Just updated my Drivers to 14.2 and my Radeon R9 270 shows no performance increase in Battlefield 4 when i switch to mantle from DirectX. Is it me or the API? i was expecting at least an extra 10fps :/
 
Solution
I honestly think your expectation was high. From what I've read about Mantle, if you have a strong CPU, you'd be lucky to get 10 frames.

So if you were averaging 70 FPS, 10% of that is 7 FPS. Now you're averaging 77.
