CES in a nutshell
10% Product specs
90% AI Yapping

[CDLXXVII]

Advertising a graphics card by saying "Rendering in 720p will make your fps number go up" is insane, like yeah, that's how I played GTA 5 on a 450 GTS 10 years ago

[itsmilan]

0:54 on par with RTX 4090 raw performance with DLSS 4 and frame gen
so basically yes no
kind of of like downloading ram

[sopfglv]

Did you really just accept that 5070 = 4090 claim at face value without mentioning all the fine print?

[tspooner]

I hate hate HATE frame generation. I can't be the only one who can see the difference between DLSS and native generation

[olgregg]

"Happy for you, or sorry that happened", killed me.💀

[dallinyauney]

7:34 "world's first commercial notebooks built with a Modular USB-C Port"
did no one tell them about Framework?

[adamgarlow]

The numbers being boosted by frame generation is just another reason to not spend any money until independent reviewers tell us how it really performs when its just being, you know, a regular GPU and not some buzzword salad that does nothing for older titles or superior OS's.

[MrBallerLife]

1:33 Twice as fast with DLSS DOES NOT COUNT!!!!

[soragranda]

10:25 Funnily, ps5 have the highest kids user base in gaming in this generation, in nintendo yearly fiscal report we know the majority of switch users are adults.

[nVizion]

$550 for a 5070 isn't going to happen...

[sheriff]

I want to see how it compares in raw performance when it launches, Nvidia always claims something is much stronger and better than previous gen then it turns out just A.I and DLSS stuff.

[ChinchillaBONK]

His jacket is not alligator skin, it was generated with AI together with DLSS 4 with the latest Ray tracing technology.

[llucis-v]

writing and delivery were so funny in this episode, i was lol-ing and almost spilled watching this while drinking my coffee this morning

(esp. the sarcastic therapy jokes, well done guys!)

[thezcamaroman]

3:11 Ok, wasn't ready for that. Got me for a laugh!

[PocketDrummer]

The RTX 5070 will not be as fast as a 4090. The fake frames shown on your FPS counter will be about the same, but frames != performance anymore.

[voxdeus]

5070 on par with 4090, BS, take this with a large grain of salt

[gabrieli]

In the cyberpunk benchmark comparing the 4090 to the 5090, the 4090 is using frame generation at 2X, while the 5090 is using it at 4X. Cut the frames in half on the 5090 to have a fair comparison, and you get 108FPS vs 121FPS. The real difference is only 13%, but that doesn't account for the overhead required for 4x frame gen, so most likely around 20% to 25% ..maybe?

The 5070 at 4X frame gen is competing with a 4090 with 2X frame gen, so logically the card is roughly half the speed of a 4090 natively, which places it at the same performance of the 4070 super or 3090. Just use lossless scaling for 4x frame gen and you won't need 50 series for literally anything, unless you specifically value it's neural rendering for some reason.

Also, a question I don't see being asked often enough. If the training for the frame generation and everything is already done on an nvidia super computer over at HQ, why can't previous gen cards use it? All you have to do is squint at their marketing, and you'll see more than clearly through the smoke. In pure rasterization, the 5070 will lose to the 9070 XT, so you can also expect AMD's card to cost too much at this point as well.

[KoneSkirata]

Hmmmh, that was a nice, delicious TechNews. I love it when 90% of the news cover actual product announcements and releases.

NVIDIA: Add 3 more frames by predicting future out of 1 frame.
Math: 4X Performance.
Reality: 1.2X to 2X Performance.
Price: Thanks Intel.
