"83% of 40 series gamers turn RT on"...

OK, and where are the stats on how many turn it off after?
And the other 17%? Imagine paying for a 40-series card and not using RT...

Ohh NO, someone over here is exposing our deceptive PR strategies! Get him! :D Recessions are the perfect time for scam artists out to make a quick buck of naive and desperate people. And you have tons of people happy to fall for it. Instead of starting to learn to think for themselfs you have folks out there just smelling a bashing of their loyal brand. Which is fine because it just exposes the intellect of those people you're dealing with.

The Nvidia statistic (or let's say the part of the statistic they used in their favour) just shows that xx% activated RT/DLSS in a given timeframe once. It doesn't tell you how long, the percentage they used it in their whole gaming time. They also don't tell you if they have designed their software in a deceptive way to steer customers into clicking on it. They also don't tell you if they have payed off game dev's into designing their setups/games in a deceptive way to peddle folks into activating given features. Deceptive PR and statistics manipulation is a science, since decades, invented by Edward Bernays.

they should not be allowed to include DLSS as benchmark performance in their promotional materials
nvidia should improve real performance and lower prices.
not interested in fake frames that create on screen glitches.
Agreed. Upscaling is a separate issue and should not be included in GPU reviews. It's a given that upscaling reduces quality for playable framerates and the various technologies can be compared, but not in a GPU comparison. If RT is a feature, then sure, add it in. But apples for apples, not apples to bananas.

Very informative... not. You "need" ray tracing because marketing screams it's the best thing since sliced bread. Which also means you need DLSS to get playable frame rates with RT. Boom, marketing fuel, people LOVE those things and if you don't, well, you are stupid, poor, nobody loves you and your cat will probably die soon.
I tried ray tracing in Cyberpunk 2077. I can see a slight difference on screenshots but when I'm playing the damn game I have other things on my mind than looking at puddles to see a perfectly reflected lamp. I know there are people who get unreasonably obsessive and aggressive about such things, like the guy arguing somewhere that Bioshock was a worthless game because he found a texture which "looked pixelated". I'm not joking, such people really exist. Maybe I'm just old, vanity seems to be the main concern for modern society.

What I find interesting here is how easily people gloss over the fact that a hardware manufacturer apparently collects large amount of detailed data about software people use.

4090 here, latest nvidia driver and smearing/ghosting all over the place suddenly. I'm not sure if path tracing just to blame because I'm seeing it now turned off as well, perhaps not as bad. watch a person or car moving laterally - severe smear/trail happening now. Hope the 'tech preview' is improved beyond this as PT I agree has so much visual potential and would be great for my 2k >100fps target on the 4090
