DLSS 2.3 – How to Get More FPS From Your GPU

Getting more FPS out of your GPU is every gamer’s dream. With NVIDIAs latest update to their AI-powered DLSS, all your dreams can become a reality. 

With Deep Learning Super Sampling (DLSS), NVIDIA offers gamers an almost too good be true feature: Same PC + Same visual quality = Higher FPS. What’s more, all NVIDIA RTX GPUs can utilise this innovative technology in a range games. 

Same Graphics Card, More Power 

We promise it’s not black magic, DLSS uses a highly complex image enhancement technique. To oversimplify the process, games are rendered by your GPU in a lower resolution and then the image is upscaled using an AI-supported neural network.  

4K Quality, With just 1080p System Requirements 

To play at 4K with any reasonable FPS is still out of the reach of the majority of gamers. This is especially true in current generation AAA games. Thanks to DLSS this is no longer the case! Your GPU only has to render the game in a lower resolution such as 1080p. This is then upscaled by DLSS thanks to the AI tensor cores on RTX GPUs. Notably, this process is able to enhance your games without any noticeable drawbacks, perfect for finally being able to enjoy ray tracing in the latest games.  

The Perfect Complement to Ray Tracing  

Overall, DLSS promises to achieve a significant performance gain in games, which will allow you to play at higher settings or enjoy higher FPS with your existing settings. DLSS then is perfect for enjoying the performance-hungry ray tracing. One of RTX graphics cards main selling points is the introduction of real-time ray tracing, which boasts truly beautiful and realistic lighting. However, this feature requires a hefty PC in most games that support it. DLSS offers the ideal solution to these requirements and should help display games smoothly with ray tracing turned on.
