NVIDIA does $5 million deal with Ubisoft
It looks like NVIDIA spend $5 million to optimize Ubisoft's Assassin's Creed 5 and Watch Dogs. In fact AMD also is rumored to have invested a similar sum in Battlefield 4, exact details about these deals are unclear but word in cyberspace indicates this to be around $5 million to $8 million.
FUD Zilla reports the following on this:
We do know that Nvidia already has some Assassin’s creed demos with 4K textures that are supposed to look amazing as Nvidia agrees with AMD thinking that future of gaming is in 4K gaming. Our industry sources now tell us that it’s just AMD spending serious bucks on the Battlefield 4 deal. It turns out that the guys behind The way it’s meant to be played and Nvidia ISV (independent software vendor) relationship have spent about $5 million on their Ubisoft deal.
It involves two games, Assassins Creed 5 and Watch Dogs and our sources tell us that AMD was looking into a similar deal with Ubisoft, but it walked away simply as they believed that spending a similar or slightly higher amount on an AAA shooter like Battlefield 4 was a better deal – plus BF4 is the first game to support AMD’s new Mantle API, so it just made more sense.

Low level access for greater marketing.
AMD is probably going to pay developers to code something for the Mantle API, so that in benchmarks AMD is going to be few frames ahead. In reality though - who gives a ****?
Everybody who owns PS4, Xbox and latest AMD video cards.
Where you got your "few frames ahead" intel?

Hmm, that explains why the BF4 Beta ran like poop on my computer. Strangely the game ran better on Ultra than it did on Medium. :-/

I also find this very dumb...put that money towards other stuff that matters...idk
Anyways im not a business pro so lol
BTW after looking at bf4 forums and playing I can see my GTX 780 is doing better than just about every AMD card lol....
Im averaging 70-100 FPS on 2560x1440 and it appears alot of amd and nvidia users are having issues. BTW game is beta but I cant help to be concerned with the overall quality of th GFX I dont member this large of a difrence from bf3 beta to launch.
In fact alot of people agree bf3 looks better than bf4 which obv shoudlnt be.
BF4 BETA doesnt have high res texture, same with BF3 BETA
and saying that your single 780 gtx getting 70-100 avg fps at 2560x1400 without saying the graphics settings is kinda useless.
