Intel has just released its new Computer Graphics Video Quality Metric on GitHub, a new measure designed to capture the complex artifacts found in modern rendering techniques in computer graphics.

Doesn't Intel have anything better to do, like design and manufacture a CPU that doesn't suck?

I don't need an Intel tool, to tell me whether I think a game looks good on my monitor.

I'm glad some company is trying to standardize image quality measurements in real time.
Otherwise people will just argue apples and oranges and progress will be slow.

You all are missing the point. It will greatly assist game developers to correct for quality anomalies when using MFR or upscaling.

This is great news!

We need AMD, nVidia and Intel to keep tabs on eachother as much as possible so we, the consumers, benefit from their "checks". Currently, AMD hasn't had the will (or, being incredibly charitable: resources) to create a similar thing. Not even the community has come up with something like that for assessing how "good" a rendered image is.

I remember Maxxon used to do that with OGL accuracy tests, but that was dropped after CB15, I think.

Good on you Intel and thanks.

Regards.

1990s - 1024 × 768
2010s - 1080p
2020 - 2160p
2024 - 720p upscaled to 2160p with every other frame being fake

We've made it full circle !

I agree and really hope they take advantage of this to do just that.

Intels "tool" is designed to say your graphics are shit if you're not using an Intel CPU or Intel GPU. Pathetic how far this company has fallen.

On the flipside, that means AMD and nVidia now need to respond with a similar tool and in-depth analysis can begin comparing them.

I seriously doubt Intel (or AMD, nVidia, Qualcomm, Broadcomm, etc) would put out a tool to "check quality" on something and it's easy to discover foul play. That would be so incredibly stupid I'd like to think the chances are close to zero.

I strongly suggest looking at this from a "glass half full" perspective, since if the premise is true and it's easy to verify it works as promised/intended, then it is a nice addition to reviewing tools.

A huge number of people do. All they seem to see is the frame count number in the corner. Go watch some videos where they point out what artifacts from rendering look like. Once you know what to look for you see things you kinda ignored before. The problem is there is not simple number for quality of the image you can brag about on social media
