But you need two video cards Nvidia DLSS and AMD FSR upscalers have their own variants of frame generation technology, which work differently and are available on different video cards. But it turns out that these technologies can be made to work together. [caption id="attachment_85199" align="aligncenter" width="780"] Nvidia DLSS 3 and AMD FSR 3[/caption] The authors from QuasarZone decided to check whether it would be possible to make the HR generation technologies of two companies work on one PC, and it turned out that it would work. But only in a very specific way, and the results are ambiguous. [caption id="attachment_85200" align="aligncenter" width="780"] Nvidia DLSS 3 and AMD FSR 3[/caption] Frame generation technologies in Nvidia DLSS 3 and AMD FSR 3 forced to work together This all works thanks to the fact that AMD has an AFMF generator built into the driver, otherwise it probably would not have been possible to implement the idea. However, the system must still have two different 3D maps. In this case, the authors of the idea used the RTX 4090 and RX 6600. The game (in this case, several projects, including Cyberpunk 2077) was rendered on an RTX 4090 card. It also allowed DLSS 3 to be activated with frame generation. Next, the RX 6600, to which the monitor is connected, comes into operation. Technically it is used for image output, but the AMD driver allows you to improve performance through AFMF before outputting the image. That is, the AMD frame generator adds frames to a picture that the Nvidia generator had previously added frames to. At the same time, productivity increases greatly. Almost three times the original value and twice the value obtained after the generator in DLSS 3. This implementation, surprisingly, does not cause any special technical problems. Is it possible that the 1% Low indicator may even decrease in a number of games, although in Cyberpunk it has increased. In addition, it is worth remembering that AFMF technology turns off as soon as the player starts moving the camera quickly, but in quiet modes it automatically turns back on. Unfortunately, the authors did not pay attention to image quality, which is very important, given two technologies for completing frame drawing.

RX 7800 XT is still more profitable The other day we reported that the Radeon RX 7900 GRE video card appeared in European retail, but the price of 720 euros seemed far from the most adequate. Now there are more affordable options.  [caption id="attachment_77898" align="aligncenter" width="780"] Radeon RX 7900 GRE[/caption] Radeon RX 7900 GRE has finally moved to Europe. At the moment, the most affordable option is the XFX adapter with a price of 672 euros. The Radeon RX 7800 XT is still more than 100 euros cheaper, although the performance of the cards is very similar. However, not everyone reads tests and looks at reviews, and the RX 7900 GRE is at least older in name than the RX 7800 XT.  Additionally, if more affordable options have appeared in a few days, even cheaper RX 7900 GRE models will likely appear shortly. It is also worth noting that the new product appeared in several European countries at once, including Italy, Poland, Latvia, and Turkey.   You may recall that AMD also recently introduced the Radeon RX 6750 GRE 10GB and Radeon RX 6750 GRE 12GB video cards, which, as we now understand, may also appear in retail sales outside China in the coming months. And these are adapters with a price of 270-290 dollars, that is, they play in a much more popular segment. 

This is an APU for game consoles, but there is a copy in the form of the Ryzen 5 7540U The first tests of the AMD Ryzen Z1 processor, the junior APU in the Z1 line for portable game consoles, have appeared on the Internet. [caption id="attachment_55215" align="aligncenter" width="780"] AMD's[/caption] The Ryzen Z1 is almost technically a copy of the Ryzen 5 7540U but differs in its customizable power limits. These are the first APUs in the Phoenix2 line to feature a new silicon designed specifically for energy-efficient mobile PCs and consoles. [caption id="attachment_55216" align="aligncenter" width="780"] AMD's[/caption] This is AMD's first mobile processor with different cores. The Ryzen Z1 review has appeared Both are configured with two Zen 4 cores, four Zen 4C cores, and an iGPU with 256 stream processors. It is the Ryzen Z1 that underlies the younger version of the Asus ROG Ally console, which is not yet available for purchase. Tests show that with a price difference of $100, this version of the console looks much worse than the older one. [caption id="attachment_55217" align="aligncenter" width="780"] AMD's[/caption] The Ryzen Z1's performance in gaming tests is often much lower than that of the Ryzen Z1 Extreme and its Ryzen 7 7840U counterpart. Yes, in some games and modes, the difference is insignificant, but more often it is huge. However, the Z1 consumes much less energy, and if a portable console is needed primarily for some undemanding games, then the younger APU is even better since with it the console will be more autonomous.
