DLSS has a frametime cost, but rendering at a lower resolution more than makes up for that cost
shadow wave

ah okay, understood. Frametime cost is what it is. Not framerate - compared to FG, it technically lowers the base framerate
velvet trench
Well all things being equal (DLAA), it will lower framerates. Even DLSS 4.5 quality will probably be slower than native TAA on RTX 2000 and 3000 cards
stable jetty
I think in some games thatās not always the case, call of duty is an example where for some reason DLSS gains are not what they should be
DLSS frametime cost isnāt strictly fixed, when it comes to how it all works out for certain games
With 4.5 I think nvidia is trying to skew the balance a bit more towards it being a technology that creates ābetter than nativeā results, and less likely towards performance savings
DLSS 5 will do that further still
Even preset K / 4 was a noticeable cost increase over DLSS 3
But yeah, frame rate is, by its name, a rate. Rates are fun because youāre measuring (thing) over time. But in this case (thing) is how long the GPU took to produce a frame, so youāre measuring time over time, confusing!

I think so yeah
now that I tested it in another cutscene, turning DLDSR resolution back to Native, and then back to DLDSR res seemed to fix it for that specific cutscene
so the cause might've been that maybe, just not sure why exactly DLDSR would do that
unborn rover

Developers forget that other handhelds exist that can run SteamOS just fine, so they only usually include Steam Deck lmao.
So either this is somehow strictly applied to Steam Deck hardware, or SteamOS itself.

ahh okay ty for letting me know
I'm curious tho, why use DLDSR? DLSS is plenty good
I use DLDSR mainly for old games that don't have DLSS to clean up the image but for DLSS games I see no reason to use it, DLAA in particular is already super clean
unkempt jacinth
higher base resolution + better AA and stability
knotty bobcat
I'm curious tho, why use DLDSR? DLSS is plenty good
well for me, the choice is between 1440p DLSS balanced, or 2.25x DLDSR with DLSS ultra performance, both give 100FPS, but to me eyes it seemed like the image looked much better in the distance
dldsr with Ultr. perf should have lower internal resolution than 1440p dlss balanced, so not sure if im just tripping or exactly how it works
and of course the ultr. perf. can cause more artifacting than dlss balanced at 1440p, but in this type of game where I'm looking more in the distance, I think it works better
crisp notch
ive seen quite a few games where the DLSS+DLDSR combo seems to produce better visual results overall but... im way too lazy to set that up š©
š¤£
small marsh
Every single instance of DLDSR use that I've seen in the past few years has boiled down to someone having a 1440p monitor.
Like, guys, at that point - just get a 4K display. Seriously. You are the target audience for that.
unkempt jacinth
you still want to use dldsr even at 4k if you can
small marsh
Something better than 4K DLAA? How does that work, anyway? A game with some resolution-based LOD biases?
unkempt jacinth
yeah something like that, if the game has something that scales with resolution, a higher base is better, also dldsr itself does scaling to the image so it will be more stable
velvet trench
I can't be bothered to use DLDSR anymore, I just use optiscaler. DLDSR does have some advantages though, like better textures if the game scales textures with output resolution, but it's more expensive and annoying to use
And I generally don't like how DLDSR looks

It really isn't complicated to set up, you just enable DSR factor 1.78x and (or only 2.25x) with like 60-100% Smoothness, then you check if borderless mode shows the DLDSR res, if not switch to exclusive fullscreen, you select it and you're done. It's like 2 steps
There might be games, older games usually, where you have to set your desktop resolution to the DLDSR res and then switch to that ingame

Because you can't just switch between 2K and a 4K monitor every time you switch games, and there are some games like recently RE9, Pragmata where with PT I wouldn't even be hitting 60 frames with 4K, so it would be either lowering DLSS mode which would look like 2K anyways atp, or play with sub 60 frames
small marsh
Well, you said it yourself - just lower the DLSS internal res if you need to. I just think DLDSR is such a cumbersome workaround, and what's worse is that it doesn't play nice with a DSC-enabled monitor at all
knotty bobcat
Yes and it might work for other games, but with PT games that uses a RR DLSS preset, having to use DLSS Perf or Ultr. Perf. would prolly not look good at all, until they update the RR DLSS preset
knotty bobcat

What do you mean by it not playing nice with DSC enabled monitor?
small marsh
Maybe it's easier to setup in the past few weeks, but I distinctly remember how nearly impossible it was to setup a custom, beyond-native resolution on my monitor strictly because DSC is enabled.
knotty bobcat
Oh yeah, DLDSR with DSC enabled only works with 50 series cards, but also some 40 (maybe 30?) series cards and monitor combos as well, and from searching online I still haven't found why and what combos work
Cause I have a 4080 which shouldn't work with DSC enabled, yet it does, no idea why
Tbf if it didn't, then I likely wouldn't be using DLDSR either cause it'd be a hassle turning it on and off constantly

I had it at 0 yet theres like a 0.10-0.15 base deadzone u cant get rid of, so annoying
i didnt even use sniper a lot cuz of that
unborn rover
Well on the more positive side, at least the game runs relatively well even if latency is an issue.
I think I get like 50-60 FPS in knots, and 40-50 in more open areas.
Doesn't feel too bad when you get used to it, doesn't exactly feel stuttery, but more or less smooth.
Maybe the reported FPS is just wrong and I'm actually getting more.
With optiscaler on DS1, I was definitely getting more FPS than what was shown in hud.
knotty bobcat
though if you use FG then u should cap the fps to 60 if u havent already
to avoid cutscene stutters
unborn rover
Ironically, I don't think I get the stuttery cutscenes?
None of the cutscenes were stuttering on my end at least.
Though, I did have my game capped at 72 FPS
After enabling VRR, I set it to 100 just to see what was up, but haven't really tested much before getting off.
Will prolly set it back to 72.
I also should probably turn off AO
knotty bobcat
yea as long as its capped it should be good

I do, gotta try it out, though I might be tripping or something.
The cutscenes when Sam goes to sleep and lights turn off, it never like goes fully black normally until just the black screen after.
The easiest way to tell will probably be the next war sequence if its dark because I'll prolly be stuck on it for some time.
So I can rewatch the cutscenes.
And they're usually really dark.
wet rivet
they lift blacks and make them blue in night time scenes in certain areas
the lut scaling option scales them back down but I made it very conservative so that it only darkens near black
unborn rover

You should absolutely use either L or M imo
There was a comparison posted here between the presets, and lots of detail disappears with K in the distance, especially at night

L isn't meant to be used at performance or balanced.
if someone has the performance headroom, theres nothing stopping someone from using L at performance or balanced

Perf L might be fine, the artifacts gets progressively worse the more you increase base resolution, so perf is better than balanced and balanced is better than quality etc etc
Personally I don't like the look of L and M, too aliased and crispy, on top of the added instability, K for balanced and above is the one I would go for, it's also a nice bonus that K is really really light on performance compared to L and M
knotty bobcat
yeah fair, its all preference at the end of the way, there was this comparison posted here showing a scene at night with all the lights at the distance, and the difference was pretty big which is why I went with L, but I can also see why K would be preferred
