AI (frame generators) DLSS4

Is the DLSS benefit mainly for 4k monitors? I'm running 1440p and can't see me changing to 4k anytime soon. I've got a Vega 64 which is struggling with newer games and looking to upgrade soon. I'm not sure if the 5070 woulld be beneficial? my son just had a 7900XT for Xmas, running 1440p as well, and the performance is excellent.

In short, yes it’s helpful for 4k as that’s when the GPU starts getting punished by the resolution. DLSS quality mode will render natively at 1440p then upscale it to 4k.

Rendering natively 1440p is also ‘decent enough’ in the first place to minimise artefacts. By comparison, DLSS quality mode for 1440p monitors will render natively at 960p… so you’re upscaling a potato in comparison.

Ultra wide starts punishing GPUs already as well but it's still treated as 1440p, so still upscales from 960p - hence, not ideal resolution for DLSS and people wonder why I'm not a great fan. :p
