DirectX 12 API is out with abundant exciting features that are going to take gaming, applications usage and viewing to a next level. This graphic card can pair with cards of varying performance, different generations and different manufacturers as well.

Only "Stardock" has been able to take the challenging task of developing its game for this new technology. No doubt this game deserves to be the poster boy for DX12. "Ashes of Singularity," the real-time strategy game have been successfully been able to take advantage of this confluence of Nvidia and AMD card. This confluence is being termed as SLIFire for simplicity. This not only increases performance but also improves the viewing, thereby improving the total user experience.

The benchmarking done by Techspot confirms the boost of up to 70 percent and also confirms that Nvidia card and AMD work well above fine, and work in sync with each other. Maximum PC also confirms to the test reports, and this development is seen as another impossible attained in the technology of the gaming world. Interestingly, task was not as simple as it seems and it could have been a make or break game for the Stardock, as if the vice versa would have happened, the performance could have actually gone down. Thanks to its developer teams untiring efforts.

The Explicit Multi GPU, as explained by Chris Roberts, runs on the task based approach. Nitrous engine works on the priority basis and works on more important tasks at first rather than wasting time on tasks that can be done at a later stage. This reduces burden on the CPU and also makes it run more efficiently. Also, the clubbing of 4GB and 4GB memories of Nvidia and AMD provides additional memory to the processor for graphics memory.

Definitely this new development is to provide a paradigm shift in the gaming and technology industry, and it would be interesting to see how other developers make use of this technology to provide an upgrade in the gaming industry.
