Why do people still buy Nvidia gpus even though they are now lagging behind AMD?
>>
>>107724545
Ray tracing and DLSS.

AMD only beats Nvidia in raw rasterization. Which has basically been made obsolete with modern technologies

>Hurr durr fake frames
All frames are fake.

Friend bought a 9070XT, 90% of the games he plays look worse simply because of FSR *3, FSR 4 doesn't exist because AMD is retarded, even if it did exist developers just simply do not care about AMD it seems.
Also cherrypicking a screenshot like that does no favor of either, you're better of with a 5070 than a 9070XT, even, losing 20 FPS while gaining actual support and optimization and regaining what you lose with the 9070XT.
There is simply no point in AMD as nobody cares about them, even AMD themselves don't care about AMD.
>inb4 play native
You can't, modern games are made in mind for DLSS/FSR, DLSS simply wins, some games don't even offer native, just TAA which looks worse than DLSS/DLAA.
Also not everyone plays 1080p, we are literally going into 2026, step up, people are moving to 1440p, and 5070 is still a better choice despite the 12GB VRAM.

Don't underestimate the number of people who want to generate hentai with Stable Diffusion.
>>
>>107724545
The price difference just doesn't make sense for me to force myself to use an AMD GPU.
>>
amd drivers on windows are shit
>>
>>107724545
Oh wow
Ok, what's better than my 5090 from AMD?
>>
>>107724738
>modern games
>>
>>107724738
all wrong lmao
fsr4 is a thing and it's literally just a drop in to fsr3
>you're better of with a 5070 than a 9070XT, even, losing 20 FPS while gaining actual support and optimization and regaining what you lose with the 9070XT.
on linux? are you retarded?
>Also not everyone plays 1080p, we are literally going into 2026, step up, people are moving to 1440p, and 5070 is still a better choice despite the 12GB VRAM.
the pic is 4k?

>>107724738
You're playing the wrong games then, everything I play runs great on my 9070 XT. No AI dogshit necessary.
>>
AMD is great at gracing the bottom of high-range, but Nvidia can Intel them by just throwing more power and MSRP to get the peak. Unfortunately, AMD can't just throw a couple more cores onto their GPUs or throw more cache into the problem. Ironically, AMD probably would've dumped into VRAM if AI didn't force Nvidia's hand.

vkd3d nvidia performance loss is getting fixed in a few months
currently vkd3d does things a way that only benefits AMD and bottlenecks nvidia and intel performance
if you compare native vulkan performance of nvidia cards its nearly identical between windows and linux
it will need a new vulkan extension so its taking a while
>>
>>107724545
people are influenced by fud and halo marketing
rx6600 is the best GPU of the last 10 years but you ask fags and they'll say gtx1080 ti
>>
>>107724545
question for linux bros: what drivers do you need for AMD cards when gaming on a linux box?
>>
>>107724622
>All frames are fake.
it's about responsiveness not frames where inputs are invalid/ignored

Don't reply to ai slop shill. He is baiting you.

This thread is full of Indians paid to shill Nvidia.

notice me black hole-chan
>>
>>107725349
It's mainline, you just need the non-free firmware package from your distro and, bam, you have drivers.
>>
>>107725349
depends on the distro
you're looking for mesa

Literal skill issue my 7900XTX has been running like a dream since i bought it back in august of 2023 cope harder faggot
>>
>>107725376
I should mention as well, but this may be preinstalled depending on distro.

>>107725390
That really should be preinstalled, unless you're running Gentoo or Arch. If you are and are asking questions like the OP, the correct answer is to install a different distro, in my mind.
>>
>>107724545
>muh meme tracing
>muh fake frames
They aren't as good as the shitskin "number go up" game.
>>
>>107725349
it literally baked into the kernel. you just install the os and its ready.
>>
>>107724545
Physx in 20 years old game.
Granted you need to consult fucking PCGamingWiki to get it work these days even with supported GPU.

You bought a $600 card to play games from 2010, lol.

>>107725278
>on linux? are you retarded?
Nobody sane plays video games on Linux, sorry man.
>the pic is 4k?
Exactly, nobody normal plays on 4k, people are barely moving away from 1080p, get a reality check on yourself, pop the bubble you live inside of and go get education so you can read and comprehend things.

You guys cope way too much, that's why this board and gaming in general is just shit, too many deluded people.
>>
>>107725400
Objectively false. Read any bug reports or patch logs for these cards. I too have been running the 7900 xtx. It's mostly fine nowadays but wow.
>>
>>107725478
>You bought a $600 card to play games from 2010, lol.
I bought a $3000 card to play games from 2004
>>
>>107725478
>You bought a $600 card to play games from 2010
Why wouldn't I do that?
PS3/360 was the era of horrible PC port, and having overkill hardware eliminate all performance issue.
>>
>>107725478
what a retarded techlet perspective to have
>>
>>107724622
>Ray-tracing
Belongs in professional graphics. It is pure meme-tier for gayming shit. Most genres don't take advantage of it
>DLSS and MFG
Shitty anti-scaling/upscaling designed as a crutch to deal with ray-tracing which is too taxing to run at native.
>Rasterization obsolete
ROFL, you know that rasterization came after ray-tracing for 3D graphics as a compromise? Because ray-tracing was too taxing.
>"YOU ARE AN AMD-FAG"
Got a RTX 5080 because RTX 5090 is brainlet-tier for /v/tards with way more money then sense and is too crippled for professional use. BTW, I can easily afford one.
>>
>>107724545
They have better tech that doesn't overheat or blow up in your face.
>>
>>107724545
Because it's the currently the only way to get up-to-date graphics acceleration on Haiku.

>>107724545
Same reason some people last year still swore by Intel CPUs. Outdated preceptions, and dumb sense of brand loyalty.
>>
>>107724545
Sadly it was a better card at launch, who cares how it holds up 6 years later. People only look at reviews either day one or when they buy it. Most people don't even do that much, just how much Nvidia can I afford?
