I think Valve has 3-5 until it gives it out to courier, not until it’s at the target. At least my package took exactly 5 days until I got **tracking number from GLS**. Then GLS took another 3 days delivering it for me, so 3-5 days Valve claimed was 8. (10 if you include weekend).

My friend ordered 4 minutes before me, and got it 3 days later (2 of which were another weekend).

FSR1 takes output image and uses AI to upscale it. As such it can be used from the system.

FSR2 is part of rendering pipeline of the game. It takes “movement vectors” that games provide to predict how pixels will look in the upscale, thus in general being more truthful to the expectation. This also means you can only get it from within the game.

FSR1 gives out watery paint look when used. FSR2 can introduce shimmering, especially in rapid movements. Ideally you should only use FSR with the quality preset on SD. Quality upscales from 480p to 720p, while performance uses 360p as base. The lower you go the less pixels it will have to figure out the final image and the worse it will look.

As this is called a guide I have some questions. Does your HDR look good? Do you tweak HDR settings at all?

For example when I enable HDR in Ori the whole screen gets darker, colors pop less. Some might say it looks more natural, but it also loses a lot of details. Almost all the leaves in the lower left corner are now just dark space, but with HDR off I can see each separate leaf in shadow. I thought HDR was all about bringing out more detail?

In Horizon when turned on the HDR also makes everything very dark by default. I’ve compared it to HDR on PS5 and it’s also dark, but the colors are much more lush, and it’s nowhere as dark. For example in the first interactive part of the game where Aloy is in a cave on SD she is basically black, while on PS5 she looks like someone standing in shadow. SD loses a lot of detail in shadowed area again. I tried adjusting sliders in HZD and by putting HDR brigthness on 60 and white point on 400 it was kind-of-close-to-PS5, but still looking noticeably worse. Note that my HDR TV is not top of the line, so I’d expect worse HDR on that.

Try lies of p with just your tongue!

HDR works:

• Star Ocean Divine Force
• Monster Hunter World
• Horizon Zero Dawn
• Like a Dragon Gaiden: The man who erased his name

By works I define “turns on and colours are changed, and HDR mode of the screen turns on”. The results might vary though. For example SO:DF is very bleak and washed out. Highlights max out at 400 nits if I enable HDR overaly. The game has no ingame HDR settings, so it’s pretty awful.

Start with Aperture Desk Job, after that any indie will work. Stardew Valley can keep you occupied for dozens of hundreds of hours and should handle downloads in the background.
