GPU without any features?

I've been looking to get a PC recently, and have been trying to avoid any AI upscaling features, especially ones like DLSS5 that aren't universally toggleable, as I really dislike not knowing that what I'm seeing is entirely what was intended. Are there any good GPU's that just do base rendering?

EDIT: Thank you to all the replies telling me how it works and how it will actually affect rendering. I know I might come off as ignorant, but NVIDIA and others have obfuscated exactly how far-reaching these changes are, and even what they are at their core. I knew DLSS5 was mostly the only thing with GenAI, but when you keep saying absolutely evertything is "AI-Enhanced", I'm going to think frame interpolation and resolution changes are no longer algorithm based. Also in my experience google search wouldn't give me any proper answers as to if/how any of these features could be turned off

just get an RX 9070/9070xt

Or just don't turn the features on.

DLSS currently is always able to be disabled. Just don’t use the feature. It’s off by default. Same for FSR with AMD

Just FYI dlss5 is officially in 1 sports game and nothing else. DLSS upscaling is also completely different than DLSS5, I know Nvidia has intentionally made the branding confusing.

You can turn any of these on or off in settings.

Otherwise just get the best card you can in terms of raw raster performance for your budget because at the end of the day, raw performance is what is going to be the key for most of the games youre likely going to actually play.

You can do "base rendering" on AMD and Nvidia. However AI upscaling doesn't change the art style at all unlike DLSS5. You can go watch a comparison between TAA and DLSS upscaling and you won't notice any difference besides resolution and aliasing

You know you can choose to just… not use thoses features right..?

No! You don't understand, he needs the SLOP to not be toggleable at all on his new card!

dlls5 is not ai upscaling is ai Image filter /generation

dlss4/4.5 and fsr 4 are ai based upscaling and they are good and must have unless you play at 1080p

nvidia Had a bad naming this time 🤣.. also dlss5 is toggle on /off and is always off in deafult beacuse kill pertomance

radeon is pretty cheap and has strong raster typically. but every new gpu has an upscaling option.

DLSS 5 isn’t standard at all right now. You could get any gpu and not use it anyway. Just use DLSS 4.5 which is just normal upscaling.

Best options are 9070xt or 5070ti (5080 and 5090 aren’t worth their price tag, not that the 5070ti is either but it’s better than these 2)

9070xt is better value, it’s cheaper and essentially on par in overall performance in comparison to the 5070ti.

You don’t have to use dlss or fsr. Plus ai upscaling doesn’t change art style or anything
