AMD Beats NVIDIA's Performance in the Battlefield V Closed Alpha
A report via PCGamesN points to some... interesting performance positioning when it comes to NVIDIA and AMD offerings. Battlefield V is being developed by DICE in collaboration with NVIDIA, but it seems there's some sand in the gears of performance improvements as of now. I say this because according to the report, AMD's RX 580 8 GB graphics card (the only red GPU to be tested) bests NVIDIA's GTX 1060 6GB... by quite a considerable margin at that.
The performance difference across both 1080p and 1440p scenarios (with Ultra settings) ranges in the 30% mark, and as has been usually the case, AMD's offerings are bettering NVIDIA's when a change of render - to DX12 - is made - AMD's cards teeter between consistency or worsening performance under DX 12, but NVIDIA's GTX 1060 consistently delivers worse performance levels. Perhaps we're witnessing some bits of AMD's old collaboration efforts with DICE? Still, It's too early to cry wolf right now - performance will only likely improve between now and the October 19th release date.

you're complaining about frostpunk in a thread where closed alpha performance of a game that is launching in 4 months is suddenly important :laugh:
btw how are you liking the game ? I was going to get it on launch but I'm completely occupied with division and battlefront 2.
I’ve no reference points against any published benches just my own experience and the FPS counter.
btw I follow a few gaming youtube channels and I've seen people getting +100 fps @1440 ultra on their 1080Ti's, I knew the 30-32 fps on 1060 must have been fake.
I suggest two things: either close this thread, or rename it "BF5 unplayable on AMD hardware, fine on nvidia". :laugh:
lol did you watch the video ?
and did you see my post saying that it's going to be the same thing as bf1, +5% for nvidia on dx11, +5% for amd on dx12.
apparently you did neither of them.
Pcgh uploaded the video, hardwareluxx posted their results too.
If that is the victory some people want, let them have it... i can see why it's a closed alpha! Looking at the vid the 580 gets a higher FPS, enjoy!
Edit: checked current pricing
btw Sapphire are amazing, wish they made coolers for nvidia too. my 290 trixx was whisper quiet despite the power draw.
