As DirectX 12 and Windows 10 roll out across the PC ecosystem, the number of titles that support Microsoft’s new API is steadily growing. Last month, we previewed Ashes of the Singularity and its DirectX 12 performance; today we’re examining Microsoft’s Fable Legends.

Meanwhile, many users have published claims that the GTX 970 fights to keep RAM usage at or slightly below 3.5GB of total VRAM whereas the GTX 980 ...
