Asidcast says "For those of you that might not know or have not bothered, now might be a pretty good time to get acquainted with Nvidia Gameworks. Initally launched in 2014, Gameworks is a collection of propriety technologies and APIs that Nvidia offers to developers."
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.
I don't put it behind nVidia doing fishy things with their products.
I bought two 970s in the hopes that it would perform well, but with the huge crap that it implemented with false advertisement, lying, and doing some skeptical jumping around trying to explain what they did with the VRAM, its really hard to believe or trust nVidia anymore.
I go with their products simply because games do run better on them, even though with performance on paper AMD beats them.
I do firmly believe nVidia could do a lot more allowing AMD to have better performance and better transparency with their "gameworks" suite.
Why do all new nvidia cards have such a low bitrate? Amd have larger ones now its like they swapped.
Its Nice to see Nvidia gamers see this same way mature PC Gamers do despite my Logo I used to be big fan of Nvidia and since amd got there act together and have stable drivers video cards that debunks alot these myths which are no more. I have had more than 6 AMD cards in my time but more Nvidia.
The reason i chose get the R9 290x after owning a 7970 was thinking going back to Nvidia was because the way nvidia have changed not for the greater good.
Its sad cos Nvidia always had the Market for sometime now without these tactics.
not a big fan they're completely gimpung Keplar which for me is the GTX 780ti that I own in most new games. After the big fiasco that was GTX 970 I hope to go with AMD next time I buy a card
"As to the surprise of many Reddit users, even the last gen flagships such as the 780Ti were struggling to keep up with the current gen 960 even though having far more power as compared to the card. "
So Nvidia is gimping old gen graphic cards, even though they were more powerful, to make people buy newer ones? Great buisiness model.
