Well. Got back home, 9060XT 16GB is in... Able to run Oblivion Remastered all ultra settings at 1440P with 35-45fps. (I have a VRR display so it's not jarring).
Meets my requirements... Minimal stutter on my system except when you first load the game up and it has to stream assets in.
The 6600XT was doing a max of 6fps at the same settings.
Actually rather impressed with what overpriced mid-range GPU's can do these days... My A.I upscale render times for DVD's went from 4-6 hours down to 20-30 minutes, going to save me a ton of time and power for my DVD upscale NAS project.
Sold the old Radeon RX 6600XT on Facebook for $50 in about 5 minutes flat (Literally), I just wanted to get rid of it... The era of 8GB GPU's is over, so to me it's depreciated hardware.
And finally got to unpack the Switch 2... Which, has many aspects I like... I.E. 1080P, VRR, larger display... But the lack of an OLED panel is a big regression when playing games like Ori and the Will of the Wisps with those high contrasts and bursting lights. |
Oh damn, I think you could've got at least 4x as much for that 6600XT I know you're against non-native, but I'm interested to hear how you find FSR4. |
Gave it a go in Oblivion, along with XESS and FSR3, but XESS had a "dithering" type artifact with hair... And FSR 3 made the image seem soft with edge halo's due to sharpening... And FSR4 had pixel crawl and shimmer with tree foliage.
Definitely still can't tolerate it. But it's leagues ahead of FSR3... Can't really tolerate it with Cyberpunk on the Switch 2 either... It's extremely glaring.
I guess it's going to be awhile yet before FSR, XESS and DLSS are able to make a like-for-like image that is free of artifacts.
And that's the issue, even when I am not looking for artifacts, I still see them, wouldn't be bad if it wasn't obvious.
