WTF is that video... Dude bacically announces that if you are so peasant that you can't get a game running at native 1080p 60fps then you shouldn't even bother playing. Such elitist bullshit on top of the hypocrisy.
yeah imagine having a "gotcha moment" after a midrange card at its time that costed 400 bucks back in july 2019 fails to deliver a good ray tracing experience 4 years later. here it is, 4 years after, "AS WE SAID RAY TRACING IS OBSOLETE FOR THESE GPUS!!! MIGHT AS WELL GET AN AMD CARD! YOU SHOULD'VE GOTTEN AN AMD CARD AS WE SUGGESTED" all the experiences you had those 4 years does not matter, apparently.
having 4 years of ray tracing goodness on such a card is ANYTHING but great. You can pretty much play any ray traced titles at respectable image quality at 1440p/dlss with 40+ FPS between games that is released in 2019 and 2022. somehow the past experiences do not matter. somehow 2060 super should've lasted with meaningfull ray tracing experience for... HOW MANY YEARS?? like what did they expect it to last forever? last 5+ years? its not even a 70 tier card. of course it will falter after 3-4 years. it played ray tracing in games like cyberpunk, doom eternal, spiderman, metro exodus enhanced, quake, half life, crysis, control and many more. if you think all of these were not worth the price of a 3-4 years of good experience, I don't know what kind of a delusional world they're in. I'm not even delving into the goodies 2060 super provided to its user in this 4 year span (and will keep being revelant for the future) with reflex, DLDSR and DLSS itself.
what is funnier that 1080p dlss quality provides native 1080p taa-like image clarity and image quality. they're pretty on par.
yet he somehow makes it sound like native 1080p taa is this pristine, clean presentation whereas dlss quality makes it muddy. quite disingenuous, and pretty disgusting. here's proof
1080p dlss quality is NOT shitty because it is upscaling from 720p. it is shitty because
it is upscaling to 1080p. it is as good as 1080p can be. nothing more, nothing less. if he wants to shit on 1080p dlss quality, HE MUST shit on the native 1080p taa to begin with. because that is what native 1080p users will have to play with. and if he thinks 1080p dlss quality looks like shit, he should openly admit 1080p taa itself is shit and maybe call out devs on that? yet I never heard any of them saying "this is a 1080p card but don't buy it. because 1080p is shitty."
To be fair, 1080p users themselves also fall to the same pitfall. it is AS SOFT AS 1080p native taa is IN MOST CASES. DLSS at %67 scaling will provide native-TAA matching image clarity in all resolutions unless developer botched the upscaling implementation. yet people enable it, look at it "oh it looks like shit", turn it off and go back to native 1080p taa that also looks like shit, but they psychologically feel more secure because they think they're not rendering at 720p and even if there's a softness to the image, at least they will sleep sound knowing that they didn't play the game at supposed 720p. this is a huge problem and even caused practically a false perception that dlss is horrible at 1080p (it is not). if you just take notice, 1080p native taa is also horrible. 1080p dlss quality is just as much as horrible it is. if SOMEONE thinks a game looks good at 1080p native TAA, they should not have (technically) a problem with 1080p dlss quality's presentation, as they look similar. and at that point, it indeed becomes a free performance boost that gives a massive advantage to the card that supports DLSS
yet here they're shitting on 1080p dlss quality at every chance they got. they're creating this perception of "dlss being shit at 1080p and therefore not being a purchase decision factor if you're buying a 1080p oriented GPU, hence it is pointless to have a 1080p oriented DLSS card. might as well get an AMD card!" logic.
like what do they want? what do they mean that 1080p dlss quality looks unplayable and shit? they should simply admit 1080p native taa is unplayable and shit then. why attack on dlss when it is the 1080p itself looks shitty?
