Since I am not a developer. I was researching more about TAA and want to give non dev point of view. I know there are models that are made of voxels which are 3 sides of triangle. What if you only anti-alias the side that is not touching any other triangle effectively smoothing edges. Just a thought. Because if that would be possible you would only need to smoothen one voxel and that should keep the clarity of the image and be very precise.

2025-02-22 11:20:34 +0000 UTCI also thinking the same about Nvidia and gamers. With all these issues, prices, sketchy designs I feel like they are trying to get rid of gaming gpu's and in general gaming consumers because they can't be bothered anymore and AI makes more profit for them. It really feels half-baked products. It almost seems like they trying to get rid of gamers intentionally without making us mad so if shit went south they can go back.

2025-02-22 11:13:25 +0000 UTCNot gonna lie, but I feel like integrated graphics card would be now popular cause you don't need much to run older games and those should support physx right ?
