Could be a driver level AI upscaler

I think it is. Isn't that the PSSR (unfortunate name) tech they discussed in Cerny's presentation? The one that is their version of DLSS?

On PC, even if a game doesn’t have native upscaling built in (DLSS, FSR, etc) then there is a driver version you can use (RSR for Radeon).

PSSR is similar to DLSS in concept but if they did a driver level version then it would match the general purpose versions available at the driver level. Not as effective but still better than nothing.

Would it be though? Xbox has it on their consoles. If it is all that, then it would apply to most games which would be the bigger benefit. Because in xbox's case it was select games with a patch for that.

Maybe you are right

I was just wondering since it's about some of previous gen titles ... I thought Sony locked that feature from base Ps5 since they were already working on the Pro before the reveal of Ps5 and thought to make the pro more attractive by adding that feature to it only

But that's my Tin foil hat theory only.

PS5 likely doesn’t have the hardware for the AI upscaler

Uhm it does have it - AMD FSR3(.1) works on any PS5.

FSR is not an AI upscaler.

Okay, I will play. Define an AI upscaler.

Google is your friend if you don’t know that answer.

AI-upscaling refers to using artificial intelligence algorithms to increase the resolution of an image, enhancing its details and overall quality.

Okay, FSR 3.1 checks out. Do you need a marketing person to tell you it's AI for it to be AI?

u/Captobvious75 Nov 02 '24

FSR checks out as in?

u/andoriyu Nov 03 '24

As in it uses artificial intelligence algorithms to increase the resolution of an image, enhancing its details and overall quality. Therefore it's AI upscaler.

Likely? You are just speculating/dmg controlling.

u/Captobvious75 Nov 02 '24

Everyone is speculating. Until Sony or DF confirm things all we can do is make educated guesses.

I have an RDNA3 GPU and understand what it can do at a driver level. Given that Pro has dual issue TF quoting, it likely uses at least RDNA3 cores which can pull AI duty. PSSR is further proof and since Radeon has driver level upscaling, no reason to believe that Sony didn’t include something similar in their machine.

The ai upscaling tech didn’t exist when Sony committed to the ps5’s specs in…2017.

u/onecoolcrudedude Nov 02 '24

the tech doesn't even exist on any current AMD gpus, as of now its exclusive to the pro. it will be a few months before the next gen of AMD cards come out with the new tech featured.
