First, DLSS is supported on Linux.

Second, DLSS is kinda bullshit. The article goes into details that are fairly accurate.

Lastly, AMD is at parity with Nvidia with features. You can see my other comments, but AMD's goal isn't selling cards for gamers. Especially ones that require an entire dedicated PSU to power them.

Nvidia cards don’t require their own dedicated PSU, what on earth are you talking about?

Also DLSS is not “kinda bullshit”. It’s one of the single biggest innovations in the gaming industry in the last 20 years.

Low rent comment.

First: https://www.corsair.com/us/en/explorer/gamer/gaming-pcs/rtx-5090-5080-and-5070-series-gpus-everything-you-need-to-know/

Second: you apparently are unaware, so just search up the phrase, but as this article very clearly explains...it's shit. It's not innovative, interesting, or improving performance, it's a marketing scam. Games would be run better and more efficiently if you just lower the requirements. It's like saying you want food to taste better, but then they serve you a vegan version of it. AMD's version is technically more useful, but it's still a dumb trick.

What exactly am I supposed to be looking at here? Do you think that says that the GPUs need their own PSUs? Do you think people with 50 series GPUs have 2 PSUs in their computers?

It’s not innovative, interesting, or improving performance, it’s a marketing scam. Games would be run better and more efficiently if you just lower the requirements.

DLSS isn't innovative? It's not improving performance? What on earth? Rendering a frame at a lower resolution and then using AI to upscale it to look the same or better than rendering it at full resolution isn't innovative?! Getting an extra 30fps vs native resolution isn't improving performance?! How isn't it?

You can't just "lower the requirements" lol. What you're suggesting is make the game worse so people with worse hardware can play at max settings lol. That is absolutely absurd.

Let me ask you this - do you think that every new game should still be being made for the PS2? PS3? Why or why not?

Don't you mean NVidia's goal isn't selling cards for gamers?

No. AMD. See my other comments in this thread. Though they are in every major gaming console, the bulk of AMD sales are aimed at the datacenter.
