Likely won't happen but it would be pretty cool if you have an Intel XeSS compatible iGPU in your CPU if that could do the upscaling while your dGPU does the main rendering.

Is it "fanmade" or real ?

Every time i see Ryan Shrout if feel like i'm being spun a load of lies.

I am looking forward to seeing how well XeSS works on Nvidia & AMD cards

A very good watch. I like how open-minded Intel is with the questions and answers in this video.

tl;dr

• DLSS still definitely better every time
• XeSS has two big problems with moiré for certain textures, and a wobbly image for water bodies [imo it looked headache inducing]
• When used, at 4K performance mode, with SM6.8* on a 3070 it had 3.80ms cost - DLSS only 2.30 ms; supposedly also lower quality than on XMX but he didn't seem to investigate.*

One thing I have noticed and as shown in that video is how much the lower presets of dlss have improved, balanced and even performance mode are far more usable than they were 1-2 years ago now e.g.

XeSS released for shadow of the tomb raider.

Tried it out a bit on my mere GTX 1070. The performance gains vary depending on the scene, but from testing a few different bits the numbers I saw were...

Ultra Quality - 0-7%
Quality - 16-20%
Balanced - 27-30%
Performance - 41-44%

Quite a bit smaller than the numbers I've seen reported for RDNA2 cards and such, but still really quite good considering the age of the card and the fact it's a completely free upgrade. Quality seems to be the sweet spot for this card at least, as it looks a bit rough below that and Ultra Quality does almost nothing much of the time.

Intels diagram looks very familiar.....

Good to see another upscaling tech. though, will drive nvidia and amd to do better.

Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered: XeSS vs. DLSS vs. FSR 2.0 Comparison Review

Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered has recently been updated with support for Intel Xe Super Sampling (XeSS), making it the second game to fully support XeSS. In this mini-review, we take a look, comparing the image quality and performance gains offered by XeSS, FSR 2.0 and DLSS.

Xess.dll worked with Spiderman Remastered.

Xess 4K Ultra Quality is impressive, can see white lines on bricks but DLSS 4K Quality the bricks was completed blurred.

I'm playing dying light 2 and it's the first time I've been impressed with DLsS in performance mode; prior games I found the image quality degraded way too much from 4k but performance mode in that game looks very sharp and I'd say 90% of what quality mode looks like


However, dying light 2 has an issues where any use of dlss results in flickering artifacts when light intersect certain objects in the game, at least the water looks fine
