NVIDIA reported that DLSS 4 will be available for all RTX GPUs.

NVIDIA has unveiled the new version of its DLSS technology at CES 2025.

During CES 2025, NVIDIA unveiled DLSS 4, the latest version of its real-time image scaling technology, and revealed that it will be available for all RTX graphics cards. This includes the RTX 20 series, which was discontinued in 2020, although older models will not receive all the functionalities of this new version.

In the new GeForce RTX 50 series models, DLSS 4 will offer multiple frame generation. This feature will allow the creation of up to three additional frames for each traditionally rendered frame, potentially increasing frame rates by up to eight times compared to conventional rendering. According to NVIDIA, fully ray-traced 4K gaming at 240 FPS will be possible thanks to Multiple Frame Generation using the GeForce RTX 5090 graphics card, which will be launched at a price of $1,999 later this month.

Furthermore, DLSS 4 represents what the company calls the "biggest update to its AI models" since the release of DLSS 2. The features of DLSS Ray Reconstruction, DLSS Super Resolution, and DLAA will now utilize the same advanced architecture that powers AI models like ChatGPT and Google's Gemini. This translates to greater temporal stability, reduced ghosting, and increased detail for moving objects.

Initially, 75 games and applications will support DLSS 4. When the new RTX 50 cards are launched, titles such as Alan Wake and Cyberpunk 2077 will receive updates to take advantage of the Multiple Frame Generation functionality. In the future, more titles will gain support for this technology, including Black Myth: Wukong, with games like Doom: The Dark Ages and Dune: Awakening featuring this capability from their launch.

The GeForce RTX 40 series GPUs will not include Multiple Frame Generation, but will receive improvements in frame generation, advanced ray reconstruction, super resolution, and deep learning-based anti-aliasing capabilities. In contrast, the GeForce RTX 30 and RTX 20 series GPUs will gain the latest three features.
