News Upscaling can't save the world's slowest 'modern' GPU — FSR doubles performance on GT 1030, but titles still barely playable

[rambo919]

I've gone through several generations of these articles in quite a bit of detail, including this one. There's no place where "PCIe5 GPU in a PCIe3 slot" results in "10-30%" performance loss. You have to also cut the lane count, in order to see such a drastic performance reduction. Like I said, bandwidth is bandwidth.


They certainly did try cutting lane count.

Like I said.... people argue about it. Partly because so many don't believe that most motherboards actually have in practice the result of the same speed previous gen as half the current gen.

And the results in terms of performance loss are always starker for lower end hardware.

You need to slow down and go through the charts in careful detail. Take some time and understand what they're saying. Reading the article text might help. They only support what I'm saying. There's no contradiction.

I can't help you any further. I've shown you where the water is. Only you can decide whether to drink.

I will have to stick to a policy of I will only believe it once I see it because of how counter-intuitive it is to my general experience.

P.S. usually, when people claim the data refutes what someone is saying, they cite a specific example. Not that I want to continue this exchange, but you would need to say which entries of which chart, on which page contradict what I said.

Unfortunately not everyone memorizes such things encyclopedicly.... and search engines are useless these days.

I vote TomsHardware stops posting these clickbaity junk articles.

It's a dumb youtuber desperate for publicity, being exploited by a lazy and failing tech site that's desperate for clicks.

You're 100% right. This is pure clickbait. There's nothing to be learned from this, other than quite how badly it ran. I can see more value in that, in the sea of content that is youtube, than I can in the newsfeed of a tech site. It's really not news. Nobody needs to know this.

I don't understand, I think the video is entertaining, even though the conclusion is obvious from a mile away.

Also, while it might be "clickbait", the video's title at least doesn't rely on the cliché clickbait strategy, and why do you even assume the worst out of the YouTuber?

As for whether Tom's Hardware should stop writing articles like this one, eh, whatever.

I did say I think this is more understandable for youtube, where there's a lot of content that's not informative or news, but merely entertaining.

There's certainly much worse content on youtube. So, you're right that it's fine for them to put out on youtube, and if people find it entertaining or whatever, that's great.

Why does everybody seem to think that their opinions are representative of world.

Just because you and I don't give a rats, that doesn't mean other people don't find this interesting. Some of us like to mess around with redundant crap to see what it can do.

Grow up a little!

Nobody NEEDS - Who gives a crap? Some people find this stuff fascinating, so what? Are you incapable of scrolling past? Is it THAT hard to ignore what isn't interesting to YOU?
Stop being so narcissistically arrogant and assuming your feelings are representative of the world and or outright fact, because you're wrong.

So you think thatvreading is purely to be informative or for news?

So the absolute bottom end of a generation of cards thats about to be phased out struggles with games now just like it did at launch and somehow this is news? The 1030 was a joke as a gaming card when it was released you were always better of putting the money into something else.

When was it said as news? It's just an interesting article

"below 0 FPS average". How can FPS be lower than 0 lol

My criticism doesn't come in a vacuum.

There's a plenty of hard tech news that is missed by this site this site. They also don't do as many reviews as some other sites, and their reviews aren't the most comprehensive, especially since Jarred left.

When we accept a newsfeed full of inconsequential silliness like this, we should understand that it comes at the cost of real news and reviews. So, what's okay for youtube doesn't necessarily apply to a site that's trying to be a proper source of PC & tech news.

Stop being so narcissistically arrogant and assuming your feelings are representative of the world and or outright fact, because you're wrong.

Hypocritical, much? Isn't attacking someone for having a different opinion than you, exactly that?

Otherwise, you would just voice your own opinion on the matter and, if anything, acknowledge that others are entitled to theirs.
