Nvidia’s DLSS or Deep Learning Super Sampling is easily one of the best innovations for gaming on a PC. With DLSS 1.0 and the newer DLSS 2.0, Nvidia has provided a graphical punch that makes games look as good as they would in their native resolution and provides a better level of performance.
Recently, Nvidia double-downed with the technology and announced during GTC 2021 that DLSS would make its way into the Unity game engine. Expect this to happen before 2021 ends. DLSS is already supposed in several other popular game engines, including Decima engine, Unreal Engine 4, Cryengine, RedEngine 4, Ubisoft’s Disrupt game engine, Capcom’s MT Framework, Crystal Dynamics Foundation game engine, and EA’s Frostbite 3, to name a few.
While DLSS 1.0 first introduced the technology and showed the world what Nvidia was capable of. It wasn’t until DLSS 2.0 debuted and took things to a different level. DLSS 2.0 provides a higher level of graphical fidelity, with less overhead. Allowing developers to incorporate the tech and gamers to configure it to make their games look as good as the native resolution and perform better. As long as you have an RTX support GPU, DLSS is perhaps the best thing to happen to PC gaming.
