Exciting Features of DLSS 4 for GeForce RTX GPUs
NVIDIA recently showcased its latest advancements in graphics technology at CES 2025, introducing the GeForce RTX 50 Series with the RTX 5090 and RTX 5070 models. A highlight of this new series is the cutting-edge Deep Learning Super Sampling (DLSS) 4, which promises to significantly enhance gaming performance by up to 8 times compared to native rendering.
While the new feature called Multi Frame Generation is exclusively available for the GeForce RTX 50 Series, which includes enhanced Tensor Cores for improved AI performance, all NVIDIA RTX graphics cards, such as the 40, 30, and 20 Series, will receive various improvements through the DLSS 4 update.
Among the many enhancements, DLSS 3 Frame Generation is being refined to boost performance while lowering memory usage. This optimization will benefit gamers using the GeForce RTX 40 Series, while the RTX 30 and RTX 20 Series will also enjoy upgrades from the comprehensive set of DLSS 4 technologies.
Key Features of DLSS 4
Here are some prominent features associated with DLSS 4 and their compatibility across NVIDIA's graphics card range:
- DLSS Multi Frame Generation: This new feature leverages AI to generate multiple frames—three frames instead of one in the existing Frame Generation. Supported by: GeForce RTX 50 Series.
- DLSS Frame Generation: This feature sees increased performance and reduced VRAM usage, making it easier to run demanding games. Supported by: GeForce RTX 50 Series and GeForce RTX 40 Series.
- DLSS Ray Reconstruction: This upgrade offers improved stability and lighting detail when enabled alongside ray tracing features. Supported by: GeForce RTX 50 Series, GeForce RTX 40 Series, GeForce RTX 30 Series, and GeForce RTX 20 Series.
- DLSS Super Resolution (Beta): The foundational AI upscaling feature is set to gain greater stability, reduced ghosting, better detail during motion, and smoother edges in scenes. Supported by: GeForce RTX 50 Series, GeForce RTX 40 Series, GeForce RTX 30 Series, and GeForce RTX 20 Series.
Enhanced Anti-Aliasing and Additional Features
The DLAA (Deep Learning Anti-Aliasing) technology is also seeing improvements, resulting in a more stable gaming experience with better motion clarity. This feature is supported across the GeForce RTX 50, 40, 30, and 20 Series.
A notable addition is the DLSS Override options for Frame Generation, Model Presets, and Super Resolution, allowing players to use these new features in games that do not officially support them, provided through the NVIDIA App.
Overall, DLSS 4 represents a significant leap forward in NVIDIA’s graphics capabilities, offering enhanced performance and functionality across a wide range of compatible GPUs.
