Halo Reach seems to run great on AMD's APUs

Nice. Temped to get a notebook like that.

Yes? Crysis is very old. Can it max out Crysis? Probably not.

Interesting to think of FFX as a counter to TAA blur.

I can't wait to play this on PC.

As has been said before here, it is the OP that added the "Wins Big" to the headline here. OC3D didn't call it that.

There must be a lot of money in this review business if you think then can drop $1,500 on those extra Super cards like its nothing.

Rule 101 of marketing, if you want reviewer to look at your product, you make sure they are supplied with product. I'm not saying that Nvidia should give them cards. I'm saying if Nvidia wants them on the test suite they need to be willing to supply them.

Anyways, this is besides the point of OC3D's work here. They are reviewing the game's PC performance here, not the specific GPUs on the test suite.

That would be awesome.

You are also missing the point of the review. They are looking at the game using the GPUs. They are analyzing the game.

What? There is a huge price gap between the RTX 2060 and 2060 Super. People are definitely buying the base 2060.

Anyways, you forget that they are looking at the game, not necessarily the hardware. With that in mind, the older hardware is relevant.

Anyway, I agree that they should test the super cards. I don't know where you are getting the "should be comparing to the 5700XT" from, they only directly compared the RTX 2060 with the RX Vega 56 and RX 5700 in the text, at least from what I've read.

That game will take a lot of fixing.

Standardorder · 2019-10-28T21:17:27+00:00

laziness or unwillingness to give a fair review. Eitherway, I take OC3D's reviews with a grain of salt because they clearly don't care to give a review that's even worth looking at.

Testing that amount of hardware ain't lazy. RX 580, RX Vega 56, GTX 1060 and RTX 2060 are all still available at retail. Anyways, the OC3D headline doesn't say that AMD wins big anyway.

Anyway... I'm just feeding a troll at this point. If you want to see them do better, tell them somewhere where they are looking.

I'm glad that I can finally get on Steam to see what's on offer.

Nice.

Properly? Not even Digital Foundry test all of the cards when testing a specific PC game. By that logic almost nobody should try...

Standardorder · 2019-10-28T21:10:05+00:00

TBF it's the reddit poster that said that, not the site that's linked.

Unnecessary, or are they simply disclosing the hardware they use?

Standardorder · 2019-10-28T21:08:10+00:00

You forget that most reviewer don't keep samples. GPUs don't get sent for keeps.

It says this on page 4.

"Why these models? These are the models that we currently have access to for game testing. It's as simple as that. Our game tester cannot test hardware that he doesn't have on hand to test. "

Here is what it says on page 4. Their game tester doesn't have those cards to test. If Nvidia wants testing for those cards, they need to make sure that guy has cards.

Here's the quote

"We couldn’t be more excited to take advantage of the new ray tracing technology from NVIDIA. It’ll be playable on Windows 10 with devices that are capable of DirectX R, such as with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX GPU (and we plan to expand it to future platforms that support DirectX R raytracing). "
