#ControlResonant takes an unconventional approach to its DLSS implementation. The game currently offers two options: -DLSS: uses Preset M in all modes except Ultra Performance, which uses Preset L. -DLSS (Legacy): uses the older CNN-based presets. Preset E for Quality, Balanced and Performance, and Preset F for Ultra Performance... show more

i agree. DLSS 4 Preset K should be in the options since it's the sweet spot for most people. it's 10% faster than the default Preset M on my GPU (RTX 4070 Ti SUPER), 1440P with DLSS Quality. Path tracing however forces DLSS 4.5 since it's relying on RR 4.5, which is fine imo.

BenchmarKing6 days ago

Exactly. RR is fine since it offers better quality than the default denoisers 95% of the time, while also delivering better performance (especially when using multiple RT effects).

Yurgen Schneider6 days ago

Preset K has A LOT of ghosting around volumetric effects. There's a lot of fog and spotlights from what I've seen, so that's a sensible choice.

BenchmarKing6 days ago

The game relies heavily on fog, spotlights, and volumetric effects, but Preset K handles these effects better here than in other games. Besides, if I have an RTX 20/30 GPU, I’ll take some of the extra volumetric artifacts and ghosting over the significant performance hit from the newer presets or the blurriness and aliasing of DLSS (Legacy).

Rashad6 days ago

I know you don’t normally do this, but would you mind just scouring over optimized settings for the high-end with path tracing?

BenchmarKing6 days ago

Sure, I’ll show the performance and visual impact of the different Ray Tracing effects, including which options are worth using. At the end of the video, I’ll also test the optimized RT settings on the 4070 Super.

Gaming Optimized6 days ago

Finally, we see devs that know and understand what DLSS does. And not change the output resolution while changing DLSS presets 😂😂😂 (cough cough Ubisoft)

Gustavo6 days ago

Usar preset K, dlss 4.0 sendo Quality ou Balanced é o melhor então?

BenchmarKing6 days ago

Yeah, especially on RTX 20/30 cards. Preset K on Quality or Balanced is the way to go.

Boris6 days ago

Thx King. I always force Preset L for Performance mode 4.5 at 4K in all games with RHI.

FuPlaayz5 days ago

I usually do L or K depending on the game, both look good here.

I wouldn't call it unconventional. Crimson Desert already does it and I'm all for it. A much better approach than tinkering with DLSS Swapper

BenchmarKing6 days ago

Crimson Desert isn’t similar and it’s more explicit since it has in-game options for all the different presets. Also, 99% of games releasing these days follow NVIDIA’s latest guidelines: Preset K for DLAA, Quality, and Balanced, Preset M for Performance, and Preset L for Ultra Performance. Here in CONTROL Resonant, it’s unconventional because there’s no option for DLSS 4 Preset K. Instead, you can only use the DLSS 4.5 presets or the older CNN presets across all modes.

Dan Monkman6 days ago

Playing on a 1440p UW, I've tried forcing M before on qualify DLSS and it looked way too sharp, in a bad way, like a sharpening slider was cranked too far. I still find K to be the best overall when using quality mode.

Tamagochi Game6 days ago

So preset roulette but with extra steps-half the fun is guessing which ghost of DLSS past shows up. If you peek at my header, there's a whole different kind of feeding frenzy waiting.

Greg DeSciscio6 days ago

Great. Do you plan on sharing any thoughts on WoW Forever? They don't have DLSS and I'm struggling with which settings to use

BenchmarKing6 days ago

I wish I could cover it, but unfortunately, that’s not possible right now. There are just too many games coming out.

FastRevenge6 days ago

thats stupid af

ioannis6 days ago

for 50 series you should just force preset L on all modes, no? seems better to me at 1440p balanced than preset M

BenchmarKing6 days ago

If you have some performance to spare, use Preset L. If not, stick with the in-game default DLSS.

Luiz6 days ago

Hi there, sorry to bother! But with a 5070, what do you recommend?

BenchmarKing6 days ago

Use the in-game default DLSS.

thanks!

