As you don't have a 5 series card, make to also install the PhysX drivers.
Ahah I see what you did there

It looks really nice, though frame gen has the usual niggling little issues (the crosshair when run over grass is a mess). Also, the glow from the grav gun simply turns off when looking in certain directions.
Still, pretty cool!

Had a chance to put some proper time into the game and this is what I wanted and expected. Absolutely stunning looking especially with HDR. The atmosphere is still exactly what I remembered when I first played HL 2. The only time the game looks overly "bright" is when you are in any area with flood lights or/and a fire blazing, aside from then, the game is still mostly dark, so much that you need to use your flashlight in areas where there are no lights.

How's your power consumption? +300 on core and +2000 on memory with 90% power limit and less than 300w (taken in the opening part):
With MFG x4, very impressed with how little latency hit there is considering the massively increased fps:

Is that RTX HDR? Or is there an option in the Remix menu?
RTX HDR
1440p topping up to ~120 FPS FG was fine, but at 4K with a base ~30 FPS and FG to around 60 it was just nasty and I wouldn't consider it a playable experience, though I could drop DLSS off quality to improve that but personally even with DLSS4 I dislike anything below quality even at 4K - I can't unsee that some things look a bit cartoony chalky where it is reconstructing details.

It is NOT good

How is that possible. Humbug said his 7800XT is good as my 4070Ti and I can play it
Same as for me. I think low setting pathtracing + DLSS = light grain.
I think it looks better with less grain and more smear. I mentioned in the graphics forum but at a certain point the game looks a touch ‘cell shaded / stylistic’ which when combined with a higher framerate actually looks better than ‘high detail + grain’ (IMHO). Just a different sort of look but you still get the ‘jist’ of the raytracing.
