GeForce RTX users can now boost performance with NVIDIA DLSS in 50 games, with more integrations rolling out every month. DLSS offers AI powered effects using the RTX Tensor Cores and a deep learning neural network to boost frame rates and generate beautiful, sharp images for games, says NVIDIA. “DLSS delivers the performance headroom to maximize quality settings and increase output resolution”.
“Developers are adopting NVIDIA DLSS technology en masse, and this month nine games are either launching with DLSS or adding it for players via updates. DLSS momentum continues at full throttle with upgrades of the following games. NVIDIA DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling) is groundbreaking AI rendering technology that increases graphics performance using dedicated Tensor Core AI processors on GeForce RTX GPUs.”

DLSS stands for Deep Learning Super Sampling. It’s an upscaling technique that runs on the Nvidia GPU in real-time, allowing for higher detail levels at faster frame rates. DLSS 1.0 was rough in some titles, but DLSS 2.0 has been much better received. That’s particularly important for VR because it’s clear the headset manufacturers aren’t going to help much by lowering prices.
Nvidia s DLSS library of games now consists of 50 titles on May 18, 2021, 11:50 28 comments
What just happened? Nvidia s monthly update on DLSS-supported games adds nine new titles to the list, including the first VR ones No Man s Sky, Wrench, and Into the Radius. Besides VR titles, Nvidia also announced that No Man s Sky and Wrench now support DLSS in desktop mode, alongside other titles such as Amid Evil, Aron s Adventure, Everspace 2, Redout: Space Assault, Scavengers, and Metro Exodus PC Enhanced Edition.
When playing No Man s Sky at 4K resolution with DLSS Performance Mode enabled, players should expect up to a 70% increase in average FPS. In virtual reality mode, Nvidia claims that DLSS doubles VR performance at the Ultra graphics preset, which is apparently enough to keep the frame rate above 90 FPS on the Oculus Quest 2 headset when using a GeForce RTX 3080.
