resolve higher quality images without the need for certain parts of input data, suggesting to us that it\u2019ll still produce a clean image from an imperfect source. It\u2019ll also, as a result, decrease the amount of memory required to run and reduce GPU processing times.<\/p>\n<p>So, in short, it\u2019ll produce a cleaner image quicker with less memory \u2013 all things, we can agree, sound like positives overall.<\/p>\n<p>Sony also seems to be aware that some games have been suffering with artifacting issues, and so it\u2019s built a tool which can help developers detect those issues quicker. The theory being, we suppose, that if the problems are easier to find they can be fixed must faster.<\/p>\n<p>The downside to all this is it sounds like existing games will need to be patched to take advantage of the new features, so you\u2019ll be relying on the support of your favourite developers yet again.<\/p>\n<p>However, if it\u2019s able to get the tech into the hands of Rockstar as early as possible, then there\u2019s every chance GTA 6 may ship with these features at launch.
