"The NVIDIA Reflex SDK allows game developers to implement a low latency mode that aligns game engine work to complete just-in-time for rendering, eliminating the GPU render queue and reducing CPU back pressure in GPU-bound scenarios. Epic, Bungie, Respawn, Activision, Blizzard, and Riot have integrated NVIDIA Reflex and seen tremendous results."

 
i tried to determine if this thread or post was a dupe, had trouble finding any other relevant results so let me know if i've made a mistake

Thanks,

Sounds like you went to a tremendous effort! How tremendous is that?

Was just quoting the story's final tremendous conclusion "...have integrated NVIDIA Reflex and seen tremendous results."
 
Nothing Gamers love more than a vendor specific set of APIs and Ecosystem.

Yeah it sucks that it's vendor specific, but if it wasn't most of this technology just wouldn't exist.
Nvidia creates some new cool tech, AMD makes their own version, then some sort of standard gets created, then the proprietary ones fade away.
It would be cool if it was just standard to begin with, but it just doesn't happen without some sort of financial incentive in reality.

Actually AMD typically chooses the open standard route first.
 
OOh a new feature, that will bring out the AMD fans who will be pissed that AMD doesn't get it (yet). Somehow that will be Nvidia's fault.. so of course they are pissed at Nvidia for making new tech to improve their games.

If AMD did it first, they would just be saying "screw you Nvidia, see what AMD did!"

Actually AMD typically chooses the open standard route first.
They have to because they have much smaller market share. It wouldn't get any traction otherwise.

And usually 2-4 years after somebody else already did it. Which is not a slight against them, let somebody work out the hard parts and determine if there is a market for it before investing the time and money into an open alternative. Usually in conjunction with a group like Kronos, possibly with some financial backing from a research institution or two. For a smaller company like AMD that’s how they can work to stay relevant, almost certainly NVidia has spent more money on Reflex than AMD could currently dream of sinking into a single non core product.
