Amd Mantle Support

[devworkxx]

Does my AMD A10-5800k SUPPORT MANTLE?
if not, will it support it in future?

It's more like vice versa... mantle will support trinity. .. it's an api like dx 11 just a language that the gpu can read easier and has less overhead compared to dx 11. Specifics aren't clear as far as true real world gains on specific apu / gpu currently because only bf 4 is the only game that will currently have it written into. But I suspect 30% increase from dx 11 with trinity.

A Trinity based, A10-5800k, uses older stream processors based on the VLIW4 design found in the HD 6900 series graphics and will not be compatible with Mantle.

Mantle is only scheduled to support stream processors based on the GCN architecture.

Your processor does not support Mantle, and will not support Mantle in the future.

The CPU part of the APU supports mantle but the GPU part doesn't so if OP wants mantle Op would have to get a GCN based AMD card

Roxas_Boy, Mantle is a graphics API and has no concern with the CPU being used, so according to your answer, all systems support Mantle, provided they want to upgrade to a GCN based graphics card.
