Support NeoGAF

[Gamer79]

I hear a ton of people giving it a ton of Shit but I honestly do not know why. My system is mid-higher tier and I love to use it. I love to see the Sexy Ray traced visuals (for the few games that do it right) and all the bells and whistles. In single player games as long as I get hit around that 60fps mark, I am good. The technology is not perfect and there are the rare occasions where I will notice artifacting or frame stutter but very seldom. Some will argue about input delay but I just do not feel it. I could see where if you played competitive multiplayer it could become a problem but most do not.

Thoughts, Do you use it? Do you hate it? Do you not have the option?

 

[Gaiff]

I like it most of the time. Don’t care about MFG.

 

[SHA]

On consoles definitely, whatever it takes to make 100+ fps games on consoles.

 

[Black_Stride]

DLSS to ~90 - 100fps and im all good.
I dont need to use FrameGen.............................yet.

 

[Mister Wolf]

Yes. I game on PC with a controller. Once I can hit 60 - 70fps native then frame gen comes on.

Can those under powered things even reach the base frame rate to make FG viable?

 

[Celcius]

my 3090 can't do it
I wouldn't use it if I could though. Upscaling via DLSS and DLAA is what interests me.

 

[FingerBang]

On some games it's absolutely dogshit (Jedi Survivor) and I'm not turning it on. On others, it's a good way to max out the refresh rate of my screen, either 120hz for the TV or the 165 for my desktop. If I were to get a 240 or 480 screen, I'd probably use it more often.

It's good tech, but only useful when the starting res is already high

 

[Holammer]

I use Lossless Scaling all the time for emulation. Soon I'll be able to use the big boy pants DLSS stuff, when I order the 5080.

I think it comes down to the game and your monitor.

If its been implemented properly AND you have a monitor that can shoot past 144hz - then yes.

At 120 and under, you're mostly not gonna enjoy the input lag. If I had a 240Hz monitor, id always use it.

 

[kevboard]

no, because I have an RTX3060ti, and the only option would be FSR Frame Gen.

sadly most games still tie the frame generation method to the super resolution method, meaning I would need to use FSR super resolution, which is horrible and destroys image quality.

 

[Rentahamster]

In some cases it's great. In other cases, not so great. I don't see why some people have to be so black and white about it. Like any tool, it has its own best use cases.

You don't get mad at a screwdriver because it's a shitty tool to eat soup with.

 

[Lootlord]

Well, no pathtracing without framegen, so yes
With base fps above 60 it's usually fine.
Cyberpunk plays fine with PT, DLSS quality from 1440P with FG mostly capped at 138 FPS (144Hz display, reflex cap).

 

[Lokaum D+]

its not hard to understand that frame gen is not real frames, you ll never get the same input of real frames, its the same thing that buying a weak ass car that goes to 60mph and in the velocimeter its marking 120mph, its a waste of money, we need to go back to raw power.

 

[Magic Carpet]

I only have a measly RTX 4070 the answer is a NO.
I've noticed with CP77 frame gen with DLSS 4, if I turn off the reflex low latency it's much much better.
Lag with controllers is almost bearable.

I noticed that in Jedi Survivor that if you run the game in Borderless Windowed with in game HDR on it looks awful.
You can either run the game in BW with HDR off in game but on in Windows or full screen with HDR on and all the shit goes away.

That made it a much better experience.
No idea if that helps you but it cleaned up the artifacts so much.

Thanks, I'll see if that fixes it. It was really awful when I tried it, there were artifacts everywhere

 

[Mhmmm 2077]

No, thank you. As long as I will be able to avoid it, I will. And when the time comes that it will be forced always on (just like TAA and Ray Tracing lately, it will happen eventually), I will finally go through my backlog and stop giving a shit about mediocre recent releases.
