Speedway Posted December 17, 2011 Posted December 17, 2011 I was referring specifically to dual gpu cards that already have an interconnect between the gpus. Trying to do texture memory sharing over the pcie bus would be slooooooooooooooooooow. LoL, either way we are just pipe dreaming Just not the way CF works Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJCRO Posted December 17, 2011 Posted December 17, 2011 I honestly hope this card hold it's own with NVIDIA. If it can give 15% - 30% more performance over a 3GB 580 people are claiming. Well, hat off to you AMD. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jordan199 Posted December 17, 2011 Posted December 17, 2011 AMD hardware is awsome, AMD drivers arn't. AMD needs a more robust agile driver team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
_TheAlexO Posted December 18, 2011 Posted December 18, 2011 Hoping these cards live up to the hype. I think this year I'm gonna go all out and get the 7970 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdm_freek Posted December 18, 2011 Posted December 18, 2011 hopefully this is not another BD fiasco Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NikoDG Posted December 18, 2011 Posted December 18, 2011 Haha, well they're releasing a hot-fix that should increase Bulldozer performance, and it should also run much better with Windows 8. I'm very interested to see how Piledriver turns out with their 10 core processor in a few months. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm very interested to see how Piledriver turns out with their 10 core processor in a few months i thought the hotfix was already out and as far as i heard BD is still a waste Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NikoDG Posted December 18, 2011 Posted December 18, 2011 The hot-fix was leaked too early I heard, they're going to re-release it after a little more work, it should give a better performance boost. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WardO Posted December 18, 2011 Posted December 18, 2011 As NikoDG says, yes it was too early to be leaked. They need to improved it as much as better before they release it. Anyways, looking forward for this video card. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it is possible. AMD makes very good vfm cards & nVidia makes top end card. This is the fact & would continue like that till any breakdown.
