This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I use it. It's fucking amazing for certain games. I can only run cyberpunk at like 50-60 fps. This literally makes it run at 144 with very minimal issues. A fast processor and freesync/gsync eliminates the input lag almost entirely.

Best case for it is to run fps locked games at higher fps like Metal Gear Rising Revengeance

Still wouldn't use it for online shooters though and it doesn't play well with quite a few games. But when It works it really works. So much so I just have it launch to my system tray and I casually flip it on whenever I try a new game because sometimes it's really nice.

Like sometimes in a game the camera movement will be a tad choppy. This cleans up most choppy cameras. It's just a neat thing to toy with.

Oh yeah it's the only frame generation you can use that doesn't require you go through some horrid upscaler first. Full image quality babee

Cyberpunk already supports upscaling - but this app does it better?

Yes. On my system in my opinion . Also to clarify I'm only using the frame generation technology. I hate upscalers which is part of why I like this program. You can use frame gen without upscaling

Does it let you do frame generation without a 40XX GPU?

Yeah currently rocking an RX 5700xt

FSR 3.1 (specifically 3.1, not 3.0) added an optional decoupling of the frame generation and the upscaling, but yeah that would still need first party support from the game developer. I should edit my comment to explicitly mention the frame gen possibility, didn't realize that was something people were using this for!
