Removing Artifacts and Enhancing Dark-Scene Clarity
As detailed in report #5521, initially cranking up the AI sharpening made the edges look like a jagged staircase. While GPU-Z showed VRAM temps fluctuating between 75% - 82℃, the visuals were a disaster. I dived into the filter panel, slashed the sharpening weight from 70% down to 40%, and enabled the Deep Learning Denoiser. I also tweaked the shadow contrast into a tighter 55% - 60% range to prevent crushing. Comparing the auras before and after, the grain was largely neutralized with a 96.1% noise reduction rate. The images are now crystal clear. However, there's a catch: in high-action combat, the AI processing overhead introduces a subtle input lag. It's not a dealbreaker, but it definitely isn't a zero-latency experience, slightly blurring the line between responsiveness and visual fidelity.
