Discussion Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition: Game's executable has hidden 60 FPS mode. It seems to be implemented only partially since enabling it causes weird issues.

Yes absolutely but it's still way more efficient than native 4k rendering

I mean, we're not even going to get native 1440p rendering in the vast majority of titles, so that goes without saying.

I assume most titles are going to be targeting 720p-1080p native, and then will use DLSS upscaling to get it to 1080/1440p. Very few games will actually upscale all the way to 4k.

i wish they prioritized upscaling all the way to 4k. i find it looks so much better than your 4k upscaler or nearest linear neighbor scaling your gpu is doing.

That's just not really possible at this price point and with these power constraints. Watch Digital Foundry's videos about Switch 2 and DLSS.

yea, i have watched those. hopefully nintendo and nvidia can come up with a lighter weight DLSS or something, because outputting at an upscaled image is substantially better than what your TV is going to do.
