Hilbert, I'd very much like to see the following:
A comparison between DLSS on/DLSS off/75% resolution scaling at the same resolution/75% resolution scaling at the same resolution on a Radeon VII.
I think that would make for a very interesting comparison.
this would be interesting

More like DLSS turns him into a Hollywood celeb asking for a smooth over :p
DLSS turns him from intimidating and angry into elderly man with expression showing trouble to understand something in front of him.

LOL!
Indeed - DLSS can be very welcome in the Celebs Photoshoped albums, DLSS will make all their wrinkle/skin problems disappear and will make their skin smooth like baby's face
DLSS should be Instagram/Photoshop Plug-In for skin smoothing/Anti-Aging affect!
And I don't wan't to mention one of the big film making industry that will very much appreciate such a great skin fine details removal algorithms for their 4K/8K videos in future ;-).
P.S I don't remember where I read this but in some comments on DLSS in BFV, some claimed thad DLSS made some of the enemy too blurry to see(Far away?) so it just hurts the game and you should disable it, did you noticed it too?

Oh, great. A fake 4k, like console. Lower resolution to gain frames and do an upscale.

I played a few rounds with DLSS enabled at 4k on a 2080ti. Previously I had been playing at 1440p ultra and RTX enabled.
Some takeaways:
Pros:
Random frame drops which had happened once or twice a match on RTX-heavy maps (rotterdam) at 1440p are either no longer present or at least not noticeable.
DLSS is excellent as means of AA. Lines that give definition to 3D objects with curves are noticeably smoothed out.
Subtle blur makes some objects look more "real" IMO (mostly with objects further away, enemies in motion). It's hard to describe and difficult to show in a still image.
Cons:
Feels a bit heavy-handed. Like there needs to be a DLSS Low / DLSS high setting. FPS spikes over 60 in scenes where blur is noticeable and detracting from picture quality.
As mentioned in the review, only available for 4k with a 2080ti (why?).
Subtle blur makes some objects look muddy - items in the "foreground" or close to the player can be noticeably worse looking.
Anywhere the blurring results in textures with less detail - see previous bullets.
I honestly don't know which of these is preferable now, 1440p RTX or 4k RTX / DLSS. I personally like the RTX effect in BFV enough to leave it on and DLSS does make RTX a better experience from an FPS standpoint. That said, I hope it is improved/optimized further so that the worst texture blur is less noticeable and/or we get some additional options.
