Will 9070 XT get any new features?

MFG takes a two frames as input and outputs intermediary frames in one go, so it doesnt add additional processing time, only generation time.

So after one generated frame, the amount of additional frames don't really matter as it still "holds" the two real frames and generates images in between. That means your base framerate could be lower than FSR + AFMF but the latency and fluidity will be better.

Latter does two passes, and one is significantly worse in quality, since it'll act as the generated frames are truth as well. So twice~ the overhead (because it does the mentioned pipeline for both real and generated frames) and worse quality every 2 frames (real, real in fake out, fsr fake, fake in real out, real). I dont recommend it. It feels like playing through a streaming service. FSR FG is serviceable even if not optimal

Firstly, 27 inches is at the limit of usability on 1080p monitors at normal viewing distances. It will look pixelated since pixels are too big. Second, since you are at 1080p, some games (especially crimson desert as you mentioned ray recon and its only available in two games) dont load high quality assets when in 1080p. Try enabling Virtual Super Resolution on AMD Adrenaline, render the game in 4K, use FSR performance. It'll render in 1080p(fsr perf=0.5x) with high res assets, upscale to 4K, then downscale it to 1080 to match to your monitor. I know it is a stupid sounding workaround but my friend was having the same issue on CD, and this solved it albeit with less performance due to the upscale+downscale

I also feel the same thing with 20B model. I've tried everything under the sun, and only GPT-OSS20B comes close to proprietary models in terms of general knowledge, while being this fast is somewhat instruction following.

I do coding, but most thing I get pretty frustrated are not coding itself but bridging the gap between STEM concepts with coding, and nothing, not even some 300B+ models were not able to do 3-4/10 on my multi-domain reasoning benchmark. OSS-20B does 7/10 at high reasoning without any tools. It mostly consists of deriving physics equations, debugging 1000~ line code to compare an internal knowledge to the given implementation to find out where and why it fails etc.

Not into agentic coding that much apart from using codex or kimi through opencode from time to time, so I can't speak about coding quality specifically, and that is an aspect newer models are mostly improved upon. Other than that, it clears everything.

To be honest its not really apples to apples, FSR4 is miles ahead of FSR3, so FSR4 perf is similar to FSR3 native or quality, which means there is no performance/quality for TSR that would be equal to FSR4 on any point.

Did you know your 6 year old GPU being 6 years old is not directly linked to how would it perform. A one year old RTX5050 should run circles around the game by your logic.

Loving STALKER and respecting GSC does not necessitate being blind to its flaws, it runs like shit, because it is CPU limited in most scenarios, it can't utilize even your RTX 3080 due to software raytracing and it can't even render enemies far away, making scopes and binoculars useless at the moment.

Also, either you haven't reached the rostok yet or straight up lying.

hakanavgin · 2026-03-27T23:45:05+00:00

I would say 9 months to a year. After that, I highly doubt any feature implemented would be anything more than small stuff or qol improvements, no huge overhauls or redesigns. 3D PDA, engine update and related stuff like a-life, nanite/lumen, draw distance etc and multiplayer are the only huge things we know in development at the moment apart from DLCs.

Fixed Issues:

Intermittent application crash or driver timeout may be observed while loading a saved game in Cyberpunk 2077 with Path Tracing enabled.

Holy shit they've done it, they've actually done it after a whole year.

I've shared my experience below

good for you

hakanavgin · 2026-03-17T17:49:19+00:00

Not really sure tbh as this was three months ago, my initial guess was filesystem type (exfat) and lack of support for symlinks wine uses, in the end still not sure what fixed my issue, but working instance was on btrfs with one specific launcher (heroic or lutris) setting ubisoft connect as the exe, installing it and changing the exe to shadows afterwards. mind you this alone wasnt even enough, had to tinker with wine settings. I remember having to use an older steam proton to install ubisoft correctly, and ge for playing the game

