    Modder transforms AMD's RX 5600 XT by boosting its memory capacity to 16GB and widening its memory bus to 256-bits

    This is cool, reconfiguring the entire memory setup, nabbing additional performance. I wish I could use a soldering gun, but being blind in one eye and having poor depth perception has made it damn near impossible for me every time I’ve tried. Honestly though, It’d be cooler if he could do...

    So it's been a minute I know but over the summer? I joined Team Red!

    I used to be “old school” like that. Reinstall windows anytime I ran into issues, that is until I got into a serious relationship and got married and became a step father. Unfortunately for some—reinstalling Windows is a major undertaking, sometimes not worth the headaches. In this instance...

    Steam players are reverting back to GTX 1660 graphics cards, despite Nvidia's best efforts

    Sorry for the extra reply, but I paid the price full well knowing what I was getting. Yes it wasn’t cheap, yes it stung a little, but I’m happy with it. I get to experience all the goodies the AMD side couldn’t provide, with solid enough performance to last me a good three to four years. So call...

    Steam players are reverting back to GTX 1660 graphics cards, despite Nvidia's best efforts

    If that rationalization is getting better features then sure, you can call it that. By the time 12GB becomes not enough, the 20GB on the 7900XT is already wasted since neither of these GPU’s will be able to run the latest AAA titles when this time comes, say four to five years from now, at...

    Steam players are reverting back to GTX 1660 graphics cards, despite Nvidia's best efforts

    If I wasn’t so sure you’d most likely just name games that use more than 8GB as the foundation of your argument, I’d ask you to name some. In my post though I referenced a 12GB GPU, so, on that note I’ll wait while you find examples—and they can’t be games that were broken at launch and/or...

    Steam players are reverting back to GTX 1660 graphics cards, despite Nvidia's best efforts

    People still going on and on about VRAM... That's AMD's shtick--put more VRAM on a GPU than what's necessary, or even what the GPU could realistically handle. But for the sake of argument using the 4070Ti and 7900XT as examples, lets use this scenario: new AAA game comes out, uses advanced RT...

    AMD Could Tease DLSS 3-rivaling FSR 3.0 at GDC 2023

    Considering FSR 3 works with Async Compute and Nvidia’s FG works utilizing better Optical Flow Accelerators than the 20/30 series have you can’t really use FSR3 as a gotcha thing since they require different tech. My moneys on FSR3+FG being behind Nvidia’s solution for quite some time. Kudos...

    Nvidia Says Native Resolution Gaming is Out, DLSS is Here to Stay

    Yet the higher end GPU’s, the ones that generally see less sales remain priced the same. Does that mean more people are moving on up to the higher end and ditching the mid range? Maybe Nvidia is making enough money off of its top three GPU’s to keep them priced the same? I don’t think it has...

    Nvidia Says Native Resolution Gaming is Out, DLSS is Here to Stay

    I hate to say this but we're "sheep." The reason why businesses don't bend to our demands is because at the end of the day none of us are truly going to vote with our wallet if we want the absolute best option; even if that option goes against our principles and beliefs. At the end of the...

    Nvidia Says Native Resolution Gaming is Out, DLSS is Here to Stay

    I'm honestly okay with this. Temporal Upscaling has been a boon to gaming as a whole. Sure, Native is nice, I won't disagree, but when you can get 90-95% of the IQ of Native while achieving 25-30% more frames per second, what's the issue? It's the same as the argument that running High settings...

    Starfield’s Performance on Nvidia’s 4090 and AMD’s 7900 XTX analyzed by Chips and Cheese

    I'm sure some modders will come along and actually fix this in a "community" patch.

    A $5 Starfield mod to enable DLSS Frame Generation has been cracked to remove modder's DRM

    Or not. Star Wars Jedi Survivor getting DLSS right after AMD made their statement isn’t just mere coincidence. Either way, how does it harm AMD if a developer implements DLSS alongside FSR? Just because FSR is a catch all doesn’t give developers a valid reason to not include DLSS, it’s either...

    A $5 Starfield mod to enable DLSS Frame Generation has been cracked to remove modder's DRM

    Well, in a lot of ways it's a valid point. If people are plunking down $1000+, then buying the games in question, then $5 for access to one modders works to add something that doesn't exist in the games they may be looking to play, especially one that's high in demand, isn't an outrageous price...

    A $5 Starfield mod to enable DLSS Frame Generation has been cracked to remove modder's DRM

    I like PureDark’s approach. Yes, he’s charging $5/month, and the DRM is a one time check, so if you decide to unsubscribe you won’t lose access to that version of the mod. Anyways, what I like is having all of the mods listed with links in one place, Discord, with the ability to give real time...

    AMD shows of Fluid Motion Frames (AFMF), FG tech that works for all DX11/DX12 games

    Not bad, let's see how it holds up when it comes out. It'd be nice to see it come out swinging and be impactful, and hold that same consistency in every game, and not just one cherry picked game.
