Nvidia is revolutionizing gaming performance and visuals with the introduction of DLSS 4 at CES 2025. This groundbreaking technology, exclusive to the new GeForce RTX 50 Series GPUs and laptops, introduces Multi-Frame Generation—a significant leap forward in AI-powered upscaling.
Nvidia's DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling) uses Tensor Cores on GeForce RTX GPUs to enhance gaming performance and image quality. By upscaling lower-resolution images, it delivers sharper visuals and smoother gameplay while minimizing hardware demands. Having evolved significantly since its introduction six years ago, DLSS continues to redefine game rendering.
DLSS 4, unveiled at CES 2025, is a major upgrade specifically for GeForce RTX 50 Series GPUs. Its Multi-Frame Generation feature can generate up to three additional frames per rendered frame, resulting in up to an 8X performance increase. This allows for 4K resolution at 240 FPS with full ray tracing. Furthermore, DLSS 4 pioneers the use of real-time transformer-based AI models in graphics, leading to enhanced image quality, improved temporal stability, and reduced artifacts.
GeForce RTX 50 Series Unveils DLSS Multi-Frame Generation
Multi-Frame Generation's efficiency stems from a combination of hardware and software innovations. New AI models accelerate frame generation by 40%, decrease VRAM usage by 30%, and optimize rendering to reduce computational costs. Features like hardware Flip Metering and upgraded Tensor Cores ensure smooth frame pacing and high-resolution support. Games like Warhammer 40,000: Darktide already showcase the benefits—faster frame rates and lower memory usage. DLSS 4 also integrates Ray Reconstruction and Super Resolution, utilizing vision transformers for highly detailed, stable visuals, especially in ray-traced scenes.
DLSS 4's improvements are backward compatible, benefiting current and future RTX users. At launch, 75 games and applications will support Multi-Frame Generation, with over 50 integrating the new transformer-based AI models. Major titles such as Cyberpunk 2077 and Alan Wake 2 will have native support, with more to follow. Nvidia's application even includes an Override feature to enable Multi-Frame Generation and other enhancements for older DLSS integrations. This makes Nvidia DLSS a leading force in gaming innovation, delivering unparalleled performance and visual fidelity for all GeForce RTX gamers.
