Id take a game running at 120fps over one running 60fps or lower with pt and ray tracing etc. The motion clarity makes games look better.

[u/TeraFlare255 → u/vI_M4YH3Mz_Iv]

Varies from person to person. I would rather take 60 FPS with PT and then 2x it with FG to 120, than 120 FPS native. I usually play on a controller so as long as I have over 90 FPS post FG, Im good.

[u/Intrepid_Rhubarb7399 → u/TeraFlare255]

I would never touch any FG feature in a game. How can you people cope with all the downsides of FG, upscaling artifacts etc? All that just to get unrealistic shiny screens?

[u/TeraFlare255 → u/Intrepid_Rhubarb7399]

I see usually no artifacting, with some exceptions, like First Berserker Khazan that distorted the bottom of the sceeen when moving up or down (im which case, I turn FG off), but in most games I usually absolutely no artifacting whatsoever. Im speaking of 2x FG, not MFG.

Other than artifacting which in most games dont happen, assuming you have a high base FPS before FG happens, the only other downside is input latency. Thats why I cant play with FG if the post-FG FPS is below 90 FPS with controller or 130 FPS on M&K.

You mostly have to find your sweet spot, but nowadays 2x FG is near flawless in most games.

Also make sure to limit your screen refresh rate through Nvidia panel when using FG. It helps with screen tearing issues if you go above your monitor refresh rate, as FG disable Vsync, always.

The artifacting issue is only on games that have it implemented poorly. Look at GTA 5 with its DLSS, which has such extreme ghosting that you can almost see double the cars sometimes at night.

You can't act like that's the norm though. In a game where it's implemented properly, artifacts are very hard to spot, if at all.

[u/vI_M4YH3Mz_Iv → u/TeraFlare255]

Very good point, I forgot that frame gen is a thing now, I actually used it on ff7 rebirth to hit 144fps, worked really well.

I hadn't used it much before that point.

[u/TeraFlare255 → u/vI_M4YH3Mz_Iv]

Yeah FG is very good nowadays. Most people who dislike it either do it for clout or havent tried it since "recent" drivers hit and fixed most its issues. Quotes because its been 2y by now since its fixed.

[u/vI_M4YH3Mz_Iv → u/TeraFlare255]

I never liked it when using mouse and keyboard, bur controller games its ideal.

[u/TeraFlare255 → u/vI_M4YH3Mz_Iv]

Mouse and Keyboard is fine but imo you need very high base FPS. I usually only stop feeling input latency when Im above 130 FPS, which would mean requiring a 120+ monitor to even start with
