Nvidia published new comparison screenshots today, where the changes to faces are as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/tech\/986378\/nvidia-dlss-5-launch-nba-2k27\">subtle as they are<\/a> in <em>NBA 2K27<\/em>.

DLSS 5 will now appear in <em>Hogwarts Legacy<\/em> on November 5th, and it\u2019s also coming to <em>Where Winds Meet<\/em> late next month.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">Nvidia is also improving the performance hit of DLSS 5 with an October update to the neural rendering system that should make it twice as fast on RTX 50-series GPUs and the upcoming RTX Spark laptops. \u201cThe DLSS 5 October update shrinks the footprint by 24 percent to roughly 118 million parameters while reducing 4K VRAM usage by 20 percent,\u201d s<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nvidia.com\/en-us\/geforce\/news\/dlss-5-faster-ai-model-hogwarts-legacy-rtx-spark-laptops\/\">ays Nvidia\u2019s Andrew Burnes<\/a>.

The updated AI model uses a \u201cfaster and lighter algorithm to boost frame rates\u201d for Frame Gen, Multi Frame Gen, and Dynamic Multi Frame Gen. Nvidia says it has \u201cminor trade-offs in image quality,\u201d and that performance mode for Frame Generation should now be up to 35 precent faster.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/news\/1009904\/dlss-5-hogwarts-legacy-changes-improvements\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When Nvidia originally showed off DLSS 5 earlier this year, the technology immediately got branded as gen AI for video games.
