THE Nvidia recently announced its new line of 40 series graphics cards. RTX4080 And RTX-4090 showed impressive results, however, what attracted the most attention in the whole presentation was the new one DSLS 3 – an evolution of technology DLSS which has been implemented in the tabs RTX from the 20 series. But after all, what is this technology and how important it is DSLS 3?
What is DLSS?
DLSS stands for Super deep learning sampling (in English), a technology of rise to power created by himself Nvidia to use on your line cards RTX. or DLSS uses automatic learning (machine learning) for renders high quality graphics without losing performancerequiring much less Material computer and offering smoother frame rates for the most demanding games.
How DLSSplayers can enable other newer rendering techniques such as laser trace (ray tracing) without worrying about the drop in performance in the heavier areas of the game, as the artificial intelligence will reconstruct this image at a lower resolution, but without losing much in graphics quality. In the game, the user can choose between different quality profiles, being able to configure as the DLSS it works on your machine, then prioritize image quality or performance.
In the beginning, the DLSS 1.0 it has only been used in a few games, recreating real-time footage with less pixels, which reduces the processing power of the graphics card and CPU required. However, few games were compatible with the technology, because artificial intelligence had to be “trained” from Software before, but that changed with the arrival of DSS 2.0.
THE Nvidia delivered on DSS 2.0 with a technique for more efficient use of the table tension cores RTX, ensuring higher frame rates in games, more solid and realistic visuals, and without the need for neural network training, gaining support for more games. Until then, all advice RTX The 20 and 30 series supported the technology, but the Nvidia already confirmed that things will change with the DSLS 3.
What is DLSS 3?
When will the new license plates be announced RTX4080 And RTX-4090a Nvidia also revealed the DSLS 3promising improvements up to 4 times the performance compared to native rendering. Additionally, the manufacturer confirms that more than 35 games are already equipped with the new technology, with the first games due out in October. Unfortunately, with a controversial decision, the Nvidia confirmed that the DLSS 3 will be exclusive to 40 series cardsexcluding users of the more powerful 30 series cards.
In some events, the Nvidia revealed that they like the games Cyberpunk 2077 it ran at around 98 frames per second. In terms of comparison, at higher graphics settings, the Game it runs at just 22 frames with native resolution. Using the older version of the technology, the DSS 2.0or Cyberpunk 2077 it only reaches 60 frames per second.
the basis of technology DLSS remains the same in its third generation, as it will continue to deliver high performance in games while maintaining an image quality rendering. However, the decision to make the technology unique for the plates RTX4080 And RTX-4090 it didn’t go very well for fans and enthusiasts. According to Nvidiathis decision was made because DLSS 3 uses the new chips voltage and the optical accelerator of the new 4000 cardswhich makes it impossible to implement on previous generation cards.
More than 35 games have already been confirmed with support for the new one DLSSincluding some big names like HITMAN 3, A Plague Story: Requiem, Cyberpunk 2077, Flight simulator, Dying Light 2 Stay human, Legacy of Hogwartsand a remaster of Gate – who receives the famous laser trace in a free update in November.
FSR, the DLSS alternative
THE Nvidia pioneer in creating technology for at the top of the line with artificial intelligence, encouraging other competitors to create their own solutions, such as FidelityFX Super Resolution (FSR) given MY GOD. The technology also recreates frames rendered at a lower resolution to give gamers smoother graphics. However, unlike DLSSor FSR it doesn’t use Artificial Intelligence to render its images, it uses its own processing power of your graphics card to recreate images in real time.
An interesting point is that technology FSR it is not exclusive to the boards of directors of MY GODthat is, even card users Nvidia they can enjoy performance improvements for their favorite games, from 10 series cards to the latest RTX. or FSR offers several performance modes that prioritize image quality or performance and can be changed by the player at any time until he finds the most pleasing setting.
But then the DSLS 3 enough to get you shelling out for a brand new one RTX4080 Where is it 4090? Tell us in the comments!
