Glad to see that I wasn't the only one. Was starting to think I was just incompetent and admittedly, I kinda was because this was 20+ years ago in some cases and information wasn't as readily available or easy to find as right now. My best guides for building PCs were books I got at the local library and they weren't always up to date. Otherwise, I could call guys from the store or bring it there but they charged a hefty penny and I didn't have that kind of money back then.

It would seem the Witcher 3 devs need to drop the lower bounds of their DRS implementation dropping some more if they can't improve performance with a few patches.

Holy shit at these resolution numbers:
- PS5 in performance mode uses a dynamic resolution with the highest resolution found being 2560x1440 and the lowest resolution found being 1280x720
- PS5 in the 30fps quality mode uses a dynamic resolution with the highest resolution found being 3840x2160 and the lowest resolution found being 1920x1080
- PS5 in the 30fps ray tracing mode uses a dynamic resolution with the highest resolution found being 2880x1620 and the lowest resolution found being 1472x828
- PS5 in the 40fps ray tracing mode has the same resolution setup as the 30fps ray tracing mode but the average rendering resolution is lower as the DRS system is targeting 40fps

WTF
From what I saw graphics wasn't impressive enough to warrant such low resolutions.
Wasn't expecting to see that at all.
Pretty sure it's the normal UE4 upscale path.
1080p > TAAU > spatial upscaling.
Trying to do checkerboard from output of TAAU is pretty much impossible. (No checkerboard pattern.)

I just played through and completed the demo last night. It has nice particle effects and it loads quickly but thats just about it.
While I'm not as pressed as others about pre-image reconstructed pixel counts in the age of DLSS and FSR, this engine isn't doing anything special and more importantly the art direction isn't able to pick up the slack.
It felt like I was playing a game that the devs were forced to create.
It's a shame since I was rooting for it and was hoping to pick it up. Also, this will probably be the last time we see this engine as I can't imagine them pouring more resources into engineering with results like this.
I do remember the article, pretty sure there is error.
If not, they do something very strange to prepare all inputs for CB at TAAU output.
Just looks at how much faster Ampere is over Turing. This game must be pushing RT crazy hard.
I hope (and assume) we will see a DF console settings comparison as the PC must be going way, way higher here.

It wouldn't surprise me if the 4000 series are getting more in the drivers too as they're new.
That is what the developers told us after we asked them saying "this looks like 1080p TAAU to 4K, can you confirm?". We also have honestly no idea what they meant with that.
Seems PS5 performance has pretty stable framerate at a decent resolution. But the size of the game is massive at about 74GB. It's double the size of the PS4 game!

Tried the gamepass version, and despite the usual cadre of "No stutters here!" responses Alex always gets, yes it has shader compilation stutter. There is no precompiling currently.
Baller move to link to the docs though.
40 fps @ 1440p gaming on a 3080 with DLSS and a 5800x cpu. Seems totally reasonable.
