Space Racist posted:Yeah, I didn't think so, but after reading some new console rumor roundups and seeing that review all around the same time, my brain just kind of went wild. I remember the original Xbox basically used off-the-shelf parts, but that bit Microsoft in the rear end financially later in the Xbox's life. It wasn't inherent to the parts being off-the-shelf, as far as I know.

Is TressFX actually going to be in Tomb Raider at launch, or did they just make a tech demo using that game?

Gart posted:Seems like NVIDIA is having enough trouble getting the game to run without corruption. NVIDIA posted:We are aware of performance and stability issues with GeForce GPUs running Tomb Raider with maximum settings. Unfortunately, NVIDIA didn’t receive final game code until this past weekend which substantially decreased stability, image quality and performance over a build we were previously provided. We are working closely with Crystal Dynamics to address and resolve all game issues as quickly as possible.

So I bought one of the cheap R9 290s with blower coolers off eBay without realizing how loud it would be. It's totally usable during a game, but it's a noticeable kind of noise when the game is quiet. So what's a good aftermarket cooler for an XFX R9 290? I tried checking Newegg but have no idea how to tell which coolers there support it without manually checking the manufacturer's site for every one. I'm not planning to overclock it or anything so I'd prefer a cooler that isn't hilariously huge.

Well DSR should be more user-friendly, at least. The one time I tried using a custom resolution I hosed up and had to switch DVI ports to get a usable display.

That sounds unintuitive but the fact is, there’s nothing stopping a DirectX 12 enabled machine from fully running VMs on these video cards. Ask your IT manager which they’d rather do? Pop in a new video card or replace the whole box.

Truga posted:To be honest, I never got why gpu drivers are the shitshow they are. If a game dev can't make a game work right, that should be their problem, not AMD/nvidia's. I'm totally for them helping devs make their games work right if they want to, but putting workarounds and dirty hacks into the driver itself is a really really good recipe for a clusterfuck of a GPU driver that's now >100megs in size.

Recently been noticing a weird issue. Every once in a while scrolling will become much less smooth in everything (Firefox 43 x64 with e10s and layers.async-pan-zoom.enabled, Chrome x64, IntelliJ). Killing Chrome's GPU process will immediately fix this until it happens again. On an R9 290 with Catalyst 15.11.1, 144Hz refresh rate. Anyone have an idea what the hell is causing this?

Or just buying off eBay. Used instead of refurbished but my ex-dogecoin-mining 290 has been working great for >1 year. Just avoid reference cooled 290s unless you don't care about noise

Some are supposed to improve performance.

You should run some monitoring programs that log to disk while you play, check if CPU/GPU looked weird if it happens again. I had a semi-similar issue when my PSU was failing.

Ozz81 posted:Some cursory Googling says the R9 290 and other 200 series cards only have HDMI 1.4. Looks like you should be good, from what I found the 1.4 revision supports 1440p up to 80Hz but higher resolutions like 2K/4K cap out around 25-35Hz

It is if you're using the definition of "1080 lines of vertical resolution progressive scan" which is what I've generally seen It definitely isn't larger than 1440p.

Marinmo posted:You're literally sourcing something saying you're wrong and somehow justifying it with that it's smaller than another resolution To be fair 2K and 4K (et al) is pretty much all marketing speak, and we would be much better off just specifying resolutions unless we're trying to sell a TV. 2. 1080p often means "1080 lines of vertical resolution progressive scan". 2K is 2048x1080, it is literally 1080p under that definition

FaustianQ posted:If you're trying to run XCOM2 right now, turn off any kind of MSAA/FXAA. Shier current implementation is dogshit and the game will run near 100% fluently on Ultra otherwise. Doing a 4590/290X @ 1440p with those settings and hitting above 60fps regularly. Also turn off vsync, which is also hot garbage.
