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.

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.

Fuck Nvidia

Why should we care? Regular consumers are not going to be able to get their hands on any nvidia products anyway. And also fuck nvidia for being one of the main instigators of this whole AI shitshow in collusion with a fascist US government.

Who cares? I don’t even want companies changing the graphics of old games.

And conveniently bumping up the game’s minimal system requirement from what was more reasonable to straight up requiring at least RTX4090 in terms of both ray tracing compute cost, and hard VRAM requirement, possibly by design.
No wonder Nvidia loves to push this so much lol
Why would anyone care about it anyway, when it was still fundamentally decades old games under all the shiny graphics at this point?

Oh ffs turn it off.
It amazes me that they honestly try to push this as “better”. Q3 has a certain look and feel that was a product of its time. It’s kinda like all those botched 3D model projects for og doom. Just fucking don’t already.

This would be neat if you didn’t lost 90% of your FPS in the process.
TalkingFlower@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
That really depends on the old game and the modder who writes the render that accepts Remix.

Download more?
SlurpingPus@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Unironically did that recently. As in, Mint doesn’t have memory compression enabled out of the box.
RightHandOfIkaros@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Cloud RAM. Just download more RAM.
SlurpingPus@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Good news! Quake 3 doesn’t need 16 GB of ram.
fishy@lemmy.today 2 weeks ago
It might with HD mods and ray tracing.
