1 year agoTo me this looks like it’s too early to make any definite conclusions on APO. I get that it’s tempting to conclude that they only support 14th gen CPUs as some sort of planned obsolescence scheme, but given that it also only works in two games really weakens that idea and makes the early release idea fit much better. So don’t judge them on the current state of APO, they may provide support for older gens in the future, but also don’t give them credit for it and factor it into the value of the product until APO becomes useful in practice, not just as a tech demo. This discussion is rather pointless at the moment. The technical details of how it works are much more interesting to discuss.
I would wait at least one more generation unless you can offload the 6800xt at a good price. Also make sure dlss actually solves your issue and doesn’t bother you. Don’t fall victim to fomo and upgradeitis, just because something is better doesn’t mean it’s good enough and worth the money.
