After seeing their graphics card prices and the corners they cut and the gouging, same. Bought a 2070s new in 2019. Next card if I can ever afford one again is definitely AMD lol. Plus the Linux support is just so much better.

RTX remix is for modders.
Quite frankly, I would not mind having DLSS 5 in architecture games like House Flipper, where doing a quick and dirty illustration without diving into pro software with massive subscription fees or overcomplicated workflows.
Not to mention, the hyperrealism would fit the simulator genre like The Bus or Truck Simulator.

The point is that NVIDIA decided to inject AI slop into their product and in that single move ruined their entire reputation in my eyes. I dont need a cozy game AI-Slopified into “photo realism” especially when its the AI version of that, a style that is distinct and offensive to me.
Any modders using AI like this are also modders whos content Ill never download or support. Its pretty simple, I dont want any slop in my games. I dont want to pay for slop in my games. Anyone asking me to do so gets written off.

Better to have an understanding and strong opinion than to just consume whatever the massive ethicless tech giant shovels into the trough.
I won’t use it because it looks like shit, but to each their own.

That‘s funny because I firmly believe they showcased DLSS5 at that time in this state only to cover up news coverage about their Palantir partnership and passionate support for Israel. It was genius.

Well that’s easily disproven by the fact that they boldly put “Nvidia ❤ Palantir ❤ Dell” in the same GTK Keynote. They don’t care about hiding their Palantir partnership because all they see from that partnership are $$$. DLSS5 was showcased because the AI hype is dying down and at this point Nvidia stock lives on the AI hype. Nvidia stock 3 years ago (which was the early stages of the AI hype) was ~$28, now it’s ~$174. We’re about the experience another one of those once in a lifetime economic crashes when the AI hype dies down and Nvidia stock plummets.
