They are using nividia's game works library, tw3 has been showcased exclusively on nvidia cards, nvidia has offered free copies of the game with purchase of their cards. The last developer that did the same as what CDPR are doing now with nividia was ubisoft with AC unity and everyone knows how that turned out. It is known nvidia game works cuts off amd at the knees plain and simple. Its pretty clear CDPR are in partnership with nividia. Does that mean this game will run bad on amd? Guess we'll find out Tuesday.

Because game works library is not allowed to be looked at by amd, which means it will take them longer to release optimized drivers. Now, thats not a bad thing IF this game is not in dire need of drivers from amd on release.Here is some anecdotal evidence. I have been an ati card buyer since it was a Canadian company and I have NEVER had a problem playing any game that was optimized for the Nvidia cards. Why do people think that suddenly this one game will render AMD cards useless? I don't get how this manufactured problem even started? If you have a crap video card you wont get a great visual experience regardless of the company, if you have a high end video card be it Nvidia or AMD you will have a great visual experience. Isn't that all that really matters? Or must your experience have the best frame rate period?
