"In the specific title with specific settings using a laptop edition 3070 against intel's desktop edition A770. With the main computer running an 13900k and the Nvidia being driven by a 7700k with 8 gig of ram where the Intel box has 32 gig and a NVME the Nvidia system is running on a 5400 RPM platter drive with the swap oversized.

What the results demonstrate is that ray tracing should be disabled on both cards.

You just need to use an upscaler and it's more than playable

That said we have no idea how XeSS looks and all their marketing videos have used purposely invalid comparisons

I think upscalers are the worst thing for advanced graphics to happen in a long time. It's a stop gap measure being marketed as a advanced feature. the only reason it's considered advanced is it looks alright on LCD panels. Back in the day of CRT we would game at lower res full screen ALL THE **** TIME and nobody thought it was cutting edge.
