Have you ever wondered why RAM prices are going up this year? Everyone is rightfully saying that AI is the reason for the price hike, but it’s hard to palpably see why. Today, NVIDIA is showing off where its hard-earned profits are going by revealing DLSS 5.

For gamers who don’t have a particularly strong machine, NVIDIA’s DLSS technology upscales a game’s graphics quality and frame rate to artificially keep up with newer hardware. A few months ago, the company unveiled DLSS 4.5, which marks the latest step to help games sparkle. Today, with DLSS 5, the technology is going all-in on AI.

In a tech demo, NVIDIA showcased the latest version of the technology. This time, the feature will use photoreal lighting and materials to alter graphics. It can allegedly analyze a scene’s elements — including hair, fabric, and translucent skin — based simply on a single frame.

The demo’s most prominent example is Resident Evil Requiem. Grace Ashcroft, the gamer’s protagonist, evolves from her doll-like appearance into… well, something you might see on an AI-generated mobile game ad.

NVIDIA claims that the new version will make games look closer to real life. The jury is still out, especially with such a low sample size. However, in this writer’s humble opinion, it’s gonna be a no for me, dawg. I’d rather play with what the developer originally intended for their game than with yet another generic AI filter.

The new feature is rolling out to some of the biggest games today including Assassin’s Creed Shadows, Hogwarts Legacy, Resident Evil Requiem, and Where Winds Meet.

With the Galaxy Z TriFold, Samsung is hoping to take the infantile tri-fold smartphone market by storm. For the meantime, however, the band’s dream is short-lived. Samsung is reportedly done selling the Galaxy Z TriFold to the public.

According to South Korean outlet Dong-A Ilbo, Samsung has stopped selling the tri-fold smartphone. The alleged decision comes only three months after the brand unveiled the device.

Though the report seems to hint some doom and gloom for the brand’s new segment, it’s not entirely unexpected. Since this is the first of its kind for the company, the Galaxy Z TriFold hasn’t really meant to be a bestseller, merely a trial run for early adopters.

In context, Samsung’s experiment is still a success. The phone sold out in Korea almost instantly after sales first opened, despite selling for an eye watering US$ 2,899. Additionally, we got our hands on the phone, and we were rightfully impressed.

That said, Samsung probably isn’t done with the segment just yet. The brand will likely develop more variants, especially in response to this iteration’s success in the market.

But also, take this all with a grain of salt. Samsung has not confirmed that its first tri-fold phone is actually done for the day. There is a reason to keep selling a tri-fold phone today. After all, Huawei is still ruling the segment with last year’s Mate XT.
