This control can enable DirectX 12 game engines to extract more performance from multiple GPUs, and use multi-GPU configurations that were not possible in DirectX 11.

DirectX 12’s explicit multi-adapter adds multi-GPU support to DirectX for the first time, giving game developers a much finer and more direct level of control over PC hardware. Developers designed their own support in games and drivers, but there were often limitations: minimal control over the hardware, restricted GPU combinations, and difficulty optimizing graphics workloads for multiple GPUs. Previous versions of DirectX did not directly support multi-GPU configurations. So this is all directly related to the GCN revision, in an overview it would look a little something like this.

AMD cards that feature level 12_ 0 support include cards as old as Radeon HD 7790, Radeon R7 260 (X), Radeon R9 285, Radeon R9 290 (X) and R9 295X2.ĪMD's Robert Hallock stated that there’s no problem with not featuring DirectX Feature Level 12_1 support since features are performance enhancing tools which are already available in 11_1 and 12_0 and most games won’t rely on utilization of 12_1. For AMD this means that their latest cards will support Feature Level 12_0 - NVIDIA’s Maxwell 2.0 architecture (900 series) have support for Feature Level 12_1. Feature Level 12_1 has the Raster Order Views, Conservative Raster and Volume Tiled Raster enabled on the API. Feature level 12_0 comes with Tiled Resources, Typed UAV Access and Bindless Textures support. The reference DirectX 12 API (Feature Level 11_0) offers performance aimed features, two other levels offer graphics quality features. For GPUs of this age there thus indeed is proper DX12 support, at the very least for the most important features. Make no mistake though, while the higher feature level is not supported, the most important ones, low API overhead and tiled resource, are supported.

The current generation GCN based GPUs don’t offer full DirectX 12 support, they are limited to Feature Level 11_1 & 12_0 while the competition with Maxwell have full Feature Level 12_1 support.

Tiled Resources – Support for massive virtual textures, enabling dynamic loading of tiles into graphics RAM for expansive game world detailsĪMD does support DirectX 12, but not completely (but neither does Nvidia with the previous-gen products).

In any scenario, gamers stand to benefit greatly from choosing AMD hardware to run their favorite DirectX 12 game.ĪMD Radeon 300 Series Graphics fully support Microsoft DirectX 12, with the following enhancements over earlier products Simply put: much more efficient hardware through smarter software! At the discretion of a game developer, this superior efficiency can be spent on higher framerates, lower latency (VR), lower power consumption, better image quality, or some calculated balance of all four. The low DX API overhead is going to work wonders in terms of CPU utilization and increased numbers of objects in a 3D scene thanks to that low overhead.

DX12 is going to be a massive improvement for PC gaming.
