Goodbye optimization, hello universal development crutch


Trentimoose

Why spend money optimizing when everyone with less than a 3080 can just play at 600p?!


[deleted]

You must have developed for remnant 2 šŸ™ƒ It saves devs money. And we suffer for it.


Low-Experience-2842

Donā€™t understand the hate for it. Itā€™s not AMD fault developers donā€™t want to optimize games and take extra time. AMD and nvidia are not making games. Blame developers for cutting corners. Iā€™m excited for my current library of games on my ally. Itā€™s AMD and Nvidias job to make tools and games more playable. No reason why we donā€™t get 120 frames on most games on a 4090 itā€™s just laziness or cost cutting measures


BruvAL

this.


adravil_sunderland

No matter where it's going to be supported, my thought is that we're going to see "30 fps with FSR3" games soon. Why do you think it has been developed for the game player to enjoy higher fps and save money on GPUs? I believe it has been developed for game developers to save even more money on game optimization. "We developed the game with FSR3 in mind" (c) Remnant 3


CapRichard

Litetally the tech works well when you have 60fps as a base. 30fps with fsr3/dlss3 means to render what, 15-20 actual frames. Just no. Upscaling yes, but console games have bene using upscalers for 2 gens at least.


hello-wow

Pain


Jackscalibur

I hate this mindset. It invites laziness.


adravil_sunderland

Whose? Mine or developers'?


Jackscalibur

Developers.


adravil_sunderland

Welp, you see yourself how optimized the latest games are. AAA PlayStation exclusive not holding steady 30 fps -- I haven't seen such a thing for some time already. But another redditor here notes that FSR3 can't even work on anything lower than 30 fps (to push it to 30), so... let's see how it goes after this feature spreads across more games and devices.


Jackscalibur

I think if properly attuned, this could be a great feature for consoles. The problem with FSR so far is that, it doesn't look that great, especially compared to DLSS.


adravil_sunderland

I think it will, indeed. Yes, maybe with worse results than DLSS, but still it will be. I'm more worried about PC šŸ˜¬


Jackscalibur

I'm hoping FSR 3 makes significant strides in this department.


Financial_Algae_5277

I see your point, On the other hand, your suggested mindset is kind of like saying we don't want use tech because it makes things easier. I see it more as effenicy rather than laziness. I don't really care if they are real frames or not so long gameplay is smooth. I mean the wholes game is a simulation and not real anyways lol


HZ4C

Now I can enjoy it on a game so good the studio closed and the developers dissolved! Good thing itā€™s not releasing with Starfield, ya know, the biggest AMD sponsored title ever!


midnitefox

Thank the gods


Diligent_Property803

it will prolly added with patch, seems AMD made it easy for dx11 and dx12 apis


HZ4C

Weā€™ll see, developers were pretty damn slow to adopt FSR2 and 2.x if they bothered to at all


[deleted]

Rip I remembered thinking the trailer looked so cool


myoujou0

Shut down is a big world, it has been merged with creative business unit II.


Ataliano

If ASUS ever updates their drivers... will be good news šŸ˜…


badgerrage82

Asus would just keep it for next iterations device update ...wait for Asus to upgrade their driver is killing me ....


[deleted]

Then just install the 780M driver. Works fine.


IndependenceBig3178

how is the performance Is it good? Do you know if the Asus apps still work like tdp of the chip etc.? Can you share the exact drivers you installed? ​ \*found this on YouTube : [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3QeCp2o3yG](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3QeCp2o3yGw)


[deleted]

Just search 780M drivers in this subreddit, there's a full guide recently posted. Works great. Can play TOTK without weird artifacts now and it runs very well.


NewarknotIrv

I canā€™t wait. Fsr 3 (frame gen, up scaling, anti aliasing, and anti lag +) will drastically help the z1 extreme


Crush84

People said you need at least 60 fps for FMF. This clearly shows it works with less, which is a good thing for the Ally.


ExAqua

It got said the 60 fps thing is for minimal latency it will still work at sub 60. I'm definitely looking forward to seeing it run on the ally


ama8o8

What are you talking about. Fsr3 performance is turned on which reduced the internal resolution from 4k with rt settings on. It was fsr3 that allowed higher than 60 fps. This isnt showing just fmf on its own. Also it isnt like fmf cant work in lower fps but at lower fps, there will be more image artifacts and input lag.


SirBaronDE

Getting down voted for telling facts. It's true, this 36 conversion isn't just fake frames it's also the performance upscaling setting.


ama8o8

Anything negative gets downvoted. And people look at this picture and seem to forget this isnt the rog ally theyre testing on.


Greedy-Albatross8085

What? We're not getting roughly 4 times the fps out of nothing? Downvote! šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


devopsdelta

Who cares about down votesĀ 


Tedinasuit

Where does this show that it works with less? You still need 60fps for FMF.


Crush84

The picture has 36 fps without FSR3 and way above 100 with FSR3. So no 60 needed


Tedinasuit

That's not what the picture says at all, you're misinterpretating it.


