@@RevinSOR13 to me the Switch version is the last way I would consider playing a shooter. Nintendo's joystick on the Switch are way too small with very little granular control. I like their pro controller but their joycons are god awful. I like the feel of the controllers in the hands but I can say that those joysticks are definitely the least accurate of the modern consoles. Doom I feel does more fit KBM not for comfort but just for the custom layouts and the fact a mouse is both granular and able to flick at the same time while on a controller you have to be much more careful to do such. It definitely is more necessary on Doom on the higher difficulty settings where you need to literally master the gunplay and get a keen grip of your awareness. For me, in general I do prefer a controller to a KBM for comfort as well, but some games are naturally intense or have really spastic controls so KBM tend to be better in that situation. More often though I switch to KBM if a game has lousy sensitivity like Cyberpunk 2077 where you either get granular and slow or fast but inaccurate. Feel it has to do with games that don't allow you to mess with the turning delay or camera acceleration. On KBM zero acceleration feels perfectly 1:1, on a controller, it feels really jarring. But yes, as a whole I use controllers over KBM. Hell I'm much better with gyros and a controller than a KBM. My control scheme of choice. Shame most games still don't use it, and on PC while normally you could now that games are locking you to KBM or controller you can't in those either. Sucks as it feels so good.

Consoles have a unified pool of memory that's fast (especially in the new generation of consoles) but not quite _that_ fast - the issue is that the VRAM in PC GPUs is dedicated to texture data and the memory controllers are completely optimized for texture access in a way that makes 16x anisotropic filtering only a moderate load. On the other hand since consoles don't really have VRAM, but instead use a generalized version of VRAM with memory controllers that need to access that memory both in bulk (for the GPU) and granularly (for the CPU), 16x AF represents a real load on the memory bus - a bus that could probably be better used for something else at that moment.

DLSS is the best thing to happen to games in a long time.I love it.

It is important to have highest fps possible in this game and i was amazed how my 3080 managed to easily maintain 144 fps with everything on ultranightmare + rt ON, insanely good job by developers, game looks stunning with rt!

As cool as RT can look from a technical perspective, in a sense it looks pretty weird because metal is never that polished. Everything looks like it has Vaseline on it, and IMO reflections look especially weird when there is no RT-GI. It makes it look like the reflections don't belong when the GI doesn't match. I think games should always prioritize RT-GI over RT reflections.

Absolutely fantastic coverage, as always! Been waiting every day for the DF coverage of this DOOM eternal update. Was a great surprise to get home from a very long day at work and see this video up. Time to play Doom now!

Great video Alex, it was lovely hearing both the OG Doom ost AND the OG DF Comparison music, very nostalgic.

Thanks for the tips Alex. I'm getting amazing performance on my 3060 TI at 4k with your suggestions.

When I heard RT was introduced for DOOM Eternal, I thought uh oh. My poor little 6800XT will go from 165+ fps steady on Ultra Nightmare preset @1440P down to probably 50 fps. Decided to try it anyway. Much to my suprise it does not! At least in the first 3 levels I am steady 150+ fps at all times. I am very pleased. Unlike my experience in Cyberpunk 2077 with RT where fps tanked with max RT. The engine for this game is gold level optimized to say the least! Might play through again.

If you have poor performance when starting up the game with ray tracing and DLSS, where it locks to around 24-26fps, just set the texture pool to medium, _wait 10 seconds_ (important) and it will rev up to a normal fps. You can set it back higher after that.
