Episode 120: This week we chat about AMD finally releasing FSR 4.1 for RDNA 2 graphics cards, Nvidia CPU overhead still being a thing, DLSS 5 model updates, and whether we should continue benchmarking the RTX 5090 now that it's been discontinued
Episode 119: Nvidia has reportedly discontinued the GeForce RTX 5090, sending that GPU silicon to RTX Pro graphics cards. We chat about that, as well as efforts to combat shader compilation stutter with SCSKiller, and the Epic Games Store getting a makeover
Episode 118: Steve and Tim chat about what sort of PC build actually makes sense right now, if you wanted to get into PC gaming and were facing the reality of what hardware costs at the moment. Also, we go completely off the rails and talk about the current AI situation.
Episode 117: Steve and Tim have been busy testing games this week, so we dive into some thoughts on The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Remastered, as well as Gears of War E-Day. We also chat a bit about this week's EVGA story, and how Nvidia allocated GPUs to them, and why times were tough for the AIB as a result.
Episode 116: Steve managed to obtain and test the Radeon RX 9050 4GB so we discuss just how bad it is, and the way it prays on customers. Then we have a chat about DLSS 5, the direction of graphics, how long until this feature is good and whether it even makes sense.
