@filt3rless 6 ай бұрын

Thanks! I just opened up Space Engineers and the earth starter base seems to run pretty well. It'll definitely depend on how much you build. I was getting around 70FPS on the earth starter base on medium settings / 1080p on Turbo. Around 50 or so on performance which is pretty good.

@filt3rless 6 ай бұрын

I love it, super clean and minimalist looking :). Yeah I think they've extracted just about all the juice they can from the Z1 Extreme. I'm testing the framegen in the AMD preview driver right now but the input lag and artifacting really take away from the usefulness IMO. I'm hoping they have it fixed by the time the official driver comes out.

I have wanted to create a 317 vs 323 vs 336 BIOS test. It'd be really interesting to see how the day 1 performance is on 317 versus the low watt boost we saw in 323 versus the latest one.

Once FSR 3 with frame gen comes to the Ally on the 24th, it'd be cool to see if framerate can improve in AAA titles at lower wattages such as 12W. It could mean a huge boost in battery life while still getting decent FPS.

@filt3rless 6 ай бұрын

Hey, I tested out the preview drives and just released a video on it. The biggest issue is input lag, and it adds quite a bit. So you want the base frame rate to be high. I think the ideal use case would actually be using more power to get high FPS. At lower TDP the Ally is great with it's LFC (Low Framerate Compensation), allowing it to get to 30FPS with VRR.

Man I love the 15W performance we're getting with the Ally....just one question : are you going with 900p and RSR ? Why aren't you sticking with the 1080p version?

@filt3rless 6 ай бұрын

I always run 900p with RIS (Radeon Image Sharpening). RIS just sharpens the image some and it works at all resolutions. It also has no performance impact. With RSR you have set the desktop resolution to 900p for it to work in games like Diablo 4, Forza Horizon 4/5, and others because they're running in window borderless mode. And RSR does have a performance impact that can vary from game to game. For me it wasn't worth the hassle, so RIS is something I've used for years and can just toggle it on and forget about it. Just simpler IMO. Hope the info helps :)

@filt3rless 6 ай бұрын

Hey, it was run at 900p despite it showing 1080p in the settings. I usually run multiple tests (more than I have in videos). 900p is also a great resolution to run it at. 1080p is pretty rough and will get a bit lower FPS than you saw in the video. Hope the info helps :)

Did you see the Lossless Scaling on Steam now has frame generation? Needs a bit of fiddling with refresh rate and stuff but it works great, especially on Yuzu and RPCS3. Running at 30fps, gives you that 60fps smoothness and also the new frame gen mods by LukeFZ also work great. Dead Space remake is actually way more playable now on the Ally.
