    Thanks. This was an hypothesis I had based on the video I saw that seemed to perform significantly better than your GPU, but yours seem fully tapped out. If you can still test it on your high-end system, it'd be appreciated. What are your thoughts on the ReBar issue? This reminds me of...

    He makes an entire pass through the forest. You can watch it here. Timestamped. It never drops anywhere near as low as 57fps and certainly more than doubles PS4's performance. Well, could you try with a different setup to confirm? Say, throw the 3060 into the 9800X3D machine and see if the...

    Is the frame rate/time the one and only true measure of GPU performance?

    So, I often see people trying to use metrics such as TFLOPs to gauge a GPU's performance. What I frequently hear is that compute is only one metric and doesn't consider factors such as bandwidth, fill rate, ROPs, etc. It's an important metric, but just a single one that isn't representative of...

    It can if paired with a fast enough CPU. Stolen from Neogaf. The optimized settings are very similar to the Pro settings in the DF video, I would even say higher overall. Worth noting that Motion Blur is completely disabled here, but on the flip side, Volumetrics are Medium instead of...

    @Dictator Was the game patched? This guy averages 135fps at 4K on a 5090+9800X3D. You were getting 85 with DLSS Performance.

    Based on this at least, AMD GPUs don't seem to perform any better.

    Continues the trend of TLOU Part I. This game on PS5 outperforms even a 3070/2080 Ti and comes close to a 3070 Ti, which is in general 40% faster than the PS5's GPU. The RTX 3060 performs especially poorly though. 3.5x faster, but doesn't even manage to run the game 1.5x faster.

    It's the Anvil engine. NVIDIA cards have always done poorly on it, often being outperformed by their AMD counterparts by up to 20%.

    I couldn’t disagree more with this. The only difference is RTGI, which while important, isn’t nearly enough to justify the praise. No PSSR, the resolution is just as low as on the PS5 performance mode, if not lower, and the graphics aren’t improved. For a system with a faster GPU, 2 to 4 times...

    @Dictator Any reason why DLSS4 is so heavy in Rift Apart? You did a previous video and summarized the cost of the Transformer model and it's not that high. DLSS4 taking the game from 130 fps to 105 fps doesn't seem normal.

    This engine simply doesn't seem fit for huge environments. It was the same story for DD2. And yeah, as much as I love games from Japanese devs, they're often technically very underwhelming. Elden Ring, Monster Hunter Wilds, Dragon's Dogma 2, and many more.

    That would surprise me, unless there are obvious CPU issues like with DD2. That or VRAM requirements are very high.
