DSR has gotta take a performance hit. I don't know how it can't. But if not :blessed:
I think they're saying there's no performance hit to perform the downsampling. so basically going from 4k to 1080p would give you the same performance as native 4k

I guess the only difference from how you can already downsample with nvidia cards is the use of a "gaussian filter"

so i'm confused. You need to sli for this to actually work then right? No way a single 980 is running 4K natively. Or am I looking at this wrong?

it depends on the game. but yeah, they do kind of market the 980 as a single card for 4k. obviously it won't max-out every game at that resolution though

the DSR thing is basically just something for people with ~1080p displays to take advantage of the extra horsepower the card has. similar to what I already do with SGSSAA, OGSSAA, downsampling, etc. I downsample Driver SF from like 8k :heh:

They finally have dropped support for a gang of legacy cards with the new drivers. Everything below 400 series isn't being included for now on. This should let them focus more on recent gen cards instead of fixing issues with 8600 GT's and shyt

It should show up as another drive then E:/ (2 TB) and F:/ (746 GB)

You can reformat since its new and you wont lose anything but some time and fix it or some people actually like multiple volumes
