New Feature Release - Buffer Cache Rewrite! (Patreon)

Hey Patrons! We hope that you’re all healthy and staying safe!

We've got another super exciting release for you... Something that you may have heard about, but weren't quite sure what it was... Buffer Cache Rewrite! (BCR, as we've been calling it).

We’re very excited to offer you yet another huge improvement to yuzu's GPU rendering performance, now available to our Early Access members. With this change, we emulate a very important optimization path that the Switch's NVIDIA Maxwell GPU uses, which benefits almost all games. This change really improves performance on both AMD GPUs with our Vulkan backend and NVIDIA GPUs with our OpenGL backend!

Jump right in to learn more about the technical details of this feature, and what to expect with performance improvements!

This feature is now available to our Patrons in the latest Early Access builds of yuzu.

We'd love to hear how you are enjoying this release, or if you have any feedback. As always – thank you for your support, and stay safe!
