Yep, brand new API and an Early Access title. Good way to make your mind up about a card.

It's pretty impressive -- definitely shows how hardware Async can improve performance in heavy compute situations. Whether or not most games will experience that, I guess is left to be seen.

By the time any real DX12 title is released, Polaris/Pascal will probably be out and I'll be looking to upgrade. It's highly possible that Nvidia was too late into Pascal's design to remedy the hardware Async problem. That would be good news for AMD, as they could come out strong in the first iteration of DX12 products.
