As a five-year-old, when kids are out and about getting their hands dirty in sandpits, Dr Ehab Hamarneh had a different kind of mission. The mission was the following: to dig in the backyard of his kindergarten. For six months straight, he gathered his KG classmates and continued to dig relentlessly.

For a little boy to have this thought, it may sound very dramatic…

Microsoft aims to streamline and unify these upscalers, making it easier for game devs to add support for every GPU vendor. The main issue with having three different upscaling solutions lies not just in how well they all perform in relation to each other (although that’s pretty interesting, too), but in how many games can support them.
