Looks like Wine is on the DX11 home run now for support. Finally. Ironically we will probably see allot of games switch to Vulkan over the next year (including Bethesda ones) so VK will be used more under Wine for sure, lets hope DRM doesn't cockblock it however.

He clearly needs support as he can't even afford light-bulbs. Unfortunately I just spent $7k on a couple of kick-starter projects so that's it for KS2017, for me.

For people with allot of disposable income is my guess. That isn't me for sure, and probably never given how things have been going :(

But with the sale of old PC parts and stuff, I think I can manage a Ryzan 1600x + Rx Vega build in the future....I think 8k screens would need at least a 20tflop card for decent gaming performance, I'd be happy with a 4k OLED screen if those ever go down to decent price ranges...

I'd say Feral has been working on a Vulkan wrapper pretty well, otherwise we would have seen this on Windows already (normally such a thing comes out first).

I thought it ran pretty decent at 4k on my 980ti before, so this will be awesome. But honestly the game that needs Vulkan the most atm is Deus Ex, I have been holding out buying that until news of better performance hits! heres hoping..

I'm using Win7 atm but will likely move to win10 once I setup my ryzen rig later in the year because MS are pulling a non-support policy for older OS with Ryzen (somehow). I thought AMD and vendors would maintain driver support?

Windows 10 Malware/Spyware edition, that is what MS wants everyone on, they will likely just keep paying big money into developers to get them to support DX12 because I don't see a SANE developer choose DX12 over Vulkan unless there are considerable money issues in doing so.

Also Star Citizen is doing ok, its almost 5yrs in development now and has had several builds out (v0.262 atm I think) and once V3 is released next month? people will get a chance to test out much more of what it has to offer. So to all those people saying its a complete flop, why not actually TRY the alphas out (inc v3 next month) before forming an opinion?

Quoting: AimelaJust look at G-Sync,

To be fare the new Freesync2 is closed loop just like g-sync also. I don't know if AMD will be able to sell freesync2 with the way they intend to do it (exclusive product selection among other things).
