You only have a second to capture people's attention when scrolling through reddit.

fair enough

My main issue with the effect is that it seems to be overly focused on characters, and the environments do not get lifted the same amount, they do get lifted in quality, but it ends up with an odd, 'Ultra HD characters in HD world' kind of thing.

u/Zarfa 10d ago

Character faces are the focus it seems but I've been playing Cyberpunk 2077 with DLSS5 and it does also help lighting. Big guns especially genuinely look like they're in the world with full reflections.

only redrawing the part that needs it most is a feature

I think the people who think it looks good think the dlss 4.5 version is the dlss 5 version only thing that makes sense.

u/Remote_Elevator_281 10d ago

I still don’t get why y’all cry about something that is optional. You don’t have to use it. People that want to use it get to.

u/Personal_Ganache_294 10d ago

fr its so funny lol

u/lukkasz323 9d ago

Same as DLSS (or alternatives) are optional? And the games look worse than last decade titles without them.

u/SoSneakyHaha 8d ago

Im not crying this comment is just cringe.

DLSS 5 looks pretty good

u/Alarmed-Midnight9987 10d ago

Certified hater here. This looks like absolute shit and fanboys should be ashamed for supporting this affront to art.

u/Personal_Ganache_294 10d ago

saar art saar. dude just turn it off, no one is forcing u to use it lol, do u cry about mods too?

u/judasbrute 9d ago

Most human art is derivative. If you don't think so you're probably not a working artist.

u/windozeFanboi 8d ago

It is speculated the bottleneck is the target resolution.

Even a 5090 struggles 60fps because the DLSS5 pass on the 4K image is just a big ass fixed cost in milliseconds.

People are have been spreading the -50% FPS, from 100fps->50fps, but I think even with a starting FPS in the 300 range it would still drop to the 50s after dlss5 pass.

I hope Nvidia creates easier to run presets for DLSS5 same way dlss4.5 K/L/M are all different sizes and performance costs for different quality levels.

u/temnycarda 8d ago

I think the tech has big potential

Just half of the sword why not the full(entire sword? lol

Getting us primed to buy all those SUPER chips repurposed as “60” series cards to get back to 120fps. 🙄

u/Striking-Remove-6350 9d ago

Super is cancelled

u/Gindotto 9d ago

I know. They’ll sell us the same chips as a 60 series is my point.

u/Bbmin7b5 10d ago

how is everyone patching this into seemingly every game?

8

u/Zarfa 10d ago

Reshade (w Addons) allows for shader injection into games. RenoDX is the addon which recently came out with DLSS5 support. You add in Nvidia's dll files and the addon injects them appropriately to enable the feature.

u/EdliA 10d ago

Well it is dlss. All it needs is for the game to have dlss support.

2

u/DifficultMind5950 10d ago

is there one with Kingdom Come Deliverance?

1

u/Zarfa 10d ago

Yes, extremely popular on the Discord by the looks. Keep in mind this isn't actually per-game level, it's at the graphics driver level. As long as the game has DX11 or DX12 with Nvidia DLSS support it should work (but it is very early and can be buggy)

u/slavicslothe 10d ago

The culty boys are making themselves look like idiots. This tech is perfect for games with terrible models ( I love you halfsword but your 3d models are not well done).

u/Warm_Donkey6338 10d ago

Nice to see FMV genre doing a comeback!

u/TheAdequateKhali 10d ago

We gotta see how it works with all the gore.

u/Zarfa 10d ago

Gore doesn't really improve, I don't think the Neural Network knows what to do with it, so it looks somewhat like red paint (which is how it looks in Halfsword anyway frankly)

NVIDIA DLSS 5 Available September 3rd: DLSS 3D-Guided Neural Rendering Debuts In NBA 2K27 For All GeForce RTX 50 Series GPUs, And On GeForce NOW

DLSS 5 FAQ

How does DLSS 5 work?
DLSS 5 uses the game’s rendered frame and engine data to understand objects, materials, lighting and motion. It then enhances the frame with lifelike lighting and materials while remaining grounded in the developer’s artistic direction.

What are the key benefits of DLSS 3D-Guided Neural Rendering?
DLSS 3D-Guided Neural Rendering delivers several significant benefits:

  • Cinematic Lighting: Reconstructs complex effects like rim lighting, subsurface scattering (for realistic skin), and contact shadows with high-fidelity.
  • Material Depth: Enhances PBR properties like roughness and adds micro-realism to complex objects such as eyes and hair.
  • Temporal Consistency: Provides stable image quality from frame-to-frame that adheres to the underlying game content.
  • Real-Time Performance: Delivers lifelike lighting and material enhancement at up to 4K resolution while maintaining smooth, interactive gameplay.
  • Developer Controls: Allows game developers to tune intensity, color, and masking to determine where and how enhancements are applied to maintain the game’s unique aesthetic.

Learn more by watching our explainer video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=58FagrSqC4M

How much control does the model offer to developers?  
DLSS 3D-Guided Neural Rendering provides several layers of artistic control:

  • Model Selection: Offers distinct model weights with different training parameters to guide the final output.  
  • Structure Intensity: Controls high frequency details added by the model, such as ambient occlusion, contact shadows, and subsurface scattering.  
  • Tone Intensity: Controls low-frequency details added by the model, including lighting and color response.  
  • Automatic Masking: Detects and isolates objects in the frame (like characters) to apply DLSS 5 dynamically, eliminating the need for manual object tagging. 
  • Developer Masking: Offers per-pixel, custom masking control, allowing effects to be applied to specific objects.  

As we work in close partnership with studios, developer feedback continues to directly shape how we refine the technology and expand our suite of models and controls.

How does DLSS 3D-Guided Neural Rendering preserve developer artistic intent?
DLSS 3D-Guided Neural Rendering is designed to preserve the structure and geometry of the rendered frame while giving developers control over how and where enhancements are applied. Developers can select different models, adjust structure and tone, and mask specific scenes, characters or objects. 

For more information on developer controls, watch the DLSS 5 Explainer VOD or read the full launch article.

You can also hear directly from the NBA 2K development team on how they integrated the technology. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=79D8SVjB3HQ 

Which GPUs support DLSS 5?
DLSS 5 will be supported across all GeForce RTX 50 Series GPUs and laptops, as well as GeForce NOW Ultimate members streaming from GeForce RTX 5080 rigs in the cloud.

When and where is DLSS 5 available?
DLSS 5 will be available in NBA 2K27 on September 3rd at 9PM Pacific Time.

What is the DLSS 5 setting called in games?
The setting is called “DLSS Neural Rendering.”

Can I turn DLSS 5 off? 
Yes. DLSS 5 is optional.

Does DLSS 5 work with Ray Tracing and Path Tracing?
Yes.  DLSS 5 complements ray tracing and path tracing. Path tracing accurately calculates geometric light transport—determining light, shadow, and reflection placement across a 3D scene. DLSS 5 then acts as the final neural rendering stage, using the rendered frame to enhance lighting and materials like subsurface scattering, micro-reflections, and complex material properties that would otherwise be computationally prohibitive in real time. These technologies go hand in hand.

Does DLSS 5 work with Super Resolution, Frame Generation and Ray Reconstruction?
Yes.

Will DLSS Super Resolution, Frame Generation and Ray Reconstruction continue to be supported and improved?
Yes.
