    i like the 1080p vs 4k for AMD graphic... 1080P > R9 290X and 4k > R9 390X...

    or the R9 Fury is a crap and can't do 4k... :puke2:
    or the R9 290X can do 4k too as a R9 390X is just and OC 290X
    or AMD's player can't do 4K at all (wich i doubd despite i am green :) , red can do 4k too ).

    I'm obliged to stick two fingers up to ms. FU. This is the PC gaming support we get? DX12? Yeah, right!

    Where's the sequels? Where's Forza? Yeah, MS great at supporting PC gaming.

    Don't forget "NVMe PCIe SSD, 650W+ GOLD PSU, EATX/ATX mobo for 4K" and "SATA III SSD, 450W+ SILVER PSU, mITX/mATX for 1080P".. :D

    Does the game actually looks better than previous GoW games? It seems MS is screwing with us.

    The 290x being for 1080p and the 390X for 4K has to do with memory i guess.
    290 ussually have 4GB and the 390 have 8GB.

    Looks like 4GB won`t be enough to run this in 4K. Note the 6GB+ VRAM note.
    That would mean a Fury would also struggle with "only" 4GB.

    Might also explain why a Fury has almost the same performance on the new tombraider as the 390X. In theory the Fury should be much faster.

    Yep 390X @ 4K because 8GB Vram if they enable Async Compute.

    With my config I can play 1080p easily with textures on High(Ultra need minimum 4GB).

    Deus Ex MD will need a new powerful card.

    First of all; Microsoft exclusive titles is just greedily dividing people instead of making a valuable contribution to the world.

    Second of all: Is this the FIRST GAME of the trilogy only? Which was already the only one ported to pc (DirectX10)?

    Already having the 3 games on xbox, I certainly wont buy that... specially when I prefer the 2nd and the 3rd.

    I will also mention that I bought all the Gears of Wars for the xBox360 second hand at pawn shops or flee markets bins at around 10 or 15$ per title for paying the less possible for Microsoft products! Even my xbox was second hand!

    Now that they offering that make up of a game on Digital Format only on their Windows10's "consoleland" online store, I don't know where I'm gonna find a second hand, 'used' copy of this!?...

    FURY wont struggle on 4K with 4gb HBM! atleast the 4gb won't be the limiting factor.

    Whoever wrote the requirements didn't care much. CPU descriptions are super vague and inconsistent.

    No card can run 4K resolution and all maxed on latest games. I highly doubt the rerelease will be that much more demanding. I ran the first game on a Athlon 64 X2 and HD4670. But they might f it up and sell a piece of hyped :puke2:

    Shhhh.... R9 390X have 8GB of VRAM! Ask for everybody. :heh:

    Async computing will work here.

    This game shouldn't be very demanding as it runs at 60FPS 1080p on Xbox One (multiplayer part).

    If I own this game on Xbox do I automatically receive PC version? Not that I need it much as I'm still rocking Windows 7 :)
