I'm hearing the exact opposite. A couple guys on another forum are saying they can max this game out on high end (but not top of the line) AMD cards, but are getting no luck whatsoever on the Nvidia side of things.
Idk though, I was just making a joke, whose humor is apparently as inconsistent as the performance of this game across various rigs.
Ubisoft doesn't know that the word "optimization" exists, let alone what it means.
It is painful to read reviews that a card that can run most games at 2560x1600 or similar res on all ultra at least 60+ fps, has issues running a new game at the same resolution, with marginal technology improvements.
AMD is alleging that, because it's an NVIDIA GameWorks game, that it is neutered for their cards. NVIDIA, of course, has made some counter-arguments -- like devs get source code access upon request so they can fix it for AMD if they like (even though that apparently started in April, which was probably too late in Watch Dog's dev cycle to matter). Officially, the game is supposedly more unoptimized on AMD.Quote:

And that nvidia is highly anticompetitive? It's the Microsoft of the gpu world.Quote:

I think you mean monopolistic.
When you only have one other real competitor I don't see why you wouldn't try and be competitive and molopolistic though.
Getting back on topic, I was considering selling my TITANs for one of these when I first heard rumors about it. Unfortunately, since it's a dual GPU card that performs worse than two single TITAN Blacks, and the price is worth three TITAN Blacks.... Welp... Literally no point to this card for gaming, it's a workstation card TBH.
So... how much were you wanting for one of your TITANS?
Way too Much
