Handful? DX12 & Vulkan are the current APIs, why would you advise anyone to purchase legacy hardware? Pascal doesnt even have proper DX12 support, it is a DX11 arch which supports SOME features of DX12. Why don't you try asking someone from Toms what's in the Nvidia reviewers guide and what...

Nvidia pays review sites off and have the worst reviewers guide (biased games and settings). Just look at Doom Vulkan benchmarks for how Pascal will look compared to Polaris in a year or so

BF1 will support DX12, 480 is the more intelligent choice ;) 1060 (and remember the 3gb & 6gb are in fact different cards) will be a legacy product in 6-12 months with no driver optimisations (Kepler DX12 drivers? Maxwell async drivers?).

@bit_user I agree that VR is going to be massive, the experience is incredibly immersive even with the solutions that use a smartphone. There are a lot of people still using 2500k's on outdated platforms, Zen is going to be very attractive to them (platform features aside the extra 4 cores / 12...

@InvalidError Efficiency is more of a concern for the server market and Nvidia cards aren't really that much more efficient anyway - their drivers are generally aware of power virus's, reviewers have to abide by strict review "guides", and, Maxwell / Pascal are gaming orientated cards (accounts...

@KEWLX25 Really? xD Maxwell async drivers? Bumpgate? Fermi Dx12 drivers? Woodscrews? Overstating efficiency of cards? 970 specs? What about their reviewers "guide"? Paying off system builders to drop / slate AMD (Tier 0 programme)? Gameworks (failworks, even destroys performance for their own...
