GamersNexus: "In my many years working on the journalism side of this industry, I've never seen nVidia put forth such an aggressive stance as exhibited during last week's press conference. We'll start this post with some rapid-fire catching up from the last few months."
Darryl Linington from Notebookchect.net writes, "The backlash around Nvidia’s AI push and DLSS 5 has opened a broader question in game development. Beyond performance and image quality, veteran artists are now weighing what AI-driven rendering means for authorship and visual control. If a system can add or reinterpret detail after the fact, the issue is no longer just technical. It becomes a question of how much of the final image still belongs to the people who built it."
The latest GeForce driver introduces DLSS 4.5 Multi Frame Generation 5x and 6x alongside Dynamic Multi Frame Generation to RTX 50-series GPUs. The former increases the number of interpolated frames to 4 and 5 (between every two rendered frames), further reducing reliance on the CPU.
Big corp bowing down to another big corp is nothing more than helping each other. But try any games it doesn't work
I don't mind frame gen but only use it if I'm already >70fps without it. It is kinda nice but if I see any visual artifacts I will turn it off. Whenever I'm playing games on my 120Hz LG C3 I will almost never use it because frame rates >120fps look really bad. I think spatial super sampling is a far more interesting and beneficial tech than frame gen. Boosting 30fps to 60fps with framegen is just garbage.
Tvs were doing this 15 years ago with their telenovela effect... Idk how anyone can play with this on.
There is definitely input lag there and artifacts.
Frame gen just has too much latency and visual glitches for me, don't think I can ever use it for most games. I'd compare with it on and off and it's a world of difference in the feel. I need the very least input lag in my gaming. Companies should rely on actual optimization. As for potato hardware, I suppose it could have it's use.
WTMG's Jordan Hawes: "With the advent of NVIDIA's DLSS 5 tools, and the whole debacle surrounding AI usage in AAA gaming, is this new push an opportunity for smaller studios to showcase they are the ones vouching for artistic integrity in the gaming industry?"
They already are. Indie studios are the only developers that constantly strive to publish innovative and experimental experiences. There has been little to no art in AAA gaming, with just a few exceptions.
Indie-studios have been showcasing their creative superiority and bravery over AAA-studios/releases for a while now.
Personally. I have zero interest in AI slop in any of my entertainment, so regardless of what Sony, Ubisoft, MS, EA, etc believe the future is, I'm just not gonna touch any of that stuff.
One more thing in a long list of things that already give indie Games an advantage
In reality a dev having a simplistic tech statck does not really impact the end user experience. If the game is good and worth playing is what matters. In other words some cooks make care if 2 or 3 eggs were used to make a cake but the person eating it doesn't. And in the case of DLSS 5 the chef is soley responsible for the recipe and how its mixed together.
Shut up and launch maxwell. It like the waiting for amd to catch up. For the last couple of yrs they been announcing new tech but Dont launch it. They just announced Pascal that 5x or more powerful than GPUs now and tech they codeveloped with Intel to get rid of bottlenecks.
So it either their waiting for Intel new CPU to fully utilize this tech or they're working with amd . Anyway release maxwell and shield 2 already.
Just wondering -- Will a 770 be bottleneck by my i7 920 @2.6?
Dammit the driver update is only for GTX 7xx and up -_-
Whats with all the bitching?
Last time I checked competition was good.
Keeps companies in check, so they don't get lazy, thus delivering the best for their customers.
I got a Gainward GTX 770 last year for $490
It's gonna sit well for me for years to come.
I'll admit, I was a huge amd & radeon fan... Untill they merged. It seemed they bit off more than they could chew.
My amd cpu and ati chip ran into the 90c-100c.
That's bullshit hot, especially for a hot country like Australia. So one day when my ati x800 gpu fried itself to death I decided to switch to intel cpu and nvidia gpu. Sitting cool at 30c (room temp), goes to 50-60c with MAX load.
Sorry ati/radeon/amd never looked back.
anyone else find it amusing that AMD provides the hardware inside Microsoft's xbox one and at the same time is trying to take out the API that runs on that hardware?
