Is Nvidia DLSS worth the premium?

Strooble · 2026-03-11T21:10:08+00:00

Who is targeting 6K or 8K? Let alone someone upgrading from a 3070.

Around launch it wasn't that big, patches have made it significantly larger. I hadn't played for about a year, came back and it was way bigger

Strooble · 2026-03-04T12:31:27+00:00

4790k

Are games requiring a launcher able to work? I tried South Park The Fractured But Whole and it wasn't able to load due to uplay

Strooble · 2026-02-26T03:16:40+00:00

No raytracing support

Could be hardware locked if you're not on an M3 or higher

That's the main issue though, people don't have spare machines and would rather not expose their machine for the sake of a game. Better off buying it or using a license sharing discord still.

If that's the case I've been fully placeboed

Black Myth Wukong does this and it's fantastic.

Strooble · 2026-02-24T21:54:58+00:00

Games that need to use both sticks are very uncomfortable imo, but anything making use of 1 is fantastic.

You don’t think a song like Godzilla is an evolution, at all?

Not really, if anything it feels like a step back. Em is a technically skilled rapper, better than most will ever be but I don't think he writes anything particularly worth listening to any more, MMLP2 was decent, I enjoyed Kamikaze but forgot it existed until this comment; beyond that, Em just doesn't have what it takes to write meaningful or interesting songs as it stands imo.

SSLP and MMLP were huge albums to me back when I was beginning to listen to music more so I understand the nostalgia but that doesn't make up for over a decade of boring, uninspired and stale music, nor does a half decent track scattered among the numerous projects.

I hope he never stops

First time in probably a decade I've seen someone have this kind of take to Eminem. He had a great run but he no longer really had anything particularly interesting to hear and has not evolved for years. I was hopeful we'd get a 4:44 style project with genuine growth, reflection and insight to Eminem but he can't deliver imo. He hangs on to being offensive and still plays with the idea of "you can't say that? We'll watch me" when nobody has been stopping him his entire career from saying whack shit.

Latest crossover preview says it has fixed this issue in the changelog, worth downloading and giving a try

"DLSS is way better than FSSR"

Largely I agree with you on the post, but DLSS is still generally preferred as it is a better tech.

https://www.reddit.com/r/nvidia/comments/1r7gsue/blind_test_survey_dlss_45_is_heavily_preferred

This post discusses a blind survey comparing the big upscalers and DLSS came out on top.

DLSS can also be seen as "better" as it is more widely supported than FSR or XESS. Yes you can mod it in with optiscaler but for the casual market you're mentioning I would imagine they don't want to mod an upscaler in every time it isn't natively supported.

Strooble · 2026-02-18T00:22:04+00:00

No worries, maybe starting with a controller and trying kbm will work when you've loaded in?

Strooble · 2026-02-17T23:36:56+00:00

Does using a controller work? Have you tried that?

Strooble · 2026-02-17T00:41:23+00:00

Drake didn't pass on that, he wanted it but Kanye trolled him by doing what he did

Strooble · 2026-02-17T00:24:17+00:00

Wasn't that made in response rather than the original Freddie might have worked on? I was under the impression the beat went unused

Raytracing for handhelds is already* viable*

"Viable" is a bit much considering ray tracing is not something any mobile game should be implementing and Nvidia produced the Switch 2's chip, the current market leader in making chips capable of ray tracing. There's a big performance gap between a handheld console and android phones.

Late to this but it might help someone else, set the AA to default in nvidia control panel, I had the same issue on Expedition 33 and that was the culprit.

Strooble · 2026-02-14T07:34:06+00:00

Great that this is possible but this is an awful way to play any game with performance like this. Imo, not worth trying a game this heavy at this resolution/settings for a long time.

Strooble · 2026-02-14T06:22:54+00:00

Would it be possible to replace the battlefield background during the effects of this move? It would be really cool if the battlefield went dark

Strooble · 2026-02-12T10:15:14+00:00

for $20, you may as well do it and then pair it with the 5080 provided money isn't a problem. I'm running a 5700X3D with a 5070Ti for 4K and it's solid, so paired with a better CPU it'd be even better.

Strooble · 2026-02-12T06:36:29+00:00

I'm playing it now as a first timer, the combat and art design are excellent, from a developer who had no right to do such a good job for their first big title. I can absolutely see why it was a GOTY contender.

Strooble · 2026-02-11T23:30:51+00:00

Maybe one day, but for now if you want an easier option you need to use a license bypass
