This is meant for 4K, and at 4K it absolutily shows a noticable difference. It would be silly to buy even a 780 for 1080p.
P.S. That is also 1 game, and a crappy one at that. You are ignoring benchmarks where this thing stomps a 690 by over 50%: http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/AMD/R9_295_X2/17.html Or double's the 690's minimum framerate: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/radeon-r9-295x2-review-benchmark-performance,3799-11.html |
1. The review is done at 4K resolution.
2. It's not one game, that's an average
3. I don't believe framerates or minimum framerates are the best measure of what you'd want from a card. I prefer when stuttering is taken into account, such as 99th percentile frame time (but it doesn't have to be that). So, yes, I'm ignoring benches showing huge raw frame leads when those don't translate into a better experience for the buyer.
