If you like GoT, you'd probably like Shogun

I'm going to need context here
Windows 11. It sucks but I have apps that don't run on Linux, and there simply aren't any alternatives. I dual boot Kubuntu on my laptop and Kubuntu is great. I just wish software compatibility is better
Microraptor. I have a soft spot for the small dinos
It's confusing because both AMD and Nvidia call both frame gen and upscaling as the same thing.
Upscaling: GPU renders game at low resolution (eg, 720p), and then (semi) smartly guesses what's in the pixels that weren't rendered. You get improved framerates because the GPU is doing less work per frame. The downside is typically that the image is typically a bit blurrier, and depending on how the GPU guesses the missing pixels, you might also get ghosting, which is where moving objects leave a smear trail behind them. The general consensus is that if you plan to use an upscaler, you should only use the highest quality mode on the upscaler. Any lower and the blurring becomes too significant
Use when:
- your GPU isn't powerful enough to drive your monitor at its native resolution (ie you were going to run the game at a lower resolution anyways)
- your game isn't running as fast as you'd like, but turning down the settings would result in too noticeable of a drop in visual quality
- your game doesn't support your monitor's native resolution (common in older games)
Do not use when:
- you could turn down the settings and still be satisfied with the visual quality
Frame gen: GPU renders a frame, holds on to the frame, renders the next frame, and then guesses at what happened between the two frames. The framerate is improved because the GPU is inserting an entirely guessed frame in between every rendered frame. The downside is that because the GPU has to hold on to a frame, the latency is increased. More specifically, the time between when you move your mouse and when your camera moves will be increased with frame gen.
Use when:
- your game isn't latency-sensitive (eg puzzle games, strategy games, some adventure games)
- you have a high refresh rate monitor (higher refresh rates typically lead to less added latency)
Do not use when:
- your frame rate (without frame gen) is below 60 fps (added latency becomes too noticeable)
- your game is latency-sensitive (eg competitive multiplayer games)
Terminology:
-
AMD FSR 1: semi-dumb upscaler
-
AMD RSR: literally just FSR 1
-
AMD FSR 2: semi-smart upscaler
-
AMD FSR 3: very slightly smarter upscaler than FSR 2, and comes with semi-smart frame generation
-
AMD AFMF: literally just the frame generation part of FSR 3, but slightly dumber
-
nVidia DLSS 1: semi-dumb upscaler
-
nVidia NSR: literally just DLSS 1
-
nVidia DLSS 2: semi-smart upscaler
-
nVidia DLSS 3: smarter upscaler than DLSS 3, and comes with semi-smart frame generation
-
Intel XeSS: semi-smart upscaler
Ori and the Blind Forest. Every song in the soundtrack is brilliant
Who's to say that Ai Hoshino isn't also blind?
Sure, but the issue is that employers will try to replace non-replaceable jobs along with the replaceable ones. Eventually employers will figure it out and hire people again for the non-replaceable jobs, but in the meantime, real people with real lives will suffer
There was an assassination attempt on Trump recently. He barely escaped being shot in the head and managed to get away with only a graze that damaged his right ear
No, the point is that trump wouldn't use the right airpod, so it will always be at full charge
Level1Tech did mention your exact issue as one of the common symptoms that would occur on degraded 13th/14th gen parts. It's looking like it's the CPU's error, not the SSD
I read music and I still have no idea what it's trying to say
