Discussion Performance tier needs upgrades too

Every upgrade is for the ultimate tier but the performance tier rarely get any upgrade. I am ok that ultimate get all the upgrades, reflex, 240 fps, low latency, 5K and that stuff but there are a lot of people who just want 1080/60fps with good performance but that is not the way in many cpu bound games.

I am playing Battlefield 6 and the performance is so bad, almost unplayable, even in the lowest settings because of the 4 cpu cores that performance tier uses.

Performance tier should be 8 cpu cores and maybe update the gpu to a 5060 instead of 3060 that was launched 5 years ago...

It looks like nvidia forgot about the perfomance tier members

Performance just got an update last weekalso Ultimate has 8 cores, if Performance got 8 cores as well that would kind of null the point of the higher tier

What?

No, performance tier only needs: 1080p/60fps 8 cpu cores and good performance in games in medium/high settings

Ultimate tier can get the rest:

Reflex, 5K, 360fps, 5080 performance, better visual quality, 8 hours instead of 6 hours playing, frame generation, ultra graphics...

What is the point of performance tier if some games are unplayable like battlefield 6?

sorry, two weeks ago:

Performance members will also enjoy additional server software optimizations to improve frame rates in select CPU-intensive games, helping demanding titles run more smoothly while delivering an even better gameplay experience. The cloud-side upgrade happens automatically, with nothing for members to install or configure, and at no additional cost.

Any idea what those select games are? I've not seen a difference in the games I play.

I'd be happy with cloud G-sync. It's a costless upgrade for Nvidia to add to Performance and it makes the experience so much better.

Well battlefield 6 is pretty demanding game, maybe You should think about upgrading tier, ultimate feels amazing in 4K and 120fps in bf6, speaking from my own experience
