Unveiled the first title that will officially support Intel XeSS

As the launch of Intel Arc Alchemist video cards for the desktop market approached, it was inevitable that video games optimized for the new architecture of the Santa Clara company would also begin to arrive. In particular, one of the most interesting features put on the plate by Arc is the XeSS (Xe Super Sampling) technology which, similar to the NVIDIA counterparts DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling) and AMD FSR (FidelityFX Super Resolution), aims to maximize the performance with the lowest possible loss of image quality.



Through complex spatial upscaling algorithms, it is possible to obtain an image with a higher resolution than the native one. However, operations of this kind could lead to ghosting and blur problems, which must be reduced. NVIDIA has managed to hugely improve the image quality achieved through its DLSS technology (which can only be used on RTX cards as it uses Tensor Cores), while, at present, AMD FSR is still not fully convincing.| ); }

The Ultra Quality mode will improve performance from 21% to 27%, respectively on 1440p and 4K resolutions, while with Ultra Performance you will be able to benefit from a better framerate from 97% to 153%. Obviously, you will need to conduct impartial tests to verify the manufacturer's information.
