=== DLSS 4.0 ===

The fourth generation of [[Deep Learning Super Sampling]] (DLSS) was unveiled alongside the [[GeForce 50 series]]. DLSS 3 upscaling and frame generation was exclusive to GeForce 40 series GPUs. DLSS 4 upscaling uses a new vision [[Transformer (deep learning architecture)|transformer]]-based model for enhanced image quality with reduced ghosting and greater image stability in motion compared to the previous [[convolutional neural network]] (CNN) model.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Leadbetter |first1=Richard |date=January 7, 2025 |title=Hands-on with DLSS 4 on Nvidia's new GeForce RTX 5080 |url=https://www.eurogamer.net/digitalfoundry-2025-hands-on-with-dlss-4-on-nvidias-new-geforce-rtx-5080 |website=Eurogamer |language=en-GB |access-date=January 7, 2025}}</ref> DLSS 4 allows a greater number of frames to be generated and [[Frame interpolation|interpolated]] based on a single traditionally rendered frame. This form of frame generation called Multi-Frame Generation is exclusive to the GeForce 50 series while the [[GeForce 40 series]] is limited to one interpolated frame per traditionally rendered frame. According to Nvidia, this technique will increase performance by up to 800% while retaining low latency with [[Nvidia Reflex]].<ref name=":62">{{Cite web |title=NVIDIA Blackwell GeForce RTX 50 Series Opens New World of AI Computer Graphics |url=https://nvidianews.nvidia.com/news/nvidia-blackwell-geforce-rtx-50-series-opens-new-world-of-ai-computer-graphics |access-date=2025-01-07 |website=NVIDIA Newsroom |language=en-us}}</ref> Nvidia claims that DLSS 4's frame generation model uses 30% less video memory with the example of ''[[Warhammer 40,000: Darktide]]'' using 400MB less memory at 4K resolution with frame generation enabled.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Lin |first1=Henry |last2=Burnes |first2=Andrew |date=January 6, 2025 |title=Nvidia DLSS 4 Introduces Multi Frame Generation & Enhancements For All DLSS Technologies |url=https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/news/dlss4-multi-frame-generation-ai-innovations/ |website=Nvidia |language=en-US |access-date=January 7, 2025}}</ref> Nvidia claims that 75 games will integrate DLSS 4 Multi-Frame Generation at launch, including ''[[Alan Wake 2]]'', ''[[Cyberpunk 2077]]'', ''[[Indiana Jones and the Great Circle]]'', and ''[[Star Wars Outlaws]]''.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Mujtaba |first1=Hassan |date=January 6, 2025 |title=Nvidia DLSS 4 Delivers An Insane 8x Performance Boost Versus DLSS 3 With Multi Frame Generation Technology, Enhanced Upscaling For RTX 20 & Above |url=https://wccftech.com/nvidia-dlss-4-8x-faster-dlss-3-multi-frame-generation-enhanced-upscaling-rtx-20-above/ |website=Wccftech |language=en-US |access-date=January 7, 2025}}</ref>