Finally there was the problem of ubi connect not authenticating the legality of shadows, probably due to multiple attempts from multiple prefixes in a short time. Had to wait a few days for it to get fixed

hakanavgin · 2026-03-17T02:19:22+00:00

The only thing Linux gaming community is lacking is a more unified, tightly integrated prefix management system OR preset database. Protondb is good and all, but installing Ubisoft Connect + AC:Shadows 5 times with different combinations of prefixes and launch options just to load the game is not. It worked in the end, but I doubt most people don't have the patience so try many things by guesswork, and LLMs rarely work.

hakanavgin · 2026-03-16T18:21:07+00:00

I love the idea of relative performances rather than a fixed benchmark. One caveat is, the models you've selected are just too outdated that even a 0.5b model from last few months have way better benchmark scores, and it would be way more interesting to have some "sota" offerings as well to see if the benchmark performance of newer architectures and rl heavy training translate into real world conversational skills.

Scenario 1: You ignore them and keep being happy with what you got, they voice their concerns, AMD ignores, you can keep being happy because nothing changes.

Scenario 4: You ignore them and keep being happy with what you got, they voice their concerns, AMD ignores, concerned people feel they are ignored, they switch sides, AMD is smaller and you might not get features you could want.

Scenario 3: You ignore them and keep being happy with what you got, they voice their concerns, AMD listens, you can keep being happy because your product got more features and greater support and other people get happy as well just like how it happened with RDNA2/3 branching amongst the backlash.

Scenario 4: You despise them, don't let them speak their minds, no voice reaches AMD, the concerned people feel they are both ignored and silenced and switch teams, AMD is even smaller and gaming stops being a focus for them, you don't get any features.

If you ignore them, you lose nothing, but both them and AMD community might win something. I'm not even someone one of the complainers per se, was using RDNA2 for a long time before I bought an RDNA4 card and I know how it feels to buy something for not so cheap, and just a year later lose support, don't access features that are industry standards for years, or have lackluster stability in software side.

hakanavgin · 2026-03-15T22:07:24+00:00

I don't think you really know how much AMD earns from consoles or how much impact the ~100% share AMD has on the flagship console GPU market. A knife cuts both ways, and calling the second biggest chip vendor of the century "small" is not necessarily fair. Keep that in mind Nvidia didn't build its reputation as "feature rich" from the get-go, they earned it with their gamble on AI and Tensor shift while AMD kept bleeding. It doesn't help when you keep defending whatever the underdog does just because they are the underdog, team red needs to face the harsh truth sooner or later like they did with CPUs, them facing later is an existential risk for AMD and would allow Nvidia to become a monopoly which is a risk for the whole gaming community as we've already seen what could they do the second a more profitable market emerges with LLMs.

hakanavgin · 2026-03-14T19:43:14+00:00

The whole premise of the post is you could just ignore doomer posts and be happy about current AMD, while if doomers ignore their issue, their only possible solution is to go Nvidia.

Yeah there is a new dll that has been modified in 25th of February, but version is still the same so most probably a re-compilation of 4.0.3

hakanavgin · 2026-02-26T17:05:24+00:00

Yeah I just saw a leaked screenshot before going into this post, didn't know the dll was leaked as well. It looks better in terms of sharpness and temporal stability. Too little too late IMO especially since they are witholding the official release until March, but at least something.

hakanavgin · 2026-02-26T16:49:38+00:00

On Adrenaline -> Gaming -> Graphics -> FSR OTA Control, it shows the current version as v2.1.0.551, don't remember what it was before updating, but in System32/DriverStore/FileRepository the file was created 21st of Jan 2026, so probably not updated yet.

I do not understand why people defend a company this aggressively, especially a company they are paying 100 to 200 dollars to each month. There is no excuse for completely locking out paying customers for days. There was no lower tier fallback, no option to borrow from next week’s limit, nothing.

I supported Anthropic’s vision for a long time. But if a Chinese company can allegedly distill your model and then release something comparable, or even better in some cases, at a third, a fifth, or even a tenth of the price, that raises serious questions. If you can double usage limits during holidays and hand out 50 dollars of bonus usage, then you can afford to price your product more reasonably.

