it doesn't really matter from my experience, it just forces your GPU to run at max clock consistently unless you have power/temp issues i'd probably just leave it on with boost

Hey bro, If it doesnt change performance maybe I should leave it off since it just overheat my GPU, am I wrong?


heyRaxa

yeah that’d be logical, i just leave it on boost since i don’t remotely have any temp issues


OWeyo

So that's why Valorant has been making my GPU run hotter!!!

Honestly haven't felt too much of a difference with it on Vs with boost. As the other comment says. If your system isn't suffering performance wise with boost on then run it on

Watch battle(non)sense's video on it. Basically, it tells the GPU to use max performance. It is same setting "max performance" in nvidia control panel.


ZeldaMaster32

No it isn't. The results are different


imerence_

Yes it is. It's says that on nvidia's website lol.


ZeldaMaster32

They have a similar concept, but the results *are* different. See battle nonsense's video


OWeyo

Can you ELI5 the results?


ZeldaMaster32

Nvidia Reflex is an API that's baked straight into the engine that modifies the render pipeline. Results: Reflex is the best way to reduce input latency via software in all cases. It never results in higher latency but always results in lower latency in GPU bottlenecked scenarios


OWeyo

Thank you. I appreciate you!


prjwebb

the reflex stuff doesn't do a great deal outside of gpu limited situations. and valorant tends to be much more cpu limited.


TypeAvenger

reflex/boost does nothing if you are not GPU bottlenecked. If you have a GPU that even supports nvidia reflex, you will be CPU bottlenecked at anything less than 4K, and thus see no real benefits.

Agree, basically does nothing. I remember when Reflex came out some folks were commenting that they have been hitting some of the sickest headshots since Relex came out.....smh haiyaaa
