vgilsoler Posted December 22, 2023 Posted December 22, 2023 Is there any plan by ED of using Nvidia RTX IO or Gdeflate to improve IO perfomance and texture handling in DCS? In my opinion, (and as user with old CPU) anything that can offload CPU workloads is an improvement. Furthermore RTX IO (as per Nvidia docs) is compatible both with DirectX and Vulkan. https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/news/rtx-io-for-geforce-gpus-available-now/ 2 I5 12600KF - 32 GB DDR4 - Nvidia RTX 4060 - SSD + NVME Nadie es un completo inutil, por lo menos sirve de mal ejemplo.
twistking Posted December 22, 2023 Posted December 22, 2023 (edited) isn't "direct storage" what you are asking for really? in the end it doesn't matter really matter how exactly the "direct storage" data-streaming is archieved, but it will matter, if it is vendor agnostic or not. that said, this is surely a technology that would make sense with DCS, however i'm also sure that ED could alleviate all IO/texture bottlenecks, if they would finally start to properly master/optimize their assets/textures instead of just continueing to push 4k auxiliary maps for even the tiniest of objects. it's a waste of rescources and while retooling the whole spaghetticode renderpipeline probably is a daunting and very difficult task, simply optimizing assets and establishing optimization workflows for future assets is just plain old busywork and nothing more!

vgilsoler Posted December 22, 2023 Author Posted December 22, 2023 Well, for me it doesn’t matter if ED can improve performance and offload CPU workloads using nvidia’s implementation, or their own. But I wanted to know if ED already is aware of, and they evaluated the use in DCS as a way to solve some of the pending issues in 2.9.
