007 First Light PC Review - DLSS Finally Fixed, But Other Issues Still Need Fixing

Thanks to Alienware for sponsoring DF PC performance reviews.

The short version

• To learn more about the Alienware AREA-51 Gaming Desktop, check out: This video was late, then delayed again as IO Interactive launched a DLSS fix, then unlaunched it owing to offline mode bugs, then launched it again - so where do we stand?
• We're looking at an impressive port overall, but there are issues: a lack of scalability in settings beyond console standards, highly taxing explosive effects and disappointing lack of FSR and XeSS features.
• Many thanks - once again - to Rayan for putting in the hard work on the analysis and settings selections.
