Now if only there was increased Intel motherboard support, in particular, for X299 since there still isn't an updated chipset for Intel's HEDT range. Come on Asus, make our day!

This led the company to say that it “will be pre-testing titles and using game profiles to enable Resizable BAR only in games where it has a positive performance impact.” That’s resulted in RTX cards supporting just eight titles, including Assassin’s Creed Valhalla and Red Dead Redemption 2, with the initial driver that was released today.

That's a good idea that should ensure there not being any performance regressions, though a blacklist with the feature enabled by default might be better. Or the option to choose between the two. Judging by existing Smart Access Memory benchmarks for AMD's cards, there are a number of other games that can see notable performance improvements from enabling the feature, and those that see performance regressions tend to be much less common. It's possible that the effect on Nvidia's Ampere architecture might be different though, and perhaps regressions would be more common, or more severe.

Thanks Asus for implementing support on X299! Wasn't expected, but greatly appreciated.
