Bwahahaha!

Open source code /doubles/ your performance?

Fucking wow, Nvidia truly has /the best/ software engineers.

What a fucking joke.

That's the wrong take here.

DLSS2 doesn't have frame generation. Nvidia refuses to add support for DLSS3 to their older cards so the open source community ported FSR3 which has frame generation (and is open source).

By all metrics DLSS3 is superior to FSR3, but that doesn't help Nvidia 3xxx/2xxx owners at all. Nvidia is a very skilled company, just greedy little absolute shits. This whole debacle mirrors G-sync vs. Freesync (which is the basis for the VESA standard VRR).

I thought Nvidea backtracked on not adding DLSS3 to older cards with the caveat of not having frame gen?

[–] ninjan@lemmy.mildgrim.com 10 points 11 months ago (1 children)

... That's even worse in my opinion. It's not like the cards can't do it. These FSR3 hacks prove that.

[–] Melonpoly@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago

True, it's just pure greediness from Nvidea

[–] Album@lemmy.ca 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

DLSS3 IS famegen

DLSS 2 is still used in dlss3 games

The 2/3 nomenclature is a misnomer tbh it's more like an extension of DLSS 2.

They are releasing DLSS 3.5 that's not frame gen

[–] Album@lemmy.ca 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

3.5 is another extension for Ray reconstruction...

[–] Melonpoly@lemmy.world 0 points 11 months ago

Look I don't know why you are creating an argument here. All I'm saying is that Nvidea made DLSS 3 available to all RTX cards by creating DLSS 3.5 while still making frame gen exclusive to the 40 series... Yes I said DLSS 3 by mistake in the first comment.

Any guides on how to do that?

[–] Rexios@lemm.ee 10 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Wow generating fake frames gives you more frames. Who would have guessed?

[–] wccrawford@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

I admit I'm a little boggled by that. People would rather have fake frames that aren't quite right? I guess that's the same idea as DLSS in general anyhow, faking the information well enough that it's okay.

Personally, I bought a 1440p monitor on purpose. The extra detail (in 4k) doesn't do enough for me, and I get a better framerate instead.

Does this apply to Linux/proton? I have dlss working on cyberpunk and only a 3060ti, am I just using dlss2?

[–] 9715698@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

My understanding is that if you're able to enable DLSS, you should be able to use this.

[–] kemsat@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago

Works for me. Gained like 10-15 fps.
