AMD's Equivalent to DLSS, FidelityFX Super Resolution Is Coming to PS5 & Xbox Series

Nvidia may have the clear advantages over AMD thanks to it’s DLSS, but it seems that the company is holding back as it has been stated that they are launching their FidelityFX Super Resolution feature when it’s ready. This includes cross-support for the latest next-gen consoles, the PS5 and Xbox Series.

Shuckylad1148d ago

Awesome. Anything that can help solid 60+ Fps is a good thing.

Nitrowolf21148d ago (Edited 1148d ago )

Yep. Hopefully it's implemented well. I do like sharp resolution, but i prefer performance gains to 60 fps. With this maybe we can get best of both worlds

Eonjay1148d ago

If you look at DLSS you can get sharper image than native resolutions. This is why people have been talking about resolution as a non factor going forward.

Babadook71148d ago (Edited 1148d ago )

Coming to ps5, series x and even series 💩. Seriously, I wonder if series s has the extra gpu resources to make proper use of ml supersampling.

Mr Pumblechook1148d ago (Edited 1148d ago )

I watched a YouTuber called Colt Eastwood who said DLSS would only be coming to Xbox Series X and would allow the console to beat the PS5 in all game performance comparisons. The way he was talking it sounded like he knew what he was talking about?

IRetrouk1148d ago (Edited 1148d ago )

Colt? Hes a joke, has made all sorts of claims that are based on nothing more than what's in his head🤣🤣

cd11148d ago

@Mr P

That colt guy is a right little tit, he fanboys for XB just for clicks - he needs a slap.

OptimusDK1148d ago

@iretrouk it is not about sporting it... It is about what hw implemented the is behind it. And there is no doubt that xbox will have an edge here by going wide with more rops than going with higher frequency. I am sure xbox will have an advantage here.

Mr Pumblechook1147d ago

@IRetrouk FFS! He was talking about the chipsets like he was a tech expert, and he had Aaron Greenberg on his show I assumed maybe he had some insider information - so he's just a grifter! 🤣

IRetrouk1147d ago (Edited 1147d ago )

@optimus, heard that for the last year!! Xbox has higher this and that so games will run better etc etc etc, results aint really shown that at all, I aint listening to these fake insiders and tech experts anymore🤷‍♂️

People are going to complaint with "it's not real 4K (even though it's indistinguishable to the naked eye), it's DLSS 4k". So stupid.

JEECE1148d ago

Yep, can't wait to see that.

GameBoyColor1148d ago

Maybe console fan boys will but the PC community loves DLSS, it's literally black magic with performance gains and quality AA.

isarai1148d ago

My complaint is ghosting, makes for muddy motion. That being said im basing my concern off TAA and haven't actually seen DLSS in person, not sure if it's the same

Eonjay1148d ago

@GameBoyColor

That's the thing people don't know.
The ability to increase things like AA are what help produce a better image than a GPU can do at native resolutions.

It's the equivalent of working smarter not harder.

cd11148d ago

@Gameboy

No as far as i can see it was the PCMR criticizing checkerboard rendering saying it isn't native. If they had played God of war running on either PS4 Pro or PS5 they would think differently. They talk as if they know so much more than anyone else but that's far from the truth.

QSPR1147d ago

@isarai
you need to change your monitor, I can bet you it's a VA panel. IPS is the way to go if you want to game without ghosting, flickering and less input lag.

FPS_D3TH1148d ago

@isarai as someone with a 3080 who’s tried dlss on a few games now. It’s goddamn voodoo and the difference in 4K and dlss image quality is indistinguishable but you’ll love the performance gains

isarai1148d ago

I dunno, looking it up seems like ghosting is still an issue with DLSS 😒

1148d ago
isarai1148d ago

No i haven't seen it in person, but plenty of people who have say ghosting is still an issue. There's no shortage people complaining about ghosting after enabling DLSS with a quick google search. Not really baseless when plenty of posts online are complaining about it with screenshots of the issue. Not confusing it at all, look it up yourself.

Tapani1148d ago (Edited 1148d ago )

@isarai,

I have played multiple games with RTX /DLSS combo on both RTX 3080 and RTX 3070, and can confirm ghosting is an issue. The lower your rendering resolution is, the worse the ghosting becomes. I tested mostly games like Control, Metro Exodus, and The Medium, but it was there, and what I read online it's a common thing. I am actually more interested in a pure 85% gpu scaling + sharpening rather than 4K + DLSS. There's something strange about the DLSS2.0 image quality I can't really describe well, but it just isn't as immersive as 85% or native 4K. Somehow it doesn't feel as "3D" or pure, like there's a strange FOV effect or really small layer of vaseline on the screen. I guess no matter how much you use AI and ML, if it's low resolution like 1080p or 1440p you are upscaling, then you are upscaling a picture with less information. The algorithm has to create new information, and it somehow makes games look weird. Maybe most people won't feel that way, and that's why it's "magic" for them. For me, it wasn't.

