

A 1080TI has become the baseline for VR gaming AND 4k gaming, I'm in allot of pain with my FuryX but just don't have 1k laying around to spend on a Ti atm :(

I think TekSyndicate now sell the device without any software and just point to links on their forum on howto install it. Yeah they stuffed up by installing it for people who bought the device first time around, not sure if they mentioned that stuff up or not (on YT).

Maybe their waiting for Kernel 4.16 or something. When it comes to AMD hardware, anyone running anything other then 4.15+ is going to bleed tears unless they have a beast of a videocard to compensate for the huge losses.

I'm not too salty about a delay, even if its 6months. At least they know there is a issue and aren't just pushing a product out the door to cash in on the clueless plebs who buy in without fully researching it (many do this).

MS has paid allot of money into developers to do DX12, that is why it often gets support first.

The developer needs to put on the breaks for a month and focus on releasing a Vulkan update. I suspect most the staff are content producers and not graphics api programmers which is why it hasn't happened yet.

Quoting: ShmerlRadv performance is good, but it can be improved still.

I wouldn't say this, currently RADV performs around %20 slower then OPENGL in most examples, far from good.

I think things will get REAL interesting once the DX11-Vulkan project starts to function for games. Hopefully RADV driver for AMD can make some improvements before then because atm only NVIDIA's vulkan drivers offer superior performance.

I have X Rebirth on GOG, but waiting for a upgrade package to get the DLC.

The issue with the game is, 1 cockpit control ship for entire game, 1 narrative support (boring and annoying fast), and they brought in this stupid space highway system.

The X franchise needs to invest in OPEN space and just let the players go where ever the f**k they want to without this fixed transit lane crap! its cheap, unrealistic, and annoying. Computers have been 64bit for some time, you can make space infinite basically now! space as a level loading highway forcing game style imo is rather annoying unless its trying to do the FTL thing.

PUBG could make it to Linux someday, but GTAV is a no no, pretty sure rockstar are quite anti linux.
