Nvidia Wants to Slop-ify Your PC Games With Its New AI Upscaler

Nvidia has announced DLSS 5, which will enhance in-game lighting effects and employ artificial intelligence to analyze games' color palettes and motion vectors, resulting in more lifelike scenes. The technology is designed to support resolutions up to 4K and will be integrated into existing titles such as Assassin’s Creed Shadows and The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered. Early demonstrations, such as in Resident Evil Requiem and Starfield, show character models that may appear overly polished or exaggerated, raising concerns about the balance between realism and artistic integrity. DLSS 5 is expected to be released in the fall, as Nvidia continues to refine its model. Currently, DLSS 4.5 competes with AMD’s FSR Redstone and Intel’s XeSS, offering superior detail preservation.

NVIDIA RTX Remix Logic Is Out Now, Allowing Modders to Add Dynamic FX to Classic PC Games

The RTX Remix Logic feature has launched through an update to the NVIDIA app, allowing modders to trigger graphics effects based on real-time in-game events without needing source code or engine access. There are over 30 in-game events that can serve as triggers, including player state, world bounding boxes, object state, time flow, and input. This feature can manipulate over 900 RTX Remix graphics parameters, such as lighting conditions, weather systems, material properties, post-processing effects, and path-traced volumetrics. A no-code node-based interface enables modders to easily implement this feature. RTX Remix Logic can be integrated into over 165 classic PC games. Additionally, new games supporting NVIDIA's DLSS technologies include Half Sword, which will feature DLSS 4 Multi Frame Generation, and Code Vein II, along with the free-to-play PvP shooter Highguard, both supporting DLSS Super Resolution.

Nvidia DLSS 4.5 doesn’t deliver upscaling miracles, but its most exciting feature is still to come

Nvidia has released DLSS 4.5, featuring a new Super Resolution upscaling model called Model M, which is available for over 400 games via the DLSS Override feature. This model uses a second-generation Transformer AI architecture, significantly improving image quality compared to earlier versions. It requires five times the compute power of the original transformer model and has been trained on a high-fidelity dataset for better scene interpretation. Users may experience slight performance impacts, especially on older graphics cards, but testing on an RTX 4080 Super showed minimal frame rate drops. A recent demonstration showcased DLSS 4.5's ability to upscale Red Dead Redemption 2 from 240p to 720p. Users can access DLSS 4.5 by updating the Nvidia App and selecting 'DLSS Override - Model Presets' in the settings.

AMD’s Redstone update could revitalize FSR for PC games – here’s why Nvidia should be worried

AMD has launched FSR Redstone, accessible through the AMD Adrenalin 25.12.1 driver, featuring FSR Frame Generation, Ray Regeneration, and Radiance Caching, along with enhanced FSR Upscaling technology, compatible exclusively with RDNA 4 hardware (Radeon RX 9060 XT and RX 9070 XT/RX 9070 GPUs). Ray Regeneration will debut in Call of Duty: Black Ops 7, with plans for future titles. The update aims to improve image quality and performance, closing the gap with Nvidia's DLSS 4 technology. However, it lacks backward compatibility with older GPUs, limiting its use to RDNA 4 hardware. FSR Radiance Caching is expected to enhance ray tracing performance in 2026, and the FSR Redstone SDK will facilitate easier integration into games.
