    It also doesn't fully throttle up my GPU in borderless windowed. Has anyone figured out a fix for the aspect ratio in fullscreen?

    For reference, it seems you can fix it by alt-tabbing out and back in. It will revert to being "squished" if you zoom into first person, and occasionally upon zoning.

    Note that this fixes it for me, but may not work for everyone, obviously.

    That was the first thing I noticed when loading up the new engine, didn't like my 21:9 aspect ratio. Wasn't a big issue for me since I play windowed 16:10. I couldn't imagine playing AO fullscreen and having to alt-tab etc. Always doing other things even outside of looking up AO related material on the web, including playing Cities:Skylines in a window at the same time.

    I play different games fullscreen or windowed. Immersive games like Borderlands, GTAV, Alien Isolation etc I play fullscreen. RTS-types, MMOs I play windowed.

    I play everything in borderless window if possible :| sometimes it even runs better in borderless, like League of Legends is impossible to run with a stable framerate in fullscreen, dunno why, but with borderless the framerate never moves from 60 and doesn't even stress my GPU enough to bother clocking up.

    Could also be that SLI has no issues but multi-GPU without SLI does. Not a common setup though.

    Either that or I have another reason to be wary of AMD's tempting GPUs.. never had a Crossfire setup.
    Bit late as a reply Digi, I've upgraded to win-10 (skipped win8) and the new DX-12 API is pretty stunning now I've tried it to be honest, that and AMD have said they have now dropped mantle :/ , that plus the newer features cropping up in the latest premiere/media encoder etc, make staying with the intel/nvidia camp pretty compelling; kinda strange really as intel began as part of big brother AMD, and have gone on to become the "big brother" company but I'd much rather yet another company came on the scene and introduced more competition to the market.

    Remember Cyrix cpus anyone ? ..../shudder

    On Win10 as well. Having some minor issues with audio gear drivers (as expected), but it should all be 100% sorted soon. I'm on the amd fx + nvidia camp on 2 of my machines and it's flawless for what I do on them. If I ever need the horsepower that high-end Intel delivers I'll make the switch and watch my wallet go boom for a "good" cause.
    AMD's been struggling after the FX 8-core series and hasn't released anything I'd buy for a long time. I truly hope that changes in a way that provides suitable competition for the market but it's not looking great.
    Cyrix (and later VIA) CPU's could make a comeback. Motorola used to make some great stuff too, though outside of the x86 architecture spectrum.

    On the DX12 front.. I've dabbled with Unreal Engine 4's stuff and I want DX12 games to come asap. It's going to be a great time to game in.

    One can only hope.
