Its really time for some competition. Either AMD or some chinese company like 'more threads' need to speed up and get something on the market to break the Nvidia dominance. Nvidia is showing already some nasty typical evil behavior that has to be stopped. I know not easy with fully booked partners at Samsung/tmct/etc

https://tinygrad.org is trying something around this; currently working on getting AMD GPUs to get on MLPerf. Info on what they're up to / why is mostly here - https://geohot.github.io/blog/jekyll/update/2023/05/24/the-t... - though there are some older interesting bits too.

AMD / Intel should be throwing them 10's or 100's millions (or jsut straight up human hours of work) to make that work. If / when it does it would be 10's or 100's of billions of (additional) market cap for them.

So why doesn't AMD invest more in quality software? Everybody knows it's holding them back. Right now a tiny corporation has to jump through hoops to do work they could have done at any point in the last decade. Why don't they pull a great team together and just do the work, if the pay off is that big?

They are. FSR tests side by side with DLSS most people can’t tell the difference or pick FSR. Then you tell them which is which and they turn around and say DLSS is better. People are just bias to Nvidia.

They haven’t had gfx card driver issues in years now and people still say “oh I don’t want AMD cos their drivers don’t work”.

FSR is vastly inferior to dlss, not sure what you're talking about, even xless from Intel is better.

As for driver: https://www.tomshardware.com/news/adrenalin-23-7-2-marks-ret...

I’m not sure what you’re talking about because side by side testing people can’t tell the difference with the exception of racing games (tho that’s screwed on DLSS 3 too anyway) and if you take screen grabs to look at. So fact is. All the compute in Nvidia cards is a gimmick. If you disagree then you’re wrong. The competitive edge of DLSS is gone.

1 bad driver update is not indicative of anything. Nvidia has had bad driver updates but you’re not shutting all over them. And running Nvidias own drivers on linux is still a pain point.

(And don’t try claim I’m an AMD fanboy when I don’t even have any AMD stuff at the moment. It’s all Intel/Nvidia)

>>throwa+V14
FSR is pretty bad, like it's not even close to DLSS, no one like fsr. And saying that there is not difference is wrong, just play a game with fsr 2.1 and dlss 2 or 3 please.

>>Thaxll+6Z4
So you drank the Nvidia coolaid. That’s fine.

>>throwa+z35
I have an AMD card, 6800xt, really good card but fsr is not there yet.

>>Thaxll+3a5
I have a 4070. FSR/DLSS on quality looks the same. It’s only noticeable in Forza Horizon. If you notice it in a non racing game then you’re looking for the differences.
