I'm not 100% but I think It is as good as the rtx 2080, but he is calling it lousy. So does that mean rtx 2080 is lousy too? When you switch raytracing and dlss on the game looks better but the fps takes a hit.

2080 is lousy , but at least it's 215W card built of 12nm node. Radeon VI is even more lousy given that it needs 300W and it's 7nm card

Nvidia: "What its only as good as our RTX 2080 ? bish please.... we got Dlss & Raytracing."

note:
DLSS is a rendering technique like the PS4pro does, kinda like the checkerboard rendering (less imagine quality for more performance).
Also AMD will have raytraceing too I suspect.

Yes he does sound Salty.

If I understand the tech correctly, DLSS is using neural networks (that need to be trained per title) to make higher resolution image with more details than what it gets on input - so, not like checkerboarding.

Yes instead of 1 technique that kinda works for everything, they have a A.I optimise how to do it best for each title.
But its still the same way to go about getting better performance, it comes at the cost of imagine quality.

Its a better technique than Checkerboard rendering that the PS4pro does, but its in sense the same thing.
(its just one works from the top, and scales down, while another works from the bottom and scales up)

 

About the power load:

It usually 225+ watts and has short bursts where it can go upto 314watts.

Radeon VI will probably be the same, even if they say 300watts, during gameing it ll likely be 225watt ish too.
