Nvidia's DLSS 4 is here, promising better AI-powered upscaling, ray reconstruction, and even more AI-generated frames. It still has some controversial edges, but that's been true for the technology since the first version came out in 2018.

Nvidia is launching its next-gen RTX 5090 and RTX 5080 GPUs today, but it’s also releasing an exciting update for existing RTX GPU owners. A new GPU driver (572.16) allows you to force DLSS 4 inside games or apps that don’t currently support it, providing improved image quality and even less VRAM usage in some cases.

PC Gamer notes that in addition to a host of new goodies for the RTX 5080, 5090, and 40-series, enhancements to the enhanced ray reconstruction, super resolution, and deep learning anti-aliasing should boost performance on the RTX 30-series and 20-series,
