CDPR are welcome to tweak their Stadia version of CP2077 and make a native release for Steam Deck ;)

Did any of the developers mention making native games for Steam Deck?

Quoting: fearnflavio3440x1440

Cyberpunk with DLSS on Performance and everything on ultra I get around 50 to 60 fps at this resolution.
Without DLSS something around 30fps.

Yeah, at this resolution I'd imagine you might need upscaling with that card. I'm using 2560x1440 so didn't face the need for it so far.

I guess it improved then? I remember vkd3d-proton developers saying it's not going to happen soon.

I get around 80 fps with max settings and 2560 x 1440 with RX 6800 XT so that works well without upscaling.

Quoting: STiATVery well, I've looked it up, it's actually true, the 6800 TX is ~3.6 % faster than a 3070 Ti, and ~5 % slower than a 3080, so somewhere in between those two :D.

Plus from what I was reading about Linux gaming specifically, in some workloads Nvidia is just worse due to some of their driver deficiencies, like with vkd3d-proton especially. So I don't regret getting 6800 XT since at least currently I'm playing Cyberpunk 2077.

Quoting: STiATAnd according to tests, 6800 XT is actually worse than 3070Ti to the sources I am reading at least. But ye, I couldn't cool a 3080 either ...

From what I was reading, 6800 XT is pretty close to 3080 Ti, so I don't expect it to be worse than 3070 Ti really (I mean performance wise).

Quoting: STiATMy fans don't even start when gaming ;-). That's what I was aiming for.

I see. I doubt it's possible with higher end models, regardless whether it's AMD or Nvidia. For slightly more mid range ones - may be, especially if you downclock them.

I.e. 6800 XT is comparable to something like 3080 Ti I suppose, not 3070?

Quoting: STiATI just was not able to do that with the AMD counterparts, they require active cooling a lot earlier or so to say .. permanently if they get under load.

Sucks, but I think that AMD still has some work to do to catch up in that part. I'm aware that's a corner case and nobody really cares but me, but I like not actually hearing my system :D.

I didn't do an extensive research, but my Sapphire Pulse RX 6800 XT is not spinning fans and is completely silent under normal desktop operation, running at around 53-55°C (edge). When under load like gaming, fans start working obviously. I find it a pretty good setup. Plus even under load fans are pretty quiet so I have nothing to complain about quiet operation wise.

Some interesting details from the latest stats:

1. GPU shift from Nvidia to AMD among GOL users has been almost flat for a while, likely due to major GPU shortages and inflated prices, which makes most wait and not upgrade their GPUs.

2. Radeon RX 6900 XT has more users than RX 6800 XT and RX 6800. Probably also skewed due to shortages. Usually it's the opposite picture.

Quoting: AnzaSo the point stands, there are online features in single player that make sense. They're not all there to spy on users (it's just that collecting telemetry is always a possibility with online connections).

I'd say argument of anticheat for leaderboards is a very poor justification for requiring on-line connection for actual in-game features.