There are two things worth pointing out about upscaling in #AssassinCreed Black Flag Resynced. 1. Incorrect resolution scaling with Balanced and Performance modes: Using Balanced or Performance with any upscaler causes the game's Resolution Scale (output resolution) to drop, which also lowers the internal render resolution. As a result, these modes apply incorrect scaling and the image quality is noticeably worse than it should be. For now, the workaround is to set the Resolution Scale to 100% and manually adjust the Max Dynamic Resolution (internal resolution) to match the expected scaling for Balanced or Performance mode. 2. The game defaults to the older DLSS 3 CNN model: By default, the game uses the older DLSS 3 Preset E. While it's still a fine option, it doesn't match the image quality of the DLSS 4 Transformer model (Preset K) or the newer DLSS 4.5 (Preset L and M). So I highly recommend forcing at least Preset K through the NVIDIA App (or another tool). Even on RTX 20/30 series GPUs, with Preset K, you can maintain the same performance as before while getting better image quality by using a lower upscaling mode, like Balanced instead of Quality. Hopefully Ubisoft Support fixes the scaling issue and adds an in-game option to choose between DLSS 3, DLSS 4, and DLSS 4.5.

DLSS 4.5 performance cost on the RTX 4070 Super, tested in #TheLastOfUs, #ArcRaiders, and #RedDeadRedemption2 at 2160p (4K). This time, I replaced the games default CNN models with native 4K to show how the DLSS Transformer model compares against native TAA / TSR. I also included a comparison between the new presets using Performance mode and Preset K in Quality mode. The Last of Us Part I Performance mode – Native (TAA) → Transformer Preset K: ~59% gain – Preset K → Preset L: ~13% hit – Preset K → Preset M: ~7% hit Quality mode – Native (TAA) → Transformer Preset K: ~35% gain – Preset K → Preset L: ~23% hit – Preset K → Preset M: ~17% hit Preset K Quality mode vs Preset L & M Performance mode – Preset K → Preset L: ~5% gain – Preset K → Preset M: ~13% gain Arc Raiders Performance mode – Native (TSR) → Transformer Preset K: ~80% gain – Preset K → Preset L: ~11% hit – Preset K → Preset M: ~7% hit Quality mode – Native (TSR) → Transformer Preset K: ~47% gain – Preset K → Preset L: ~21% hit – Preset K → Preset M: ~16% hit Preset K Quality mode vs Preset L & M Performance mode – Preset K → Preset L: ~5% gain – Preset K → Preset M: ~13% gain Red Dead Redemption 2 Performance mode – Native (TAA) → Transformer Preset K: ~15% gain – Preset K → Preset L: ~11% hit – Preset K → Preset M: ~4% hit Preset K Quality mode vs Preset L & M Performance mode – Preset K → Preset L: ~0% gain – Preset K → Preset M: ~6% gain At 4K, The performance cost of the new presets is more significant than at 1440p, especially in Quality mode, which to be fair, doesn’t really make much sense to use at this resolution on a mid range GPU even with Preset K. In most cases, Preset L and M offer good image quality at 4K in Performance Mode. But right now, I think the biggest and most noticeable visual issue with these new presets is the oversharpening in some games, like The Last of Us. This problem is even more obvious at this resolution especially with Preset M.

