Do amphere GPU’s contain hardware for decompression, like the consoles?

Unsure if it’s baked into hardware for the 30 series, as it’s also available on RTX20 series

By virtue of being available on RTX20’s it would seem to be a software solution utilising cuda or tensor cores perhaps

Of course it will be noticable. The difference in performance is just too big. Though the XSX is still cheaper than building a PC with those components and as mentioned the convenience factor has a big plus on the console side of things. Not to mention that from the output standpoint (HDMI 2.1) they are on par.

The console experience will be as smooth as the current PC experience due to 120Hz and VRR for those have TVs that support HDMI 2.1 (like me).

Good points.

They have at least hardware accelation for decompressing video content. But I’m not sure zlib compression is included there. Afaik h.264 doesn’t use it.
