I am actually not sure about that one, let me take a look and write in here if I find anything.

I cannot directly talk about financials as that is not my place at DF, but I can say from OUR perspective, videos covering newer NV tech do tend to do better historically for viewership numbers than those that cover new AMD tech. A good example is DLSSRR vs. FSR3, or DLSS vs. FSR2 or DLSS vs. FSR1.

I think looking at the reddit communities, respective community discourse, and sharing habits is enlightening here. r/intel is half the size of r/AMD. I do not need to say much about the posting style - if you frequent them, you know what they are like.

Yes from my perspective it is just the rumour mill. I do not think there is evidence to the contrary. So like you said, it could just be the clicks and the hype cycle which contracts after reality sets in and all clicks have been gotten.

Why does AMD historically have such a record with cancelled or botched high end units? I swear I read similar stories every few years about the high-end GPU underperforming or being cancelled. Kind of starting with 7000 series

I think this is a contribution from The Coalition to UE5

I would say, not so much TAA, rather the other denoisers that are Not RR + TAA.

It really becomes noticable for me on anything that approaches mirror-like surface roughness. I would say it becomes noticable first on most shiney metals already, but for specular reflections on plants, rocks, and dull metals, it is not noticable. The issue is of course that such a thing only...

A game dropping 2 FPS every 1000 frames could be a 50 MS frame-time Spike in a 60 FPS game every 16 Seconds. That would be awful user experience in my book and I would pan that game. In fact I have panned such games, as that is how dead space performs in PC. We really do not complain about...

I think you will like today's DF video. 1.3 for sure advanced XMX and DP4a versions considerably.

Sounds like simplifications will continue to be used in HWRT then until hardware evolves if that is the case (staggered update, simpler materials, lesser geo). It is not like the SWRT in Lumen/any other game is going to be attempting to maintain material/geometric parity with primary view once...

I am not sure if that is exactly a fair appraisal. The order is rather famous for its extensive use of post-processing. Including: Chromatic Abberation, barrel distortion, motion blur, depth of field, bloom and light flares. It has a constant depth of field on, even in gameplay. It was...

I like this view.
