Razer reveals ‘Razer Cortex’ software

Matthew Wilson August 27, 2014 Software & Gaming

Razer is re-branding its Game Booster software and giving it price comparison capabilities. Razer Cortex will compare prices from reputable digital game outlets, such as Steam, Green Man Gaming, GOG and Gamers Gate to show you the cheapest price available.

In addition, the software's ‘game booster' section will allow you to automatically shut off background processes while games are running in order to maximise performance. You'll also be able to record gameplay sessions and track game-time across your entire library.

The software is currently in ‘early access', you have to sign up and wait in a que before you can download it. This is so the servers don't get flooded all at once, Razer Cortex will see its full release in a few weeks time.

Razer is aiming to make Cortex your main gaming client by grouping together all of the games on your PC, backing up your save files in the cloud and providing you with sharing capabilities.

KitGuru Says: Razer is a popular company amongst gamers so it stands a better chance to bring users over its client. However, Steam will likely remain the top choice for most PC gamers. What do you guys think? Have you tried Razer Cortex yet?

KitGuru Games: DLSS 5 misses the point

It would be hard to argue that NVIDIA’s DLSS technologies haven’t been a net positive to the PC space, with the machine-learning based upscaler successfully translating lower resolution inputs into a final image which is perceivably sharper while hogging fewer resources. Though somewhat more contentious, the next evolution of DLSS came in the form of Frame Generation, using ML in order to generate additional frames for high-refresh rate gaming. Both techniques can have their issues, but generally speaking they’ve allowed for more people to experience higher-end titles at increased frame rates. DLSS 5, however, takes a sharp pivot, with a very different end goal in mind than the performance-boosting versions that came before.
