GTA5 could support AMD's Mantle, akin to its console roots.

http://hexus.net/tech/news/graphics/72029-amd-mantle-support-coming-gta-v-cod-aw-says-report/

Aside from subbing Intel, AMD is looking to get some the biggest "Next Gen" titles coming this year and next onto the Mantle train. Its time Nivida stood up to the plate.

Time to join the glorious PC master race console peasants!

pc master spreadsheet race got themself a game finally

the wait has been long

I don't see any spreadsheet in here

If by "a game" you mean more games than any single console, than yes we do, all the time in fact.

Hmmmmm.... ?

pc has the most games at both gs and mc each gen

when was the last time pc received a goty ? lol

95% of your games suck!! and that 5% left is CSGO

you need console ports to keep up

@Lulu_Lulu: Mantle is amd's version of direct X. I use it on BF4 since I'm primarily an AMD user and it does improve the frames quite a bit.

Still think direct X 12 will outperform it. But, that'll be around next year.

when was the last time a good game won a GOTY?

It's best to ignore him. He tends to go away after a while.

So much jelly in this post.

Isn't this just a rumour? If it's true, then it further proves that this GTA won't be a shit port this time.

After Max Payne 3, it'll probably be a good port.

I'm just happy that the video editor is back for the PC version. It makes creating videos so much easier

I hope Nvidia support isn't bad.

When was the last time a 'GAME' won a GOTY?

Now thats the good question

Do you mean a PC game? because GOTY awards are given to games not platforms.

And it was rather recently

There are people that still say it's going to be a shoddy port because GTA IV. They offer arguments that Max Payne 3 was a different case as it wasn't an open-world game.

Aren't all future cryengine/frostbyte/unreal engine 4 games going to support Mantle by default as well?

LMAO

Avoided his point completely,good job.

When did I say Crysis 2/3 are good games? As a matter of fact I hate them exactly for abandoning their roots. The only Crytek games I like are Far Cry and original Crysis. Do you know I actually love TPS more than FPS but what should I do if I don't like Uncharted series? Just pretend that I love them?

I can't play on consoles, I hate controller. Not because I hate a piece of plastic but I just can't play games with a controller, sucks at it. I play every game with KB/M even hack n slash. I even played DMC 3 on my PC with KB/M. The controls are so much smooth with KB/M.

So superior yes....

Jank is a fake. He's actually one of you.

Look at these jelly consolites lol.They hating the fact that GTA 5 is coming to pc...

This is SW kill or be killed. I am very nice outside of here.

Doesn't make you any less of a fake hermit.

really? because you seem like an all around terrible person

He's never posted his specs and always avoids it when pressed for it.

Well, when the games were 2D I did play consoles and the arcades. Sidescrollers are the only genre I can play with a controller, for the rest I rely on KB/M.

Release it already!

@Jankarcop: @clyde46: fakeboy confirmed

Seems like you are butt-hurt and should go to general chat for taking the internet too seriously.

Lets see some system specs and pics faker.

I am simply a beacon of factual information.

if this offends anyone please take it up with the moderators. Until then I will rape and win.

well we all know how much you like rape...

Dafuq is "general chat"?

lol nvidia sucks

why?

Those games I mentioned are 8.0 and above scoring. PC doesn't need console "ports" (which are better on PC, 99% of the time) to keep up.

I can source all of that btw.

lol, my cat does the same thing when she's going after birds. Little thing doesn't realize she isn't gonna catch shit if she keeps shaking her ass like crazy before she pounces.

As for the GTA Mantle thing, it's a pretty clear sign that it's gonna be a very good port. GTA4's biggest problem, from what I've heard, is its poor CPU utilization. With Mantle, CPU bottlenecks will all but disappear.

@lostrib I personally don't think Nvidia sucks, but there are some things I've noticed are better on the AMD side--color balance being one. With the default driver settings you get from both companies, games on Nvidia GPUs look far more washed out. This is something that can be changed though, but you have to do it manually, whereas AMD's default settings give a nice color balance. Secondly, at least from my experience, my AMD GPU has had far less driver issues outside of games--Nvidia seems to release drivers without enough adequate testing, which results in numerous display driver crashes.

can you source actually owning a PC better than consoles?
