AMD Mantle increases Battlefield 4 performance by 45 percent.
AMD, which is the supplier of APU (system chip) for both Xbox and PS4 One, make it strong on its main platform for the future. As early as September showed up what they hope will be the next big thing in PC gaming, namely Mantle.
Exclusively for AMD
Mantle is an AMD-exclusive technology that is restricted for AMD's R7 and R9 series of video cards. This means it will not work (yet) if you have a video card that is not part of them. Mantle aims to make the transition from console to PC and vice versa an easier process for developers.
The three game engines will support Mantle, these are; Asura engine, Frostbite 3 engine, and Nitrous Engine. Upcoming games that will utilize Mantle includes Battlefield 4, Thief, Star and Citizen Sniper Elite 3 AMD says that there are about 20 games in development right now that is optimized for Mantle.
45 percent faster with Mantle
During AMD's CES (Consumer Electronics Show) presentation, one could see Battlefield 4 run up to 45 percent faster thanks to the newly developed API. An update prepares the game for Mantle will be out later this month.
Better start to ecomonize on this baby

Oh come on don't be so negative you should try it first and only after that go on deciding if it's worth or not.
