Hey everyone, it's Rich here. Last week we put out a trailer about our upcoming DLSS 3 coverage - but it also contained a few seconds' capture of Marvel's Spider-Man running at 8K maxed on RTX 4090 with DLSS balanced mode. So how did we make that capture? Truth is I used a bit of hardware from Amazon that turned out to be far more useful than I thought it would be - and it means we can integrate 8K into our benchmarking workflow. 

This is the kit in question (affiliate link) - could conceivably be useful to other creators out there. Or just using hardware for extreme super-sampling anti-aliasing on your PC titles for games that do not support it: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0B56D7NJW?tag=eurgam-df-uk-21

On another note, per the video, the DLSS 3 video is essentially complete bar final quality controls. We'll be putting it out as soon as we can.

That's much MUCH cheaper than the thing made by HDFury. Ty.

I have the HD Fury 8K VRRoom - and it does not support 8K60 to 4K60 downscaling (30fps only), which is exactly why I bought this!

Not that one, the one that acts like a passthrough or additional ports for 4k120 VRR HDR etc etc. Basically I had a receiver that actually worked as HDMI 2.1 intended but it only has 1 input for "8k enhanced" but thankfully I was able to get a box that added 3 2.1 ports for $100 from Sound United. I almost bought the HDFury device that does what I needed. It's like $500. I'd look it up but the site is blocked here.

Ok maybe it was the VRRoom lol. I was only going to use it for the switcher function though. All that being said and even though I have my receiver box I think I'm going to grab one of these anyways for the additional functions.

Any chance of seeing the 4090 on the Sony FW900? I dont see myself ever getting my hands on either one of those. Thanks for this video.

Wait, doesn’t the 4090 have 8K60 HDR capture? Or does that impact performance?
