Download: NVIDIA Geforce Game Ready 445.75 drivers (and an intro to DLSS v2.0 support)

NVIDIA just released Geforce Game Ready 445.75 WHQL drivers. The new driver brings support for Half-Life: Alyx, Resident Evil 3 Ghost Recon Breakpoint's Ghost, and NVIDIA DLSS 2.0 to Control and MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries. The driver also enables DLSS 2.0 in Control and Mechwarrior 5.

Nvidia's AI-supported image optimizer had a difficult start back in 2018, neither the optical results nor the performance were completely convincing for many. Meet DLSS 2.0, a more flexible, better and sometimes even more powerful development of DLSS. 

Nvidia officially announced DLSS 2.0, a new version of its Deep Learning Super Sampling technology totally built from scratch, which thanks to new algorithms, increases the efficiency of the use of Tensor Cores up to 2 times and allows integration much faster to the different games since it is not required to train the AI for each game individually. Also now all resolutions are compatible with all GPUs, something that was not possible before.

DLSS 2.0 does this while retaining - and in some cases improving- picture quality and sharpness. As mentioned earlier, DLSS 2.0 offers image quality comparable to original resolution while only rendering 1/4 or1/2 the pixels.  On March 26th  Control follows suit, adding NVIDIA DLSS 2.0 in a new update that launches alongside the game’s much-anticipated story DLC. This upgrade will further improve fidelity in Control, while still offering performance improvements of up to 70% when using DLSS’s highest-quality rendering mode.

Relativity: Ultra HD is also a low resolution

The second revision would offer better image quality with fewer artifacts. With DLSS v2.0 it is possible to choose a 1080p resolution and upscale to 4k. Nvidia mentions all resolutions are now available on all RTX GPUs, as the new DLSS version performs better.  In addition, DLSS offers 3 image quality modes (Quality, Balanced, Performance) that control the rendering resolution, with the performance mode allowing up to 4x resolution resolution (Eg: 1080p to 4K). NVIDIA DLSS 2.0 only works with Deliver Us The Moon and Wolfenstein: Youngblood; launches in MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries today; and comes to Control via a game patch on March 26th. DLSS 2.0 is also available to Unreal Engine 4 developers through the DLSS Developer Program that will accelerate deployment in one of the world’s most popular game engines.
