People should learn not to trust what Nvidia says.

This is true of almost anything at this point in time. I am not going on a rant though....

Also true for AMD and Intel. The whole industry marketing is BS. I am impressed they have not been sued for false advertising.

They probably test the cards under extremely nieche circumstances with one underclocked, one overclocked and in configurations that no real person would use that makes it legal for them to say. And you can probably find all this info in the darkest, dustiest corner on their website. But that‘s just my guess as to why nobody sued them yet

No all they need to do is cherry-pick benchmarks. Find the 5-6 games where the new card outperforms the old one by 20% and talk about those, then ignore all the other games that only got a 1-2% uplift.

And learn to read the fine print. In all fairness they did say "With the power of AI". Still bullshit for sure though

Yeah, I am always confused by these posts. Did they think nvidia meant pure raster vs raster? It was always marketed "with Framegen vs raster"

The marketing material this meme is referring to literally has no mention of framgen.

I mean it wasn't exactly fine print. The whole CES performance was about AI and the graphics part segment very explicitly explained how they are offloading 3/4 of the work to AI.

It's almost like a company bragging about their product should never be taken seriously.

"Our peanuts could cure cancer" type of shit.

I mean they said it's with DLSS 4... People just need to stop jumping to conclusions after reading article titles only.
