About Gamersyde
Gamersyde is a commercial multiplatform web portal based in Europe, with hundreds of thousands of visitors each month from all over the world. We cover both handheld and video games platforms and the site has grown into one of the biggest gaming sites in the continent. We are able to offer fast news delivery and HD content from the upcoming games, and one of the greatest and friendliest gaming communities in the world. The HD content we provide always respects the original resolution and framerate of the games we capture, making Gamersyde the one and only place to get 1080p/4K/60fps videos with high bitrate. At a time when Youtube's subpar video compression has become the norm for most people on the Internet, we refuse to give up quality without a fight. We now also produce HDR videos, which can only be enjoyed by those who own compatible televisions. The content we produce is obviously not free of use should you want to upload our videos on your own website or YouTube channel.

Since 7578 DaysIt's poor speculation to assume a connection to the Xbox One. They partnered with EA to create this API and not Microsoft. I think Microsoft would be happy to keep everything Windows-side on DirectX. And they would likely control the software regardless. Microsoft was not mentioned one time in AMD's press conference, or in any of the corresponding media (so far as I've seen). And they've been pretty talky about wanting it on multiple operating systems. That sounds just like Microsoft! So what is Anand saying, if Microsoft aren't in cahoots with AMD? They lifted an exact copy of the API form the Xbox One? And Microsoft retains no control at all? That sounds pretty impossible. Is that possible?
I like Anandtech a lot, but this seems like fantasy. Which makes a lot of sense. A lot of the reaction to Mantle is fantasy. Like the legitimate Tech blogs who thought that they were inviting Nvidia to join the party. Fat chance.
They can brush off comparisons to GLIDE but that's exactly what it is. We've been down this road before. It ends in an abstract API called DirectX.
If it's true it's pretty amazing of Microsoft to allow it to happen. Period. Unless they're in on it. And then.. why not just come out and say it? Either way, it's a big win for AMD. No matter how you look at it. Again: the R9 is not an impressive piece of hardware. They may have just won over the entire market with a piece of proprietary software.
Which until recently they claimed to hate.
Since 7552 DaysNow on PC is a different thing, and the impact it could get wont benefit Microsoft on the PC department if this get plenty of support and it is also on Linux. This mantle thing could even create an API war between major parties, and that always come with heavy fragmentation.
SteamOS and now Mantle should have Microsoft scratching their head right now.
Since 7578 DaysWell.. except for the fanboys who are either in denial mode or thumping their chests in victory.. lol.
Since 7578 DaysI might jump ship if there's a significant performance increase in BF4, but I can't imagine purposefully downgrading my GPU's. That sounds like self-sabotage in the long run. AMD is not beating Nvidia at DirectX anytime soon. And I mean for years if we're to believe their pipelines.

Since 7696 DaysIt says that MS switched the 7770 GPU with a new one in the last six months. It's not an additional dGPU, it's a totally new GPU:
A modified R9 X280 with 3.1TF
And before everyone starts to bash, read it first. If these guys really are making this up, they deserve a medal for "best foolery in 2013"

Since 7696 DaysMade some videos today @ Gamecity Vienna from Ryse, Forza and Kinect Sports Rivals - will post after upload is finished. And I really loved that controller, the new feedback feels very impressive. The only thing that's strange at the moment is the weight. It's much less weight and I had to get used to it a bit.

Since 7578 DaysLooks like the Forza 4 versus Forza 5 comparison :D
The 280X must have boosted the quality of these titles.

PS: My videos had 1080i/50 fps but on youtube only 30 remained - bummer. And at the end I zoom-in on the One itself.
