I’m loving my A770. Absolutely zero issues with it and it’s handling raytracing and all with aplomb.

- smcl 4y agoI recall seeing some issues with performance on some older games - do you know if this is still the case, or did you not try it? I'm not in the market for a graphics card at the moment, but if there's another competitive company in the space when I am that would be excellent.
- ChuckNorris89 4y agoI think those massive performance issues were only restricted to games using DX9 because the architecture had no support for it in HW so what they did was use the translation layer DX9 to Vulkan for those titles and performance went up. Shouldn't be an issue anymore.
- smcl 4y agoAh yeah I remember DX9 support was mentioned. That's good to hear though
- bryanlarsen 4y agoThe latest driver claims to improve DX9 performance by 60%. Counter-Strike by 120%. Myself I don't care about old games. As long as they're "good enough", I worry about unreleased games that will force me to get a new video card before I would otherwise.
- bryanlarsen 4y agoNobody has good support for DX9 in their hardware, it's all in the drivers. And that's why the delta between Nvidia and everybody else is so much higher for DX9-DX11 than it is for DX12, Metal & Vulcan.
- helf 4y agoTbh I haven’t had a chance to game a ton yet in it but everything I’ve tried has been fine. Buuut I only have a 2K monitor and the system is also massively overkill (i9-13900k @6.4ghz, 64GB DDR5 @ 6400mhz, striped PCIe4 NVMe drives, Optane PCIe OS drive etc etc). So I’ll be hard pressed to really notice any performance issues since I upgraded from an i5-10500 with 16gb ddr4 and a Radeon Pro WX5100 8GB lol.
