Dx11 vs Dx12 vs Vulkan | 1080P, 1440P and 4K Benchmarks

Hope you enjoy this video, have a good day!

Great video, thnx, learned a lot! The length function is, I think, actually quite expensive to run due to the sqrt. Can’t you compare to radius square? E.g: sqrt(x^2 + y^2) < radius to x^2 + y^2 < radius^2. Which would be x * x + y * y < r * r?

unreal engine dx11 better (pubg - insugency vs)... others.. dx12 :)

>The game has to have support for it

I guess DXVK just doesn't exist then... Some games actually run better on Linux with Proton and DXVK than on Windows

I get better performance with dx12 than vulkan

Starting a video with an add ffs 😂

Why vulkan games run so good on AMD?

i have gtx 1050 ti 4gb asus. i dont know but he d11 or d12? ha? guys?

God loves you :).

in my game:
unity avg fps (30 sec sector0)
dx12 35
dx11 30
openglCore 25 (villog)
vulkan 42

free fps basically

Shoul i download vulkan to be used or is it preinstalled with windows update or the game?

the problem with RDR2's Vulkan is that the game looks very blurry while DX12 looks very sharp, also I haven't had a 15 fps lows/minimum not even once, no DLSS, indeed Vulkan runs much better and smoother but holy fuck its blurry

r5 5600x
3070
16gb 3200mhz

Very misleading and confusing charts. Looks like intentionally because it makes 0 sense with what your saying.

Witcher 3 with DX12 is more laggy for me, I got like 15 FPS less in DX12

WIthcer 3 dx12 - mmmmm........

Vulkan is the goat, performance is insanely good and it is even spported on mobile devices!

Thank you for this test! New subscriber here! I’m looking forward to more videos😎

i assume for pascal series dx11 is better

Watching this in 2022 with Vulkan giving 4x better lows than DX12 and only now with Nvidia and the 40series are they claiming 4rx the performance. AMD is ALWAYS ahead of the curve.

so true vulkan vs dx 11.2 / 12 ..... and very enigmatic channel , cheers!

RDR2 doubles the vram usage in Vulkan than in DX12. That's insane, but the minimums are massively improved. Very interesting.

dx12 deadborn, prefer vulkan 😍

Wrong because all api´s in one game. Saints Row has DX 11, DX 12 and Vulkan, all shortcuts on Desktop! ;) i miss that dx 11 and dx 12 vs vulkan. i saw only dx 11 vs vulkan.... ^^

the only reason to fall for DX12, it's because you are a FAN a BIG BIG FAN of Micro$$$oft WIndobe 10.

No one like DX12.. compatible only with windows 10 and 11.. no Linux, No old windows OS that's still Powerfull like windows 7 wich i still use.. no reason to change for a Windump 10. Linux will be my next O.S.

Wie kann Vulkan Durchsetzen ? Ich glaube das der Vulkan umgespieben ist von mantle

Vulkan shines on support for a lot of platforms, dx11-12 is only supported in windows.

Actually there is a game supporting explicit multi-gpu
(support for two gpus from different vendors) and you even have it in your video - Ashes of singularity.
There is also a lot of benchmarks with GTX 980Ti and R9 Fury X working together in this game.

Excellent video man, insta sub! DX12 and Vulkan are pretty much required for AMD cards on emulators, due to their shi*ty driver optimization on DX11 and OpenGL.

edit: não sabia que você é de Portugal, saudações do Brasil ✌️

You can gain 20 more FPS in RDR2 if you compare it Dx12 On Windows, and Vulkan on Linux.
Because Vulkan on Linux is crazy efficient.

Hello, I have a acer laptop which has Nvidia GeForce mx150. Should I use Directx11 or Vulkan on my dota 2?

For me when I played red dead 2 on ultra and dx12, the game would either work perfect or stutter outta nowhere and won't stop stuttering. Switching to vulkan it was perfect with no stutters. I have a 3070ti and rx5600x

Does vulkan look better than direct x 11?

Oh how I hope Vulkan will become the standard API for game developers asap.

placas amd tem problema com d11, então não tem como realmente ver a diferença comparando com placas amd.

Fuck the microsoft

DX 11 is crashing my 6800 in RDR2 for some reason :/ peppe hans

Every Vulkan game I have played on my PC works way better than any other game with other API.
Doom Eternal, Rainbow Six, Red Dead Redemption, Hades...
I would say 98% of the time buttery smooth.
DX12 has been very poorly optimized most of the times and most of the time I have been dealing a lot with stuttering.
We need more Vulkan!

Screw your commercials

What about in a Nvidia+Intel's platform and next combined brands?

I'm a fan of Star Citizen, the game now works with the old DX11 with 64-bit engine there are gigantic locations, there is no uploading between locations, everything works in the background, rendering, etc. You discover places where there are big capitals, stations in orbit. There you will find out how the API DX11 does not catch up, the graphics card has smaller frames, the usability of the GPU decreases. Manufacturers of RSI - Star Citizen are working on API Vulkan, where they optimize these ailments with performance and overall the Universe will be more pleasant, I'm looking forward to it :-)

Also keep in mind that NVidia's driver needs around 18% more CPU horsepower than AMD's drivers. So, if you have a slower cpu, amd is better. On high end spu's the difference is less noticeable. This was proven in a great video by Hardware Unboxed. I think NVidia does the scheduling in software in contrast to AMD in hardware.

vulkan is steroids for amd cards lol

It would be interesting to test DX11 vs DX12 vs Vulkan on PC with weak processor and strong graphics card. Will new API eliminate the bottleneck?

I get 6.5% more FPS (214 vs 201) using DX11 rather than Vulkan in R6:Siege on 5600X + GTX 1060 3GB. Minimal FPS is better with DX11 as well. I guess its just NVIDIA GPUs don't benefit that much from Vulkan as AMD ones

Hey, how about some DX12/Vulkan vs DX11 on old RX580 and Vega56? These are hard times ( :D ) and there is still lot of us on older GPUs. I can't remember if you have some GeForce GPUs on hand, but you can throw them into the mix too.
