So they are putting all of thier eggs into the Mantle basket, given the recent DX announcement I think that they'll be wasting time on that now and should be looking at other things, Mantle at the end of the year I dont think is going to do them any good...

I wonder if it's anything to do with the Second Assault which is been released today. I did have an Origin update over the weekend. Try rebooting your PC ans see if Origin updates when it starts.

Well the Mantle patch is out for BF4. Ways in at 1.23g and you have to update your game even if you are running Nvidia cards. You also need the AMD BETA 13.95 drivers to use it. Currently it will only work with the new generation of cards, the R series. I think AMD BETA 14.1 drivers are out tomorrow...
