ew, FXAA quality AA? pass I would rather have no AA.
Nathaniel Lopez
>$150 for GTX1080 graphics
bargain of the century
Ryan Green
The cable is sharper than FXAA.
Christopher Reyes
And let me guess, you cannot see faster then 30FPS?
Levi Mitchell
>$150 is worth a little more anti aliasing
Christian Brooks
You've basically described the GPU industry.
Angel Taylor
FXAA doesn't look that bad to my eye at 4K.
Daniel Nguyen

>doesn't work as good
Nathan Stewart
The cable doesn't make consoles magically run games at 60fps
Brayden Brown
Does this increase input latency?
Joshua Lewis
That's most likely a gimmick product.

Its significantly better than having no AA, and doesn't have the same over all blur smoothing effect that FXAA does. In Hitman it seemed close to the in engine SMAA. Pretty impressive. If PCPer's assessment that it adds no latency on the signal processing then this is a pretty big jump forward. Separate ASIC edge smoothing would be a huge boon to the gaming market. If these tech keeps evolving it could have pretty big implications for the display and GPU industries.

Some cable boxes have really shitty upscaling, it's usually better to leave it to the TV if it's not a chink piece of shit
But if so this might be an option.
Jack Peterson
>not using AA free from any performance impact
If this little ASIC could muster an 8X pass then that'd pretty much solve the issue of jaggies forever. Resolution and pixel density is increasing. We aren't going to need much more to increase image fidelity and get it to a level where its imperceptible from reality.
I'd be super interested in seeing this decapped and examined by chipworks. It'd wager its using commodity tier 40nm bulk silicon They likely could achieve that performance right now if they had the money to pay for a newer process.
Sebastian Evans
If you connect two together, can you upscale 480p to 4k?
Xavier Smith
Would this have any use on a retropie system, all them old games getting new crisp graphics or am I out my mind?
What if you connected 4 of them, can you see into the future?
Owen Cooper
It would probably just look like one of those shitty emulator screen filters.
Christian Brooks
Na, this shitty product is doing a simple edge detect blur.
It's pretty obvious on this comparison image.
pcper.com
While the outlines of character models are nicely softened the edges of the road, the circular paving stones and bench around the tree are hardly touched.
It's pretty much shit. And you have to power it.
It will definitely increase input latency because it is modifying the frames as they pass through it.

William Anderson
>simple edge detect blur
That's literally how FXAA works. Edge detect is depth-aware, though.
Austin Cox
you can run at lower resolution without AA
Dylan Sanders
>It will definitely increase input latency
>Comparing a standard HDMI cable to the mCable, we saw no additional lag introduced by the signal processing.
Robert Fisher
Look at their fucking test though.
It's fucking PONG.
Chase Long

How about no
Hunter Collins

>Buy absolute bottom tier GPU
>Then buy 150 dollar cable to reduce jaggies
Should've put that money on better GPU for same effect.

dont forget it also increases latency
Easton Gonzalez
>paying this much money so virtual grass looks slightly less shitty
Why are gamers so stupid?
