Intel powers up XeSS upscaling to deliver faster frame rates for Arc GPUs – up to 30% quicker – and better image quality

Intel has unleashed a new version of its XeSS upscaling tech that rivals Nvidia DLSS and AMD FSR for speeding up frame rates in PC games. Intel XeSS 1.3 is fresh on the scene, although note that it’s still in preview testing right now, with Team Blue claiming some decent performance boosts compared to XeSS … Read more

Combining AI models using depth upscaling for extra performance

A new technique in AI model development called “depth upscaling,” has been used to create the Solar 10.7 B model. This model, despite having only 11 billion parameters, outperforms models with up to 30 billion parameters, even surpassing the recent Mixtral 8X7B model. Depth upscaling involves merging multiple AI models by concatenating different layers from … Read more
