In the gaming industry, very few series hold as much reputation as Call of Duty series. The series is known for its great campaign story and immersive multiplayer gameplay. The latest title, Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 will be released soon on October 25th.
The community’s expectation for the title is super high, but players are also scared for their storage space as it is estimated that Black Ops 6 will take around 150GB of storage. However, with the help of AMD’s latest technological breakthroughs, this issue might soon become a relic of the past.
Call of Duty Players Saved by the Latest Breakthrough From AMD
AMD is known for pushing the boundaries of technology with its advanced processors and graphics cards. It has recently made a breakthrough that will reduce the texture using a neural network, effectively reducing data size. According to TweakTown, this new technology called Neural Texture Block Compression has the potential to reduce the size of titles like Call of Duty by up to 70%.
After hearing this news, all the players worldwide are super excited as the franchise is notorious for its large file sizes, the estimated size of the upcoming Black Ops 6 is estimated to exceed 150GB. This innovation from AMD not only helps reduce the pressure on storage capacity but also enhances overall gaming performance as games will take less VRAM, resulting in faster loading times and improving gameplay fluidity.