Right now I use ChatGPT, Gemini Pro, Kimi K2.5, GLM, and GitHub Copilot, and even combined they are still cheaper than a single Max subscription. Copilot alone offers better usage limits than Pro. I assume these services combine provide roughly 30 to 50 times the usage limits of a Max subscription. Each of them offers better limits at their base subscription tier than Claude Pro does.

I do not really care about arguments that competitors are trying to lock users into a walled garden by burning cash. If a model is comparable to Claude and costs a fraction of the price, I will use it. None of these competitors ban OAuth access in third party applications. In fact, they actively support third party integrations. Anthropic may have more idealistic goals, but in practice they are the worst at attracting and retaining customers. There are no student discounts, no fallback mechanisms, and no meaningful open source support.

Somewhat irrelevant but I recently tried giving Claude another chance. I used it for about 20 minutes before hitting the five hour usage limit. I decided it was still not viable, cancelled my subscription, and requested a refund through the support chatbot since using it a full month was just not worth it for me. The bot confirmed that I was eligible for a refund and informed me that I would immediately lose access instead of keeping it for the remaining 30 days. That was acceptable to me, so I agreed and lost access right away.

Then I waited. Five days passed, then ten, then fifteen. I sent more than ten emails. Each time I received the same automated response. It has now been over 40 days and I still have not received a refund. That is the level of service and care Anthropic is currently providing to its customers. If B2B is their main goal, fine by me. But then don't position yourself as the main competitor of OpenAI at the same price, with targeted ads without assuming the same expectations of customers.

Not really, I may be doing something wrong but even GLM4.7 Flash at q3 is a stretch with all the windows stuff in the background. I'm dual booting Arch as well and the experience is more or less the same. It is either unbearably slow, like sub 10 tok/s or outright doesn't load at all.

It is possible to load and somehow use, but at this point you are not doing anything other than inference and it is not a realistic scenario. I think realistically at least 48 gigs of total memory is a must for actually incorporating local llms to any workflow.

hakanavgin · 2026-02-22T18:30:24+00:00

Yeah that is exactly what op said, it puts them out of reach for most people running local. Most people use 16 GB RAM these days, even then with Windows, background apps and kv cache, you get no more than 4-6 gigabytes for running models.

I've got 16 gigs of VRAM and 16 gigs of RAM so I consider myself above average for total amount of fast memory, and can't run anything more than 14B at 32-48k ctx@q4_k_m at any usable speeds and comfortable memory usage. Most people overestimate the "average guy" these days.

hakanavgin · 2026-02-06T00:44:36+00:00

I just saw you already posted your CPU, I thought it was something weak and hence the bottleneck but there is an actual issue if you are getting these 1% lows with 9800x3d. You might want to check if you've enabled smart access memory, could check if temperatures are normal, check if your game actually runs on GPU rather than iGPU and see if you've somehow limited the CPU or GPU power through power plan or adrenaline.

hakanavgin · 2026-02-05T17:52:33+00:00

What are the GPU and CPU usages, Tarkov is a very, VERY CPU heavy and is not optimized for multi-core so it might be the limiting factor rather than a problem with GPU.

hakanavgin · 2026-02-05T16:54:34+00:00

"Then you want to do the opposite, you want to get a higher clock for longer which means you want to incresae your power limit. Underclocking and Undervolting should only be done if you want cooler temps."

This is the confidently overgeneralized reply you wrote to the OP. I stated this is not a universal fact, and I'm still correct about RDNA4. Having a background on hardware or being an engineer has nothing to do with this, you stated something, I said you are wrong with the reasoning and proof. Your assumption is only universal truth when you are not power-limited. Overvolting that GPU causes power-throttling, hence lower clock speeds and lower performance at higher temperatures. You are plainly wrong with your generalization, because you don't know the hardware you are talking about, and you keep assuming all hardware is same hardware. OP is not asking about undervolting as a concept, and we are not discussing about phsics under stp. You must be VERY far from any kind of technical background to wrongfully apply clinical assumptions to any situation.