This will allow raytracing at 4K60 without sacrificing other graphical features.

cd11148d ago

I hope so...then again Spiderman running in that new 60fps RT mode @ 1440p already looks great!

IRetrouk1147d ago

Crazy how good that performance rt mode looks and feels, pure 🔥

Destiny10801148d ago

the card is targeting 1440p gaming the same as the series s

JackBNimble1148d ago

And you have a problem with 1440p?
That seems kind of juvenile.

LucasRuinedChildhood1148d ago (Edited 1148d ago )

Was wondering when we'd hear about this. This should make it way easier to achieve 60fps with raytracing.

It's a shame that the launch games couldn't use this tech though.

JEECE1148d ago

This is so good. DLSS 2.0 is awesome, so if the AMD version is anywhere near as good, I will be thrilled. And with this, there will really be no good excuse for games not hitting a solid 60 fps.

Microsoft’s Surface and Xbox hardware revenues take a big hit in Q3

Microsoft just posted the third quarter of its 2024 fiscal financial results. The software maker made $61.9 billion in revenue and a net income of $21.9 billion during Q3. Revenue is up 17 percent, and net income has increased by 20 percent.

Xbox content + services up 62% while hardware down 31%... seems about right with the way they tout you don't need the hardware to play. People can play on their phones or smart tv or other means. I don't hardly play on my consoles directly since getting devices like the logitech g-cloud and ps portal. Which is to also say I have been playing more digital than physical because of these devices.

you should apply in MS PR team buddy, I think you will do a great job in my humble opinion :)

Xbox hardware revenue tanks to lowest point of Xbox Series generation

Profchaos2h ago

I'm not surprised surface is struggling they aren't relevant anymore

XBManiac1h ago

Too expensive hardware when others offer the same or more for less? Good work, Green Team.

SimpleDad1h ago(Edited 1h ago)

"Despite some early successes for Xbox games on rival platforms, Xbox hardware is down by a massive 31 percent this quarter."
"Without Activision Blizzard, Microsoft’s overall gaming revenue would have actually declined this quarter."
"Xbox content and services would have only been up a single percent without Activision Blizzard..."
"It looks like next quarter is going to be a similar story for gaming at Microsoft, too."

That is crazy... so A/B/K is carrying the whole Xbox gaming.
Oh and Microsoft will be fine. Windows, Office and Cloud are growing with each pc purchase.

Activision: "we gonna need a bigger rucksack/backpack please"

Microsoft: "why's that"

Activision: "to carry yo' weak ass'

Profchaos31m ago(Edited 29m ago)

Top brass have also wanted to start seeing returns on the 100 billion they have put into various Xbox related moves so seeing more multiplatform games is highly likely especially from abk

It's basically saying that PlayStation is the reason Xbox is afloat right now thinks to Ps5 versions of COD

Sony Patents To Prevent You From In-Game Harassment By Reading Your Emotions

A new patent recently published by Sony wants to gather biometric data of gamers to track whether one is being harassed using AI tools.

Profchaos1d 2h ago (Edited 1d 2h ago )

I hope this is one of those patents that never comes to fruition.

I already dislike the fact you can pay a significant amount for a online service buy associated games and content on said service and get banned from that service over potentially a misunderstanding the bans are already handed out for flimsy reasons

I'd rather see money invested in a ban that simply removes the offensive players ability to communicate with unknown players allow them to continue party chats with friends but not with Joe blow on cod.

exputers22h ago

Agreed. Blizzard recently banned a college Overwatch 2 player who's dependent for saying "shit." Pretty harsh.

Profchaos7h ago(Edited 7h ago)

How rediculas really. You can't say a word that's allowed in most PG films and prime time TV but the game is based around killing the enemy team using guns, explosives etc.

It's just backwards.

What your talking about is called block list

In 2006 a spaceship dropped of the playstation 3/xbox 360 i say that that generation was the last great gen with game functions/tech that has yet to comeback

Anyhow the playstation 3 if you block listed a id they could not talk to you in chatroom with either text or voice. But that was pre mind fucked 2018 when people were more human than sheep.

But hey gta 6 is coming out billion dollar budget without a single player custom character creator and without singeplayer coop off/online something saints row 1-3 had on the xbox 360.

At this rate I feel Sony will eventually sell a room to play games in it where they can monitor your every breath

jambola15h ago

I genuinely get a bit worried sometimes when a friend says something that could be offensive In a party
Because I have no trouble believing some bans would happen when in a private party for saying something wrong

SegaSaturn66917h ago

I want them to censor erotic content by measuring my groin temperature so i dont get too distracted while playing black ops 2.

Popsicle17h ago

Terrible idea. Not only do I not consent to providing my biometric data, the potential for mishandling biometric data is almost a certainty. Positive stress and negative stress can produce similar changes in biometrics. Interpreting the precise emotion a person is feeling is not only invasive but could be easily misconstrued. I hope this never comes to fruition.
