NVIDIA DLSS 4.5: AI Upscaling Beats Native Resolution

NVIDIA has once again electrified the gaming world with its announcements at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES). While a new graphics card isn’t on the immediate horizon, the company introduced NVIDIA DLSS 4.5. This latest version of its AI-powered image scaling technology brings revolutionary updates, promising a visual quality that, in some cases, is even better than native resolution.

A Revolution in Image Quality with NVIDIA DLSS 4.5

Delivered through new driver updates and the NVIDIA App, NVIDIA DLSS 4.5 stands out with its significantly enhanced Transformer model. This new AI model reconstructs images more intelligently, achieving an incredible level of clarity and detail. According to the company, this technology elevates the Super Resolution feature to a new level in all DLSS-supported games.

One of the most impressive demonstrations of this technology emerged from tests conducted on Red Dead Redemption 2. When running in “Quality” mode, DLSS 4.5 managed to deliver an image that was sharper and cleaner than the game’s native 4K resolution.

Furthermore, this new version also comes with the announcement of new “Multi-Frame Generation” features, which will be exclusive to the upcoming RTX 50 series.
