When it comes to image quality, the latest FSR 4 iteration of its upscaling technology definitely made AMD highly competitive with Nvidia’s DLSS. But game support? Not so much. Which is why the OptiScaler tool is so handy. And so vexing when it comes to AMD itself. OptiScaler has been updated so that it now…
I remember the first time I looked into a kaleidoscope as a kid, it was so strange and disarming to me that I threw up a little bit, and then it was confiscated by my parents. Sad, but probably for the best. It’s a memory that I pushed so far down I’d almost entirely forgotten…
All of us must do our bit to counteract the effects of climate change, no matter how small. This, I firmly believe. Meta appears to be taking this principle to heart, as it’s proudly announced that it’s using its own mix of AI-optimised, lower-carbon, “green concrete” to build the floor of its Rosemount data center….
Nintendo has taken a break from dispatching Sardaukar detachments against people looking askance at its copyright to cast a couple of young actors in the upcoming Legend of Zelda movie. Ladies and gentlemen, your Zelda will be played by Bo Bragason, and your Link will be portrayed by Benjamin Evan Ainsworth. I don’t know who…
The first side quest you’re likely to run into in Destiny 2: The Edge of Fate, Vessel of the Nine, is all about none other than Lodi and helping him get to grips with his situation. It’s a brilliant story, but the actual quest steps leave a lot to be desired. Specifically, the objective markers…
Julian LeFay, a programmer and chief engineer at Bethesda until his departure in 1998, is stepping back from game development and his current project, The Wayward Realms. LeFay has been suffering from cancer for several years and, per CEO of OnceLost Games Ted Peterson, has made the decision “for his health and to live his…
Among all the hubbub surrounding Nvidia’s announcement that it was filing applications to sell H20 GPUs to China once more, it would be easy to forget that it’s not the only company making desirable high-end AI hardware. It looks like AMD wants to get in on the Chinese summer AI GPU bonanza, too. That’s according…
Some Minisforum mini PCs are being recalled due to incorrect capacitor materials, but let me ease at least some people’s concerns right away. This problem doesn’t apply to Minisforum mini gaming PCs. It applies only to a specific batch of NAB9 mini PCs. Minisforum explains (via VideoCardz) that the “potential issue” affects “some NAB 9…
Acquiring the Graviton Spike exotic hand cannon in Destiny 2‘s new The Edge of Fate expansion is likely the first thing you’ll want to do after you complete the main campaign. For one, you can’t actually do it before, but grabbing the fancy new destination exotic has always been a nice post-campaign cooldown, solving a…
Image quality perception, I’ve often found, varies massively from person to person. Some can’t tell the difference between a game running with DLSS set to Performance and one running at Native, while others can easily ignore the blurriness of a poor TAA implementation while their peers are busy climbing the walls. Intel’s new tool, however,…
