I thought Vulkan fully supports ray tracing atm? or was that only a couple extensions that are part of the picture?

[theriddick]

be interested to know the comparison of encode/decode times.

[theriddick]

CP2077 will feature RTX stuff like DLSS, it will be interesting to see if somehow those can be supported also. DLSS would certainly help as it increases...

[theriddick]

This won't fix the REAL problem, or even have a impact on peoples mental mindsets on whether their rampant racists or not!
Politically correct...

I thought VK_EXT_directfb_surface was something many proton/wine users were crying about for ages, and something that has been missing on AMD in particular....

[theriddick]

This may be the most recent from Phoronix, not sure. As you can see perf issues across the board for NVMe.

Well I have a 2TB NVMe drive turning up someday soon and will run my own tests on ext4 vs btrfs, but I've seen several articles so far showing serious...

[theriddick]

Well you can compare Btrfs with EXT4 and see the issues. So I'm not sure if EXT4 is doing anything like what you said.

[theriddick]

Btrfs has some performance issues with NVMe drives when compared to EXT4 or even NTFS under windows. Until those are sorted out I'm unfortunately ignoring...

I really wanted a Radeon 7 which you can still find for a ok price sometimes. Its a good alternative to 1080TI and has 16GB of VRAM which yes I've gone...

[theriddick]

Is SDFGI rasterisation's (or conventional light rendering methods) solution to ray tracing but without the need for 100+ TFLOP compute units? (which is...

[theriddick]

Yeah I have a 1080TI and my experience with VRR under linux has been terrible, just a shame I can't test Wayland since NVIDIA pretends that doesn't e...

[theriddick]

How do you know VRR is enabled and working? do you have a graphics hud to indicate this? have you ran specific VRR tests?

I can't tell you...

[theriddick]

Yes but possibly both your monitors support VRR which is why it works? I have a 4k 60hz with VRR and one 1080p portrait monitor which does not have V...

[theriddick]

Does this VRR work in multi monitor environments? in particular when one monitor doesn't do GSYNC. That was the BIG issue with X11 for me, couldn't use...

[theriddick]

everytime I try out GNOME, I keep trying to make it look like PLASMA.. lmao I just can't NOT hate tablet desktop designs.

[theriddick]

YAY Wayland, can't wait to t... (looks at 1080ti), oh nevermind...

[theriddick]

One day Nouveau, one day.

Using a 1080TI atm, quite happy with it performance wise, I'm still on the fence with AMD until I see EVERYTHING...

[theriddick]

You would think Intel hw fix these issues in upcoming architecture like 10nm, but I hear their not, can't be bothered. ..
