Since Nvidia essentially stated something and proved it I am hoping AMD does the same. We need good competition.

You mean that "twice the performance of the TitanX" that was repeated multiple times but sneakily that was only for VR that nobody cares about?
Yeah good stuff.

After a works night out I can still say, being Scottish and totally drunk, VR matters, considering its what AMD sell Radeon Duo Pro on... Not so?

VR matters but those performance numbers where estimated with VR+SMP. SMP being the key since it will be doing less work. The VR application would have to be developed for SMP in mind and even Nvidia doesn't have one that uses SMP to demo.

How did they get to that number. Tom Petersen explained adding the estimated 1.7x gaming performance to the expected SMP gains of 1.0x in combination they get VR (SMP) + Gaming = Relative VR Gaming Performance



Its not even a VR gaming to VR gaming comparison its a gaming to performance plus expected SMP gains.

It's all about the TAM baby, strap that expensive VR headset to your cheap graphics card... it's what the world wants apparently.

VR matters down the line sure, not now, not for this gen or the next, only a few are opting in and in that recent poll on this very website almost nobody voted for it as anything they care about, 6% of the votes.

And thats still not the point, they did not say "twice the performance of a Titan X in VR", why? because that does not sell nearly as good as the claim it actually would do twice the performance of the Titan X.
Is it silly for people to even slightly believe it would be twice the performance of the TitanX? sure, I was skeptical from the start, does not change the fact that we are effectively being lied to.

And lastly, its in response to the claim Nvidia does what it promises, yeah if you take in the hidden small print, gotta read that right?

Radeon Pro Duo only made sense to DEVELOPERS, guys.
What VR games are out there? Right.
But Devs need "something" to develop.

...expensive VR headset...
Doesn't have to be expensive.
E.g., Sony's Morpheus is 399$.
Samsung's phones can double as VR with some 100$-ish piece of hardware.

Anyhow, 900$ for VR (say, Oculus, I actually tried OR 1, the worst part was resolution) + GPU is way more accessible than 1300$.

720p Monitor you can get for 100$. but if you want 4K 70 INCH CURVED, you should pay more.

Welcome to reality.

Well, what I saw was 1080p (and subjectively left 640/480-ish or lower impression).
There ain't anything going MUCH higher than that on the market (e.g. 4k in your example), LG and OR are only slightly above that.

Anyhow, not even remotely 720p vs 4k difference that you brought as an example, more like, possibly, 1440p vs 4k.
