The big moment has finally come as AMD finally release their much anticipated Mantle patch, and their latest drivers are on the way with Catalyst 14.1 Beta. On top of that, Battlefield 4 has officially been given its Mantle update, but you’ll need the as-yet-unreleased Beta drivers to play it, a minor delay due to some slight issues, but AMD are said to be working quickly to get everything synced up again.
The issues immediately caused subpar performance for Battlefield 4, problems with multi-GPU usage, stuttering on Crossfire setups and more. To soften the blow, AMD have shared expected performance figures and Battlefield 4 gamers with the right hardware can see anything from 2.9% to a whopping 40.9% improvement!
StarSwarm from Oxide Games promises even more impressive gains:
As soon as the driver issues are resolved, expect to see plenty of details on the real world gains the new Mantle API can offer, but if the numbers above are anything to go by, then we should be in for a real treat, especially in tasks that normally rely heavily on the CPU as Mantle is supposed to cut down on the overheads associated with DirectX.
