Nvidia has just released an update for its DLSS 3.1.0 SDK, the first since March 2022. This update introduces new features for gamers, including performance and stability improvements, bug fixes and optimization, as well as the ability to customize DLSS scaling ratios and set automatic updates without developer intervention.
Developers can enable this option for updates by enabling a feature called "NVSDK_NGX_UpdateFeature". This new feature would be very handy, although it won't be useful for games that support DLSS Swapper, especially games where this app doesn't work.
DLSS, which stands for Deep Learning Super Sampling, is a technology that uses machine learning to scale the rendering of games, which can dramatically improve performance with minimal impact on graphics quality. This technology allowed Cyberpunk 2077 to be played at almost 60 FPS at maximum performance on an 8K display, an RTX 4090, ray tracing enabled and the exclusive DLSS 3 Frame Insertion feature enabled.
All in all, Nvidia's DLSS 3 is a powerful tool that enables a massive performance boost on a gaming PC, and the fact that Nvidia is delivering quality updates and adding useful features to this technology is great news for the players.
