News Offloading Lossless Scaling Frame-Gen to secondary GPU eliminates overhead

[Admin]

Should you have the appropriate hardware configuration, a YouTuber finds a logical method for getting a Lossless Scaling Frame Gen without performance loss in any game.

And back to dual GPU setups we go. I knew they were going to come up with something to drive up sales.

Any word how much worse the latency is? I know running Lossless scaling already has some pretty hefty latency and I'd imagine moving to another GPU only makes things worse. I'd love to see some testing done on Lossless scaling as a whole by TH.

Some iGPU are getting very powerful (680M and up would be great, Strix Point is even nicer, and Strix Halo... that's a different kind of beast), so I'm certainly not against this line of work.

There is a clearer guide on youtube for those wondering that actually credits the people that figured this out months ago

Consider giving credit to the LS Discord server, where this was originally discovered. There's thorough testing and data from ~30 different systems there too.

Starting around 8 months ago, I gave 4060ti + 1660 Super a try and made a guide. Now, I use 4060ti + Arc B570. Latency added from dual GPU LSFG is around half that of DLSS 3 FG with Reflex 1 enabled. Credit to IV0435 for testing multiple configurations and making the original overview on YouTube, CptTombstone for latency testing, NotAce for helping it grow, and many others on the LS Discord for setting it up and testing on their systems.

TLDR? They used an iGPU and 1050ti as the secondary.

Completely.

And they just made owners of HX99G (and similar) very happy, because they had an iGPU that's quite powerful just standing there not doing anything on games (the dGPU was doing everything), and now they can scale + frame gen... for free! Even on games that don't have it natively.

I see this as a HUGE win, and I'm not sure why its barely getting any attention.

(Personally not a fan of frame gen, but I'm quite fond of scaling if it's done right).

Yes, they did. But it's obvious they really want you to use 2 GPU's, maybe a last gen and current gen.
This way they can sell higher volumes of dedicated GPU's, and the second hand market for GPU's would shoot up due to lower availability since users would keep their "old card" for the secondary purpose.

Geez what are you talking about? This post talks about Lossless Scaling and Lossless Scaling was made by a single person who wanted more than just latest gen PC gamers to have access to frame generation, it's not a "ploy to drive up sales"

It's all a conspiracy theory!

This is the right way not what these so called journalists do.
