Quoting: ShmerlWine is clearly progressing with DX11 features, but performance will be another major area developers will need to address.

I'm not sure how much of this is caused by Mesa as well.

I hope someone with Nvidia blob and recent cards will post more benchmarks.

Interesting but tesselation patch from Guillaume Charifi is possible cant aproved in main branch, staging is different thing

Because DX11 area depend of jozef kucia work, recently in wine-dev them talk about this*

*Apparently jozef kucia tesselation work appears more valid than Guillaume Charifi, however jozef kucia tesselation work dont uploaded

Without forget henri verbeet must be approved or reject patch

Respect performance traditionally dont have high priority for wine devs (staging are different) for them are is more important have function, test function (this is very important to approval patch), after this could be stay compatibility and after this appears performance

In this wine version more work related csmt are added (but in test some games and dont note changes at simple seek)

However more game begins needs xinput libraries as builtin to have input (case senran kagura: xinput1_4 and others)

Quoting: XpanderCan't wait for April statistics to see if AMD CPU share has started to rise.

i myself planning to buy one in March :)

No in begins dont change much because main buyers are FX actual users, this users are amd actual cpu market share

However when appears ryzen 6 core + ht (someplace around april to june), ryzen 4 core + ht (after june) and ryzen based apus after H2 2017 maybe stay more interesting

Another potential buyers stay in users needs heavy multitasking case blender, 3dmax, some adobe programas and others

In before cited case ryzen appears very interesting because this apps use correctly core quantity compared with gaming (in gaming is more common use higher ipc with higher frecuencies)

Without forget pc cost is more cheaper than similar solution on intel (socket 2011v3)

Quoting: GuestWorking fine here ,I just checked it.

The profile is GL Threaded Optimizations and you put in the value 0 then save that as a profile.

Then make a new rule for process ADVGame and use that profile for it.

Don't forget to save it also. Other than that don't know what else to tell you.

In last test works without create profile, only needs add this to launch parameters in steam

Quoting: GuestI made a forum post about this.

The solution is to create a profile to disable the optimizations that the driver introduces.
