- Honestly if you're at the 7900XT/4070Ti Super level of performance or above already, there really isn't much of a meaningful upgrade path until you hit the 4090 or 5090. It really comes down to what features you value and how fat your wallet is.

-Youre thinking Zorg, but yeah, common for B Sci-Fi to go with Z names cause they sound like they're from spaaaaace. Zoidberg, Zaius, Zorg, Zotac...

Fewer companies, selling fewer things, but for more money a pop, and line keeps going up. Seems to be the theme of the 2020's...

- Problem with all frame gen solutions is they perform the worst when you need them the most. Low base FPS means input lag and way more artifacting than if you're starting with a high base FPS. I'm going to give a couple games a shot (cyberpunk for example) with AMD's FG turned on so I can see...

-I mean a live in person test. It could be filmed ofc, but the people being subject to the test would be seeing gameplay rendered in real time a natural.

Honestly it feels like we're at the point where unless you're specifically pixel peeping, most of this stuff is going to look roughly equivalent to everything else (at least as far as upscaling is concerned, jury is out on FG) in terms of actual gameplay. I think a far more entertaining test...

Oh boy, shovel on the coal for the AMD GPU Hype Choo Choo, right on schedule.

If Fable as a franchise can see a (decent looking) rebirth after all these years... then literally anything can come back from the grave. Fingers crossed that we get a half-decent Dragon Age game within the next 15 years...

- The pricing on it has remained stubbornly high through the last couple Steam sales and such. If it dropped to a clean $9.99 (like the W3 GOTY edition) then I figure it would be cheap enough for a lot of people to pick up simply out of curiosity. At the $20+ it still costs now (in addition to...

Weird use of the Marathon property. Anyone old enough to remember what Marathon was isn't going to care for some cookie cutter shooter, and anyone young enough to still care about Bungie isn't going see the draw of Marathon as a property.

- Its literally what Nvidia does everytime they release a DLSS update (the recent DLSS 4.5 update for example). The driver simply intercepts the DLL calls and injects its own. Its not like every game with DLSS has to manually be updated to the new DLSS version.

-AMD's drivers will actually inject FSR4 into any FSR3 compatible game out there (FSR3 switched to an Nvidia style dll model, so versions are easily swappable) so there is supposedly way more FSR4 compatibility out there than it first seems if you're specifically looking for games built with FSR4.

I'm shocked W1 is at 10 million. Game is hella eurojank and frankly just not all that much fun to play. Its exactly the kind of game that would benefit massively from a remake (which is supposed to be in progress). You can see the vision there, the execution however was... rough. A lot of teeth...

Yeah, I really only upgraded after taking a look at part prices due to AI and deciding I'd rather pick something up now in the event that consumer GPUs experience another long drought a la mining than wait and potentially end up with even more expensive cards or having my 980ti finally crap out...

Stopped by the semi-local microcenter today and picked up a PC Reaper 9070xt open box that they had for $602. This is the most I've ever spent on a video card ever, in my entire life but by modern standards in both the new and used market, the thing is a steal (esp. given I snagged my 6800xt...
