Always reserved for the only ones graphics cards RTX 4000, DLSS 3 supports more and more games.
At the time of the GeForce RTX 4090 test, we were able to benefit from a preview version of Cyberpunk 2077 to show you the benefits of DLSS 3. From now on, it is no longer necessary to take our word for it: you can test it… provided you have an RTX 4000, of course.
Boost performance
Indeed, after several months of waiting, NVIDIA and CD Projekt RED have just deployed the latest update for Cyberpunk 2077, and with it, DLSS 3 is finally in order. After downloading the patch, just go to the game options to activate it.
Evolution of NVIDIA’s super-sampling technique, DLSS 3 goes much further than previous versions, and its promoter does not hesitate to speak of a process ” revolutionary “. NVIDIA introduces what it calls the Optical Flow Accelerator, which analyzes two sequential frames of the game to derive a ” optical flow field in order to take information about the direction and the speed of the pixels.
Next, the optical flow accelerator analyzes particles, shadows, reflections and lights. DLSS 3 then adds motion vector analysis to track geometric displacements in the scene and combines this multiple information. For each pixel, the DLSS 3 image generation engine decides how to use these elements to create intermediate images and imagine them before they are even rendered.
Preparing the ground for future updates
In Cyberpunk 2077, this should also make it possible to activate all the ray tracing options without fear, the performance should remain at a high level. DLSS 3 is also progressing in its frame generation for “ better leverage game engine data, improve UI stability and image quality during fast movements “.
Beyond the superlatives evoking a visually stunning gaming experience ” Where ” expansive cityscapes that use subtle shadows to define depth “, NVIDIA also tells us that the DLSS 3 prepares the ground for the future update Ray Tracing: Overdrive Mode which should arrive soon in Cyberpunk 2077.
Finally, even if the CD Projekt RED game monopolizes all the attention of NVIDIA, it is not the only one to receive the reinforcement of DLSS 3 today. Indeed, Dying Light 2: Stay Human get the same treatment.
