Now I want more space where I live and fill it with old computers.

Sorry, this is unrelated, but would there be any way to squeeze out more details from grainy low-res videos from the new algorithm? I suppose you need to know the direction the camera is moving, but perhaps the video itself has enough information about camera-shake or movement. That would be fascinating, but probably not possible. Anyway, looking forward to an experimental DLSS-based VLC plug-in around 2030 or so, hopefully.

That's just asking for a high number of RMA's if you ask me. Some people are less careful with their electronics than others.

Der Shovel posted:Someone in Sweden called up Proshop.se, the Swedish branch of a pan-european large vendor. I, like many others, ordered from them yesterday. Their website was giving a green light for almost an hour after the GeForce launch, saying their stock arriving on 17.9. was still good, and they were getting enough cards from the manufacturers to be able to deliver by next week. Then slightly after 17:00 the website started saying they were out of stock, so all good, right? Nope!

I wonder if Nvidia has produced more than a thousand cards in total. Founder's Edition, more like Limited Edition.

It was previously like a 50% chance that I’d have to turn my primary monitor off and on again, and then rearrange all of my windows, every time I started a game.

Stupid question: Is DLSS going to be great for all titles or mostly for action games? I wonder what happens if you render a strategy game like Civilization at a lower resolution and basically have to stare at an upscaled lower-res map, while the little units may look better but are forgettable. Just a thought.

Strange how the new AMD cards use so much power to accelerate YouTube videos. I often have one running in the background so this matters to me. Otherwise they look great. Screw RT for now. https://www.computerbase.de/2020-11/amd-radeon-rx-6800-xt-test/4/#abschnitt_leistungsaufnahme_desktop_youtube_und_spiele

I just undervolted my 1060 too and 3D games like Overwatch, Hitman 2 and Furmark worked better. Hearthstone on the other hand is very sluggish now, as the card refuses to raise clocks while it's running. I wonder if that is a known problem.

This little dramatic interlude is more interesting than the usual discussion about barely-existant cards anyway.

Since my chances of getting an affordable card are zero I don't follow their development as closely as I used to, but when AMD introduced FidelityFX lately I thought it would have been better to have dynamic resolution as well and be able to switch res on the fly, depending on how much the card is strained. Some titles already have that and I think there is something by AMD themselves where it looks at mouse movement and the res get down depending on that, which was somewhat underwhelming. Was dynamic res ever in the cards, or is that a whole other thing? Feel free to disregard, it's just idle speculation. :-)

Just a few observations about my new card, don't mind me. Bought a 6700 XT Red Devil about four weeks ago. This was the first "really good" (by my standards) graphics card I own as my previous ones were a NV1060, a NV 750 and a NV550 bought in 2011 or so. Paid 666 Euros on a sale which I thought went well with the card's name. Now its 578 Euros and I feel a bit of regret though. I have a very quiet desktop and now that the RD has replaced the 1060, the card's fan as well as the CPU fan are getting slightly louder than before. The card is at 8 Watts when idle, but anything with 3D acceleration takes it to 35 Watts which is a lot compared to the quiet and economical 1060 (this seemingly includes launchers and a lot of tools). Multi monitoring is also not as smooth, as the memory is then always clocked at max as AMD handles this differently than NVidia. There are ways to fiddle with tools and custom resolutions but I wasn't successful so far bringing it down. The performance however is very, very good. I can play Hitman smoothly in 1440p and that is all I want. I kinda feel like one of these old men who can finally afford a sports car when they barely drive anymore though. Not a bad product but I should have waited for the prices for the 360 TI to go down a little. Another thing I really like about the card is the drivers that give you lots of details. Hail the Red Devil. lllllllllllllllllll fucked around with this message at 09:12 on May 23, 2022 |

Will try this asap. Thank you!

Today I learned by pure accident that my 6700XT will happily clock down its memory if I change framerate from 144 to 120 on my 1440p screen. I can even have two displays like this and it will clockdown (this was not possible before). At 144fps however it insists on a memory clock of 2k mhz (which will use 36W and temp goes up). I appreciate learning something new but with NV cards you barely know they are there.

So it looks like the AMD drivers don't play nice with Libre Office, causing it to crash every now and then. You can change LO to software only rendering though. Took me a while to figure that out. Thanks (again) AMD.
