I’m the only one outside Asus to have touched one (don’t ask me why!) and Asus wouldn’t let me publish pics that day... but this new leaked image is exactly the device I touched, minus new texturing. The new leak also corroborates a doubled 80Wh battery — and claims it’ll last 3 hours of heavy gaming.
DirectSR (don’t confuse with Auto SR) promises to let devs add the most popular upscalers to their games, all at once, with a single API. There’s no mention of frame gen or specific DLSS versions, but it does natively support AMD FSR 2.2 — so we’re at least getting a decent temporal upscaler right out the box.
Also, check this:
In addition to running super resolution natively on a D3D12 device GPU, DirectSR can also be used to perform super resolution on ML coprocessors, such as NPUs, using the same API surface. This offers flexibility for apps to free up GPU resources, or even take advantage of hardware-accelerated super resolution on available ML coprocessors when the GPU doesn’t natively support super resolution.

Last June, I wrote how the government was helping Big Telecom squeeze out city-run internet, in no small part because many states have laws that ensure telecom dollars wind up in private hands! Thankfully, one fewer state is doing that now:
The magic word is udm=14. Here’s how to use it. It’ll even purge your Google search results of other annoyances, too.
WordPad and Tips, too. We knew they were dead, but the big Windows update coming this fall will nix them for good:
*Please note that Cortana, Tips, and WordPad are removed after upgrading to Windows 11, version 24H2.
