Moly B. Denum posted:If nvidia is willing to wait for RTX support to be widespread, then I'm happy to wait just as long before getting one of their GPUs again. Personally, I'm just looking for something, anything, on their side to justify their crappy price inflation from last year, which I still haven't forgiven them for maintaining even after the crypto bubble burst. And if they don't bring it with 30xx cards, I am seriously considering to just switch to AMD aftermarket cards and call it a day. CrazyLoon fucked around with this message at 11:00 on Aug 20, 2019 |

https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/news/gamescom-2019-game-ready-driver/ New NV driver brings integer scaling, a low latency option akin to Radeon Anti-Lag, and an improved sharpening filter that no doubt borrows ideas from AMDs CAS.

gently caress. The integer scaling is only for RTX and 16xx cards Which honestly feels a bit bullshit. The 1660 can integer scale but not a 980ti or 1080ti?

Yeah that's kinda bullshit. Intels announcement was the same, they confirmed integer scaling is coming but only for their next gen iGPUs. It might be that the newer architectures support "free" pixel doubling in the display encoder, but the performance cost of a compute-based fallback would be negligible.

Reasons to buy RTX card: * That quake port * Pixel games * Maybe minecraft? * Pretty reflections at hilarious FPS costs  E: Let's not forget that if you buy a fancy enough monitor it might even already be able to do integer scaling if it's fed an input signal that's half of its native resolution.

Most people will never think to enable integer scaling anyway. There are a lot of cool features, but it's kind of hard to sell features people also have to manually enable.jisforjosh posted:"To install, head on over to the GeForce Experience Drivers tab, starting at 6am PT on August 20th."

gently caress GFE for basically the entire time it's ever existed and been pushed.  I've been manually trimming down drivers and swapping the installation folder contents to avoid the wizard-nanny for the last year now, this is the kind of thing we really shouldn't treat as a joke

I could put 128 GB of memory in my machine and not care about TSRs, run all of the game clients at once and not care. Or keep my running apps lean and get by with 16 GB of memory and never have a problem.

I'm thinking of buying an RTX 2080 ti pretty soon. Is there a new generation of video cards coming within the next few months that I should wait for instead? I want to be able to actually get 120 FPS at high/ultra settings on my 1440p ultrawide monitor, and I also want better performance out of NMS VR since I've been playing that a lot. If a better video card isn't coming out within ~3 months or so, what's the best vendor for the RTX 2080 ti? I usually buy from Amazon for the 5% cashback, but return fraud/getting used as new seems to be VERY common according to the reviews, so I'm thinking of going with Newegg or something instead.

I was using GFE primarily for the screenshot tool since it worked on anything and sometimes the filters plus the occasional other feature. Then suddenly it decided that me telling it to never change my in game settings meant to ALWAYS CHANGE MY IN GAME SETTINGS TO NVIDIA "OPTIMIZED" GARBAGE EVERY TIME I RESTART. This issue did not get fixed for at least a couple releases. So on top of the other reasons mentioned I'm never bothering with it again. This was last year on a GTX 970. repiv posted:More Minecraft RTX footage This kind of thing is why I've saved up for the next gen replacement of the 2080 ti. Barring another ridiculous price jump. We'll see.

Is there a way I can make custom resolutions created in nvidia control panel stick around? I have to keep re-creating it after it disappears, not sure if it is after a driver update or maybe some windows updates.

I prefer to keep on my tinfoil hat as a paranoid minimalist on software and stick to the ideal concept of a driver being just the thing that gets my GPU to tell my monitor what color my pixels should be, without all the extra telemetry and "value-add" software I don't need. It's me, I should probably chill out because I really haven't had the time to play games recently anyways--but being invested in computer engineering and system architecture as a career has given me opinions that I have to blurt out in my sleep deprivation Sidesaddle Cavalry fucked around with this message at 18:36 on Aug 20, 2019 |

I'd love have integer scaling for playing something like battlefield which doesn't handle well on my haswell + 970 system at 720p. I've got a 1440p monitor and I tried running the game at a lower resolution and a lower scale but it looked too blurry for my taste. I'd take sharp pixels over that any day. Guess I'll keep an eye out for a 1660ti open box deal at microcenter...

I don't think this is an RTX 2080 Ti Super. The RTX Titan uses the full TU102 GPU and performs within a few percent of the 2080 Ti in games. Even if you goosed up the RAM a little, you're still looking at a very small improvement. If it exists at all, it could be a RTX Titan revision. The people in the market for that GPU are obviously not price conscious and aren't dissuaded by Nvidia releasing a new version every calendar year. In fact, as I've said before, there has been a Titan every year since it was introduced and RTX Titan released in 2018.

I believe you could just use Nvidia Inspector, although the driver framerate cap isn't worth dick to begin with and you really should just use RTSS.

New Nvidia drivers integer scaling is a big improvement when playing 1080p games on a 4K tv, albeit even with a 1660 I rarely have to go down to 1080p to get ~60fps, prefer to just go 1440 and drop a few settings so not sure how much use I'll get out of it. The new sharpen filter in Nvidia Freestyle is nice in that it has a low GPU hit (seemingly around 2% GPU utilization from at least according to afterburner) and looks good, a nice option for the games where reshade won't work (like Shadow of the Tomb Raider in DX12 where its blurry temporal AA really needs it). Still though the list of Freestyle-compatible games is pretty low at least going from my library, is there a recent method to force Freestyle on non-supported games that works? I'm aware of the Ansel compatibility flag hack with Nvidia inspector but that stopped working with newer drivers ages ago.

Huge fps improvement in Apex on my 2070S/3900x at 3440x1440. What wizardry is this new driver? Had some settings cranked down or even set to off to get close to 100 fps (70 when jumping off the dropship), now with almost everything maxed I get 100 when dropping and 120+ on the ground. Is...this what fine wine tastes like?
