Join us as we review the PowerColor Radeon RX 480 RED DEVIL, we test the model fitted with 8GB graphics memory. This dark spawn from PowerColor is a mainstream graphics card series that will allow you to play your games in both the Full HD 1080P range as well as gaming in WQHD (2560x1440) range. And all that at a rather reasonable price of 269 USD.

It does not really. It does support something similar tho. Even when comparing 12.0 features nvidia and amd have differences, asynchronous compute is not part of that feature set tho. Best support is to be had from Intel and skylake igpus.
Vulkan results are tad lower then they would be with async but it's a really nice bump already with only dx12
Nice review as always.
you are wrong. Pascal supports full DX 12.1 features including asynchronous compute.

Doom Vulkan was tested at SMAA, it's going to stay that way. Do you really think I have 48 hours per day time or something just to meet any and every settings ?
You wonder who pays my bills ... I do and work roughly 70+ hours a week to do so. I cannot remember an instance in the past ten years that Nvidia paid us anything whatsoever. You state 'be impartial', yet it seems I just stumbled into the biggest fanboy with a massive AMD BIAS.
Why I test with HBAO+ ? It's technology supported by both camps. The fact that is might work our a tiny bit less for AMD is reason to disable it ? Now that's bias. Should I go ahead and disable some AMD preferred settings as well ?
Tomb Raider will be retested once when I have the time, the new driver was released hours ago.
No, Timespy does not allow a generic score when you disable async. Spend 2 minutes and and 5 bucks to try for yourself ?
Seriously grow the hell up, don't throw around accusations like that as your message here is colored completely red by modeling settings that work out the best for AMD. Our settings and tests are balanced properly and evenly in-between both AMD and Nvidia. You might not like it, but that's how it is.
Don't say nvidia doesnt have async enabled... who cares, we want to see max performance of this card. This got me pissed off and wondering who pays your bills. Be impartial.

Was Vulkan in Doom tested with SMAA also? Because if it was... Test Doom with AA completely off or on TSSAA. And don't be so hesitant to test Vulkan. Doom may have come out with OpenGL but it is a Vulkan game and not OpenGL. Since I installed the game it was set to Vulkan and not OpenGL.
Don't say nvidia doesnt have async enabled... who cares, we want to see max performance of this card. This got me pissed off and wondering who pays your bills. Be impartial.
WHY in the world would you test Tomb raider with nvidias HBAO+ is another question. its a recipe for lower performance on AMD.
please Retest Tomb Raider with newer drivers from AMD that promise 10 percent performance increase.
Timespy, why are there only graphics score async on/off results? cant you show overall test results with async on and off?
wow... just wow
can anyone think of any other brand drawing as much lunatics as AMD
ban the mofo please
