Yes, DLSS 3 works on 20 and 30 series GPUs. But what does that even mean?

  • Does DLSS 3 work on RTX 20 and 30 series GPU? Yes, but actually no. How about DLSS 3.5? Yes, but also no. Unfortunately Nvidia's numbering scheme for DLSS is being confused with its feature set. DLSS contains three distinct technologies. Super Resolution, Frame Generation, and Ray Reconstruction, and it is easy to confuse each one with its version number. Hopefully this video can clarify things.

      I don't think so. People are just getting more and more retarded. We have multiple examples where many services are bundled as one under one name and people don't complain that naming is unclear. It is only youtubers fault to instill in viewers this false perception of what DLSS is. That it is one function and not a bundle of functions. Like none of NVidia materials suggest that DLSS3 runs only on 40 series. All their materials speak about FG that works only on 40 series.

      Of course, they want people to buy their new stuff, every company does. But you do not want to punish existing customers at the same time Daniel hit it on the head. The new hardware was meant to support this feature, but older hardware was not. To make it work on older cards might mean not taking advantage of hardware designed partially around frame generation.

    Nvidia should have named them separately.
    DLSS = Deep Learning Super Sampling
    DLAA = Deep Learning Anti-Aliasing
    DLFG = Deep Learning Frame Generation
    DLRR = Deep Learning Ray Reconstruction
    Edit: Just for the context, In my point of view, having more names( and acronyms) for specific functionalities is better than having people confused about DLSS, its assigned version number and its problem with features parity and compatibility between gpu generations, what is/are supported with what hardware generations and what not. Because right now, many people outside of tech scene, actually think that DLSS3 means Frame generation, which is not the case.

      They need to brand it in easy to remember names, and DLSS3 was the choice (it wasn't a bad choice if you aim for casual gamers), the problem is that important information falls through the cracks, and then everybody suffers from it.

  • @_The_Sage_

    Another way of looking at it, is the underlying model architectures. DL Super Resolution is the main upscaling & denoising model, while the Frame Generation is an attachment that interpolates additional frames and feeds it back into the denoiser. In 3.5 DL Ray Reconstruction, the denoisers are being updated to better infer ray traced outputs, hence this is a true update to the main upscaler-denoiser itself, hence it can run on all RTX GPUs.

    It is possible that the Frame Generation has issues on the previous versions, could be it's simply on the wrong side of the chip to route it efficiently, lag related issues... dunno.
    Regardless Nvidia should release the software lock they have on it and let us fiddle with it. *I don't care* if it looks worse, I just want to play with it. It doesn't harm Nvidia if it looks worse on unsupported hardware, it's not supported, just unlock it, same as when they unlocked DXR on Pascal and Turing lite.
    The reason they won't do that is entirely about selling the 4000 series. That's all. If performance was bad enough on the old hardware then allowing Frame Generation would only help sell the newer cards.

    Fun Fact - FSR3 should work on RX580 and 1060. The RX590 is listed but that probably means in 1080p, 900p, say 1080p with 83% res scale. You would need to turn off upscalling - just the FG. This info is on AMD FSR3 page. You know where this is going - 600p on handheld should be ok for FSR3 - wouldn't look that great but on the smaller screen it doesn't matter that much.
