vendor lock in is not what you think it means.

Heck with windows 95 you used to have to pay for IE, you had to get the Windows 95 plus package or you had to buy IE separately.

The software is probably fine, it is just that the software needs hardware AI acceleration in order to create the quality image we expect from DLSS and XeSS.

I’m quite frustrated with AMD for not having true Tensor equivalent cores on RDNA 3. They have AI accelerators but they don’t have all the capabilities of the Tensor cores that allow them to do hardware accelerated upscaling.
