“Well, first of all, they’re completely wrong,” Huang said in response to a question from Tom’s Hardware editor-in-chief Paul Alcorn about the criticism.

“The reason for that is because, as I have explained very carefully, DLSS 5 fuses controllability of the of geometry and textures and everything about the game with generative AI,” Huang continued.

Just a elongated way to say AI slop.

    This makes me even more sure of my decision to get an AMD card as my next GPU (currently I have an RTX 4080 so it’s still a long time until that happens but still).

      Just a reminder that AMD is also just another money hungry corporation that would sell gamers out to AI. Don’t forget that AMD just put a 20% stake of their company and output in a AI partnership with Meta.

      That said, I also bought a 9070 XT a year ago because I didn’t want to directly support Nvidia and their never ending quest to force AI into games, which this kind of at least provided some justification for that as I don’t support AI Only Fans being injected into my games. Steam already has enough of those types of games without direct AI injection.

      Every time I got an AMD card I got burned, so that’s not really an option. Last try was a 5700 XT and oh my god was that a pain. So much so that instead of my usual 4-5 year upgrade cycle I grabbed a 3080 one year later.

      Nowadays DLSS is a must for me, it just looks so much better than TAA. FSR is alright, but not great.

          Meh, I’ve owned an ATI 4870X2, GTX 580, GTX 970, 5700 XT, 3080 and now 5080.

          Also helped out friends with their GPUs, 2070 Super, 6800 XT (which have a really shitty fan curve at stock).

          The 5700 XT had the worst drivers of the bunch. Crashes, stuttering, … AMD managed to fix most issues with time, but not all.

          Nvidia drivers early this year were shit too, but at this point they are great again. I don’t care about the brand, I only care about my PC running well.

        You do know the games themselves generally choose the type of anti-aliasing used right? Your graphics card doesn’t run anti-aliasing ontop of everything else.

          ???

          Of course the game developers choose what to put into their games. Some games have FXAA, TAA, DLSS, FSR and even XeSS.

          With an Nvidia card you can use them all. With AMD you can’t use DLSS.

          Not sure what your last sentence means, of course your GPU runs AA?

      Right there with you. Have a 4080, and only reason I got this one, was because it was cheaper(by a sizable chunk) than the 7900xtx when I got it.

      Dude, that card will survive the bursting AI bubble, world war 3 and then some. You can easily use that card for the next 15 years.
