DLSS 5 comes with a massive 50-60% performance hit, so I hope you like lower frame rates with your dose of AI image enhancement (www.pcgamer.com)

The very bad news is, Nvidia says turning DLSS 5 on will currently reduce performance by 50-60%. And that's across the board—no matter the game.

Dlss was originally an anti aliasing technique (its in the name) so it has originally been a performance hit. It was casual change and marketing that decided that upscaling from a lower resolution was the norm.

DLDSR is essentially what DLSS 1.0 was

If youre upscaling from a lower resolution, thats no longer the SS in DLSS (super sampling)
