AMD's next GPUs could bring neural rendering to the PS6 and next Xbox

In a recent post on the AnandTech forums, trusted leaker Kepler_L2 claimed that AMD's next-generation graphics hardware will support its take on neural lighting, which Nvidia recently introduced with DLSS 5. The move could significantly expand the technology's reach beyond PCs using Nvidia's high-end graphics cards. Read Entire Article

AMD's next GPUs could bring neural rendering to the PS6 and next Xbox

Recent speculation suggests that AMD's upcoming graphics hardware may support neural rendering, a technology NVIDIA introduced with its DLSS 5. If true, this could bring neurorendering to next-gen consoles like Sony's PlayStation 6 and Microsoft's Xbox, enhancing the realism of game graphics. Neural rendering utilizes artificial intelligence to generate additional lighting and shadows, potentially making traditional games appear more lifelike.

However, the technology has faced criticism due to its potential to create unrealistic visual effects that clash with a game's artistic style. AMD's approach may differ from NVIDIA's by having direct access to 3D engine data, allowing for more accurate enhancements while preserving the game's original artistic intent. While current PC games like NBA 2K27 support neural rendering, its performance cost has been significant.

AMD's next-gen GPUs, possibly powered by RDNA 5, could offer comparable performance to NVIDIA's RTX 5080. If AMD follows NVIDIA's lead, next-gen console games on Sony's Helix and PlayStation 6 may also benefit from neural rendering, potentially becoming as common as graphics upscaling.

Why Do U.S. Models of the iPhone 18 Pro Max, and Only U.S. Models of the 18 Pro Max, Use Qualcomm Cellular Modems Instead of Apple’s Own Superior C2 Modem?

Joe Rossignol at MacRumors over the weekend: Apple now says the iPhone 18 Pro has a C2 modem worldwide, while the iPhone 18 Pro Max uses the chip in every country except for the U.S.

  • U.S. iPhone 18 Pro Max models use Qualcomm cellular modems
  • Other countries' iPhone 18 Pro Max models use Apple's C2 modem
  • Apple's C2 modem supports ultra-fast mmWave 5G in the U.S.
