I recently started Dragon Age Inquisition and after a short playtime switched from DirectX 11 to Mantle API. The game began freezing often, ran at very low frame rates (around 6-15 fps), had no stat display from Rivatuner, and would randomly crash or tear the start screen. Everything functions fine with DirectX 11. I’m just wondering why Mantle behaves this way. Specs: AMD FX-6350 OC'd to 4.2 GHz MSI 970 Gaming board, XFX R9 270X, 2GB RAM, 8GB RAM, Windows 10 Pro 64-bit.

Mantle isn't being actively supported or tested by AMD anymore, which means issues might go unnoticed. I'd upgrade to the newest drivers, and if the problem persists, try playing in dx11.
