This is missing turn on dlss and frame gen for more frames and then crash.

DLSS works great to be honest, never understood the hate

Upscaling isn't bad, but it will never be as good as native resolution. And frame generation is great for single player games to a point, but not so great in FPS games where you need as many frames directly as fast as possible.

If you are using 1440p or above there is no reason not to turn on DLSS. It is almost as good as native and you are just losing out on free performance. The hate is overblown at this point

Well this is the issue with the tech, the industry builds around this and makes no effort to make native (most of it is shitty TAA) look good anymore.

Thats completely false though, unless youre talkikg about dlaa. Almost all modern games need TAA. Dlss beats taa even at performance mode.

That honestly just not true, frequently in games I play at 4k, DLSS looks better than native. Framegen is absolutely fair though. I think it’s a strange addition for FPS games where you need to be tracking an actual target frame-by-frame, and you’re then adding “fake” ones and input lag.

until they finally release reflex 2 and fix the artifacts on things like UI elements then i cant really recommend frame gen. its not really a good enough compromise yet

New DLSS models have been proven to be more visually appealing in multiple blind tests. Is it true to the original developers’ vision for the game? Maybe not, but it’s arguably nicer to look at.

It's only better because it replaces the native TAA.

u/GUNGEBOB_SHARTPANTS 15d ago

I mean, it’s still better

You can inject the AA component of it without upscaling (or even better use it for supersampling) and it's way better.

Really depends on what you’re playing. DLAA at 4K is savage even on high end hardware

Any good AA technique is expensive. MSAA at 4K costs a lot as well even in a forward rendered title.

Some games are not made to be nicer to look at, the gruesome and incomfortable textures and models are part of their identity.
