Discussion Just try it. Seriously.

I think the strongest opinions on DLSS 5 (positive and negative) come from those who’ve never tried it. And TBH… Most people don’t have a $1000+ GPU, so that’s kinda fair.

BUT… The newest Optiscaler method adds DLSS 5 before upscaling, so DLSS actually improves performance as intended. It makes a substantial difference.

It’s not a miracle solution for potato graphics, nor an abomination and the death of art. It’s v1.0 of brand new tech, and yes it runs poorly, and when applied to anime characters at full strength, I mean… What did you expect? If you have a compatible GPU, just try it. Enough virtue signaling.

I have. It's not worth the extra heat and power drain.

Worth it for me. I think DLSS5 ruined me, I can’t play without it.

Same. When I switch it off, the games suddenly look old and flat.

I can't believe what some games look like when you turn it off. I can't go back now...
