with DirectX 12 is the amount of CPU overhead reduced thanks to the new API and the demonstration is shown with AMD?s FX and Intel?s Skylake processors by Computerbase. The Intel chip gets a benefit since it has better single core performance but AMD?s untapped core potential from the higher count is also gained and the results are a significant increase in performance. It?s clear that DirectX 12 is untapping the performance potential of current generation hardware for AMD. NVIDIA on the other hand delivers edge in the DirectX 12 visual departments as seen in the Fable Legends performance benchmark but their Maxwell H/W benefit is yet to be seen. Nevertheless, Hitman has proved to be a good showcase of AMD?s DirectX 12 lead and Radeon users should be really in for a treat with upcoming DX12 launches