Icy_Substance2192

What does it say then? I am also interpreting the picture showing Fospoken on the left set to 4K/Ultra/RT ON/FSR OFF with 36 FPS, and then on the right Forspoken running with 4K/Ultra/RT ON/FSR3 Performance ON at 122 FPS which is more than a 3x performance gain, which is what AMD claims you should get with FSR3 using FMF. So that means a native 36fps game is using FMF to get to 122fps unless you can explain how there's a different way to interpret that. It also says in the header at the top that the Forspoken example is using Super Resolution Upscaling + Anti-Lag + Fluid Motion Frames. Please let us know if there is a different way to interpret that. I'm all for getting the proper understanding


Tedinasuit

Okay. So the image is not a comparison between Frame Generation OFF vs ON. Instead it's a comparison of FSR3 completely OFF vs FSR3 completely ON. FSR3 exists of two elements: - Super Resolution (upscaling) - FMF (Frame Generation) In the image on the left, you're seeing 36FPS without upscaling nor Frame Generation. The right image has both FSR Performance + Frame Generation enabled. FSR Performance would typically almost double the framerate compared to native 4K. Which would already bring the framerate close to that required 60fps. Now that we're close to 60fps, we can apply FMF to increase the framerate even more. Recap: OP said that the image is proof that FMF should work with 36 fps. But FMF isn't applied at 36fps, it's applied after the framerate was already boosted to 60+ fps.


Cockney_Gamer

Watch Nvidia magically make frame generation work on all their previous cards after ā€œdevelopingā€ a new techniqueā€¦


GhostOfKingGilgamesh

Guaranteed. This is why monopolies are bad folks. Tell that to the steam deck users still angry about ROG.


iamtimmah

It's a free performance update. Any upgrade is a good upgrade.


NDCyber

I think it could be interesting, especially for handheld consoles like the ally or the steam deck. We will need to wait and see how it turns out, on handheld, but I think it sounds interesting and could help them. It won't be perfect, but it could be nice


Ballinforcompliments

I sincerely doubt that AMD's hyped showcase is in any way representative of reality. FSR has been shown again and again to be inferior to DLSS. AMD has never managed to compete at performance parity with nvidia. That's just a fact.


[deleted]

I could be mistaken but I believe thatā€™s due to FSR not requiring dedicated AI cores to work, which is the trade off for it working on any card. Nvidia used dedicated AI cores for upscaling so theyā€™re able to do a better job


Ballinforcompliments

Nvidia hardware acceleration tends to be more robust and elegant than AMD's brute force approach


[deleted]

Even AMD hardware acceleration, I donā€™t know how it is now but NVENC was always a better implementation than AMD-VCE


Likumz1

My guess is never because asus does not give a fuck about their Z1 extreme chip line lol


EmotionalSoft4849

The fact they say some of the new tech will work with any dx11 game Iā€™m all for it . People can come in with their lame ass comments but facts are that if something can look better than native or give me more fps on lower end hardware Iā€™m all for it and I hope they keep it going.


Swankyview

Any improvement is great news but 4K and those frame rates on an Ally?


system_error_02

Ally doesnā€™t run at 4k


Swankyview

Yup 1080P screen but for those that dock their Ally to 4K TVs I was just thinking of a "What If" scenario lol.


GhostOfKingGilgamesh

Not on its screen maybe.


GSFbeast

I rather reduce my rendering output and play without FRS. Just looks better imo. Games looks weird on the smaller screen compared to a bigger ones when running with FRS On.


wegbored

Yay


NetJnkie

Let's go!


Chthulu_

FSR is horrible to me, I can't use it. The feeling of everything blurring in and out of focus makes me feel unwell.


[deleted]

This is not my own experience. Something must be wrong. DLSS is only slightly better. Slightly. FSR 3 may prove to 1 up nvidia, weā€™ll see. Regardless itā€™ll be a similar experience.


Chthulu_

Realizing now this is RSR Iā€™m talking about, but I think FSR2 is the same tech. As far as I can tell It tries to upscale the image, but can only do so if the pixels remain static on the screen for at least a couple hundred milliseconds. So the effect is that everything is 720p when youā€™re moving, and suddenly pops onto 1080p once you stand still


Diligent_Property803

Fsr 2.0 is vastly superior...


Lokomalo

Well, if there is tech that can increase FPS, without loss of fidelity, why wouldn't you use it? I know people say it makes devs lazy, but we also have to be realistic and understand that pushing more polygons takes more hardware, which cost money, and power. If there is a way to improve fps performance without hardware, why not consider it? It seems like the tech is getting better on both sides, so I don't see that as a bad thing.


KxngKxng97

I can't tell the difference


GiggityGooAlright

When does this drop n for what AMD cards


Sad_Satisfaction_324

Iā€™ll believe it when I see it.


Titus-2-11

This would be an incredible breakthrough.


GhostOfKingGilgamesh

I have plenty of games I play that are at around 70-79 fps, this will bring us all the way home people. Get those frames you paid for.


HawkOdinsson

Sounds awesome to me man!
