Reflex and DLSS
NVIDIA DLSS is an AI rendered technology for beautiful gaming images, its Ultra Performance mode with RTX 3090 makes 8K gaming smoother than ever. With DLSS 2.0 NVIDIA has massively progressed in its goal to achieve AI-based enhanced resolution with fewer pixels.
NVIDIA Reflex is designed to help competitive gamers with reduced system latency. It enables the display to respond faster to a gamer’s mouse and other inputs. These updates lead to precision in events like aiming at an enemy for a shot.
Throughout the year NVIDIA works with professionals to come up with revolutionary technology. NVIDIA DLSS along with NVIDIA Reflex is the tech update to be implemented with Epic Games, id Software, Riot Games, and Ubisoft.
NVIDIA announced partnerships with some big names of the gaming industry. Fortnite, Cyberpunk, COD, Watch Dogs, Valorant and Minecraft are all introducing the use of 2nd Gen Real-Time Ray Tracing, or NVIDIA DLSS, or NVIDIA Reflex, or a combination of two of these. In Fortnite’s case, they will be using all three technologies mentioned. These updates make the GeForce RTX 30 series the most compatible graphics card out there for gaming enthusiasts.
“The GeForce RTX 30 Series is a testament to NVIDIA’s dedication to ray tracing and artificial intelligence. Second generation ray tracing, innovative use of AI with DLSS, and a large raw performance boost make the GeForce RTX 30 series a truly impressive powerhouse for graphics technology in gaming.” said Marcus Wassmer, Engineering Director of Graphics at Epic Games.
The ‘GeForce Experience’
A very common practice for modern gamers is to record, upload, or live stream their gameplay. A good quality capture card is needed to record high-resolution videos. NVIDIA’s GeForce Experience companion app works smoothly with RTX 30 Series Graphics Cards to capture and stream with your friends. Moreover, it not only allows you to keep your game drivers updated but also supports one-click GPU tuning as well. It uses an advanced scanning algorithm to find the best overclock for your card and maintain your GPU profile.
