NVIDIA Promises DLSS 5 Support for RTX 40-Series GPUs in the Future

Nvidia says DLSS 5 will first launch on RTX 50 GPUs, with official support for RTX 40-series cards planned after performance tuning.

  • Nvidia spokesperson Rajal Maharaj confirmed to The Verge that DLSS 5 will officially expand to GeForce RTX 40 GPUs after initial RTX 50 exclusivity. For gamers, the technology functions as a simple on-or-off toggle.
  • Officially, the controversial DLSS 5 rendering was initially restricted to RTX 50 GPUs with developers in full control of their artistic vision. Nvidia is now changing these plans as some companies appear to have backed away.
  • Developers can utilize granular controls like Structure Intensity and Tone Intensity to isolate specific objects. The AI models automatically recognize items like silverware and foliage, distinguishing between faces and textiles to apply custom neural lighting adjustments.
  • While modders have already ported a leaked DLSS 5 version to run on various hardware, the status of the 12 originally-announced titles remains unclear. Nvidia provided only a vague reply: "More games are on the way."
  • Performance tuning for the RTX 50 Series is Nvidia's priority before expanding support to GeForce RTX 40 Series. "Once RTX 50 Series performance is more fully tuned, we plan to work on expanding official support to the GeForce RTX 40 Series," the company stated.
