Happy April 1st.

You should see how fast the Pro can run A Plagues Tale!

Downloaded it yesterday and now debating with myself as to whether I continue Forbidden West or switch over to Jurassic Park tonight!

I've been locked out of my ubisoft connect account for about 2 weeks now. It just stopped accepting my password claiming it was wrong (it wasn't) , their pw reset function isn't sending me the reset link to my email, and my support tickets been open for over a week 😞

I've been wanting JWE since I got the first one free a few years back on EPIC. Absolutely loved it and made up this has come along now right when I was feeling an itch for a sim type game.

That's an amazing result for FSR4 is it holds up across other games. Better than DLSS CNN! I really didn't expect that. Still a way behind DLSS TNN overall but even exceeding that in some limited areas. Superb show from AMD there. If there AI denoiser can hold up then we might finally have...

This is one of the earliest games I can remember owning. Wish I still had it for the nostalgia value. Those old game boxes were huuuuge!!

According to TPU FSR4 requires 779 AI TOPS which pretty much confirms it has very little to do with PSSR (which runs on the PS5 Pros 300 TOPs) and will hopefully be a much superior solution. Also the 9070 (non XT) offers almost 1200 TOPs or around 4x the PS5 Pros AI capability at raster levels...

So from 5% faster than the 5070Ti with no RT to 16.6% slower with Path tracing in CP2077. So still not Ada/Blackwell levels of RT but a big improvement overall. Equalising raster performance it looks to be about 20% slower in PT and around 9% slower with Ultra RT in CP2077.

I doubt he's overly concerned about Teslas drop in value tbh. Nor twitter which was and is likely just a means to an end for him. He's basically power mad and now has more power than pretty much anyone in the world outside of maybe Trump and that guy running China. I think its pretty crazy...

My post was in response to the suggestion that FSR4 being good enough meant DLSS didn't need to be considered as part of the purchasing decision or value proposition of a particular GPU.

If we say one upscaler is good enough compared to another upscaler to make it not worth factoring them into the comparison - even if it produces a noticably inferior output, where does that leave us in like for like comparisons? We could argue for example that 1800p is good enough compared with...

The DirectStorage support is going to be really interesting considering how horrendously slow this game is at loading currently. The update also brings Dolby Atmos support so should be a major audio upgrade for those using headphones and Atmos. I'm half tempted to fire up a fresh playthrough...

One thing I always wonder is in these days of upscaling, should I be paying attention to the 4K numbers which usually show the biggest performance increase or the 1080p number which is the actual internal resolution (with DLSS performance) I'll likely be running most of the most demanding games...

I've a hard time believing that given the relatively tiny jump from there to the 5080 but significant price increase. If true though I would very likely get one - mostly for the 16GB VRAM but the performance boost would be nice too.
