My R11 NVidia RTX card and DLSS Support
When NVidia or AMD release the DLSS feature will the Alienware Video cards be able to take advantage of this ? Or will it be another Resizable Bar thing that has to have a mobo bios support update in order to use it. I’m still waiting for the resizable bar for my R11. I sure hope we will be able to or us AlienHeads are missing out on alot of these performance features.

I got Horizon Zero Dawn based on the promise of better images. Turns out that the game is quite boring. Newer games look very good with both RTX and AMD RX 6000 series. NVIDIA seems to suffer more from hitches and crashes (bug check 0x116 TDR) AMD also seems to gain by pairing a Ryzen CPU with an RX6000 video card.
I believe there are lots of people who are now kicking themselves when I said buying a GT1030, 1050 TI , 1060 6 Gig, or a Silent 1650 are now wishing they had purchased it when I said that all were a good investment In 2019 and 2020 because they could be used on newer and newer models.
No way these cards are worth $200, $300, or more. Also No way an RTX 2XXX/3XXX is worth over $1000.

DLSS is available on all RTX 2000 and RTX 3000 cards and uses the available tensor cores.
It's a card feature that is used by the Nvidia driver and does not require a BIOS update of either the Vbios or MB Bios.

Also, if you're worried your favorite game won't get supported, you can submit a request here (to AMD):

DLSS 2.0 was released a while back, if you have a 2 or 3 series RTX you will already have support for it. The main issue though is whether the game code supports DLSS, many do not.
If you have an AMD GPU, then FSR will be available to Nvidia and AMD GPUs, going back even to Nvidia pascal cards. Game developers will of course need to add support for it too.

NVIDIA DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling) is groundbreaking AI rendering technology that increases graphics performance using dedicated Tensor Core AI processors on RTX GPUs.

AMD FidelityFX Super Resolution is completely different standard.
So theoretical frame rates are the new MHZ Myth.
AMD FidelityFX Super Resolution uses upscaling technologies to help boost your framerates and deliver high resolution gaming experiences, without having to upgrade to a new graphics card.
Another major difference between DLSS and FSR is compatible hardware. NVIDIA's DLSS is locked down to its RTX GPUs, but AMD's FSR is open-source and available on far more hardware. AMD says FSR will be enabled on all of its Radeon RX 6000, RX 5000, RX 500, and RX Vega GPUs. It will also work with Ryzen CPUs and their integrated Radeon graphics.It's also supposed to work with modern NVIDIA GPUs, including GTX 10-series cards that aren't compatible with DLSS.
The Human eye can’t see more than 30 FPS argument is based on human biology. In the many debates among gamers arguing PC vs consoles.
The human eye does not see in frames per second. So, its not simple to determine the exact amount of FPS the human eye can perceive. What the human eye can perceive varies greatly depending on specific person themselves. The Eye can perceive flashes of light so something really fast will leave an after image.
This is what the Air-force does for eye testing flashing a specific image of a plane for an instant and then asking the pilot what the plane is.

Good stuff great info. Thanks for explaining what I didn’t know of this technology.
