Source9Measurementpcgamer.com/hardware/gaming-pcs/atomman-g1-pro-reviewRead 15 October 2026All rows at 1440p from the review's gaming charts, on the review's default profile. Cyberpunk 2077 uses the Ray Tracing Medium preset. The upscaling row uses DLSS Quality with frame generation x2 (CNN model) per the text. Black Myth: Wukong's upscaling row is described only as DLSS. The review does not state upscaling for Avatar, Baldur's Gate 3 and Metro Exodus, so none is stored. Tom's Guide also publishes 1080p results but names neither the preset nor the power mode, so they are not stored.
