Is there any GPU that stands out to guys as a giod value, or do you believe that everybody should skip them?
I’m liking the 5070 Ti with 16GB 256-bit transfer speed 896 GB/s for $750USD. The 5080 for $1000USD has 16GB 256-bit for 960 GB/s. I don’t see value for the extra $250.
The both have 2x 9th Gen NVENC encoder. The 5080 has 2x 6th Gen decoder, 5070 Ti has 1x 6th Gen decoder. I can use that for OBS recording while watching other videos.
I am of the opinion that DLSS and FSR is an admission of failure by GPU engineers that they are not capable,–so far,-- to design a GPU that does 4K 160fps with psycho raytracing on, zero upscaling, zero frame generation.
I do believe that they are wrking on it, but nVidia/AMD demand gimmicks in the meantime to continue selling GPU’s.
I suspect that the 5090 will be the first card to do 1440p with psycho raytracing at 144 fps without DLSS enabled.
There’s something about Reflex 2 that is bothering me or concerning me, but I have no clue what it is.
How is it an admission of faliure? They probably can design a GPU for that, but do you want to pay hundreds of thousands, because the chip uses a full silicon wafer?
Do you think NVIDIA or AMD should have sat on that technology for decades, until it’s good enough for 4k 144fps? Then you would probably say, it’s not good enough, because it can’t do 8k 144fps. Also, why 4k as your arbitrary limit? Most people are still on 1080p. So why not just say it’s good enough, when the hardware can do 1080p 60fps.
Definitely not, since it can’t even do 30fps in 4k, with all the bells and whistles and no DLSS. 1440p ist probably not even gonna be 60fps.
What? I’m pretty sure the technology they’re using, Frame Warping, has been around for years, and it’s used in VR, so you can just look that up and see what it does.
anyone could have told them that. real time path tracing is a pipe dream, even now. The actual raytracing output is a very noisy, incomplete image. Halving the noise requires 4x the compute. We won’t get realtime raytracing anytime this decade for sure, if ever.
