If only AMD would catch up with raytracing, DLSS, compute, and HDMI 2.1...

Everytime I think about switching to AMD these things always hold me back. There isn't a solution where you can throw money at the problem, unfortunately.

If only AMD would catch up with DLSS

DLSS is proprietary NVidia technology. That's just like blaming Nvidia not being able to catch up on CPUs because Intel and AMD did not give them a license for the x86_64 instruction set. AMD supports the other technologies just fine.

I am not saying AMD should get DLSS to run somehow on their GPUs. I am saying that their competiting technology, FSR 2, just isn't at the same quality level. If FSR 2 didn't exhibit extremely bad disocclusion artifacts and particle ghosting, or even worked decently well at lower resolutions, I wouldn't be complaining. But it really is just a subpar upscaling solution that gets beaten out even by Intel's XeSS, which was a late arrival to the scene.

FSR is open source. Patches welcome.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

And your point is? Just because it is open source doesn't make it automatically good and it doesn't excuse the company running the project from being competitive lol.

AMD hardware doesn't have the dedicated AI cores to make it work well anyway.