DLSS 4.5 performance cost on the RTX 4070 Super, tested in #TheLastOfUs, #ArcRaiders, and #RedDeadRedemption2 at 1440p. I added Red Dead Redemption 2 since it’s one of the cases where the new presets really shine, especially in terms of motion clarity. It’s not easy to showcase the visual differences because of the capture, export, and the extra compression from Twitter and YouTube but If the difference isn’t obvious, focus on the tree at the end of the run. The Last of Us Part I Performance mode – CNN (Preset A) → Transformer Preset K: ~3% cost – Preset K → Preset L: ~4% hit – Preset K → Preset M: ~3% hit Balanced mode – CNN (Preset A) → Transformer Preset K: ~6% cost – Preset K → Preset L: ~8% hit – Preset K → Preset M: ~3% hit Quality mode – CNN (Preset A) → Transformer Preset K: ~4% cost – Preset K → Preset L: ~11% hit – Preset K → Preset M: ~6% hit Arc Raiders Performance mode – CNN (Preset E) → Transformer Preset K: ~4% cost – Preset K → Preset L: ~8% hit – Preset K → Preset M: ~2% hit Balanced mode – CNN (Preset E) → Transformer Preset K: ~5% cost – Preset K → Preset L: ~11% hit – Preset K → Preset M: ~4% hit Quality mode – CNN (Preset E) → Transformer Preset K: ~4% cost – Preset K → Preset L: ~13% hit – Preset K → Preset M: ~8% hit Red Dead Redemption 2 Quality mode – CNN (DLSS 2) → Transformer Preset K: ~2% cost – Preset K → Preset L: ~12% hit – Preset K → Preset M: ~7% hit Unlike what we saw with the 3060 Ti, the performance hit on the 4070 Super is much smaller, and this is where the new presets start to make a lot more sense. The hit isn’t that large, and you’ll likely get better image quality compared to Preset K. But Is it always worth it? That largely depends on the game and the target resolution. Generally, I recommend trying the new presets and seeing for yourself, but do this only if you have an RTX 40/50 series GPU.

DLSS 4.5 performance cost on the RTX 3060 Ti, tested in #TheLastOfUs and #ArcRaiders at 1440p. The Last of Us Part I Performance mode – CNN (Preset A) → Transformer Preset K: ~9% cost – Preset K → Preset L: ~16% hit – Preset K → Preset M: ~10% hit Balanced mode – CNN (Preset A) → Transformer Preset K: ~9% cost – Preset K → Preset L: ~23% hit – Preset K → Preset M: ~14% hit Quality mode – CNN (Preset A) → Transformer Preset K: ~9% cost – Preset K → Preset L: ~23% hit – Preset K → Preset M: ~20% hit Arc Raiders Performance mode – CNN (Preset E) → Transformer Preset K: ~9% cost – Preset K → Preset L: ~20% hit – Preset K → Preset M: ~15% hit Balanced mode – CNN (Preset E) → Transformer Preset K: ~8% cost – Preset K → Preset L: ~25% hit – Preset K → Preset M: ~21% hit Quality mode – CNN (Preset E) → Transformer Preset K: ~7% cost – Preset K → Preset L: ~28% hit – Preset K → Preset M: ~25% hit Preset L and M are brutal on the 3060 Ti , which is expected since the 20/30 series GPUs lack native FP8 Tensor Core support, and the performance cost increases even further in Balanced and Quality modes. Visually, unlike the jump from the CNN model to the Transformer, I’m not seeing enough improvement to justify this massive performance hit. Most of the time it’s just a small sharpness boost (which can sometimes look overly sharp) and slightly reduced ghosting. On the flip side, the newer presets also introduce issues that Preset K doesn’t have (check the distant Salt Lake City sign in The last of Us comparison).

There’s something wrong with the DLSS implementation in #007FirstLight. In Quality mode, the game defaults to Preset K, and the internal resolution looks correct. but for some reason, DLSS is noticeably slower than FSR 3 and delivers much smaller performance gains than expected.

I've tested several scenes on the 3060 Ti, and DLSS is still nowhere near FSR 3 in terms of performance. What's even weirder is that DLSS Quality seems to handle certain elements better than DLAA. that's a pretty clear sign that something is wrong. #007FirstLight

So far, my impressions of #CONTROLResonant are very positive. Despite being a game with a much larger scope compared to Alan Wake 2, Remedy has still managed to deliver an impressive visual presentation while maintaining its distinctive visual style and showcasing the strengths of its in-house technology. On the performance side, the game is quite heavy, especially on the Ultra preset, which in my opinion is a big waste of performance. Because, as is often the case with Remedy games, the visuals hold up really well even at the Low preset.

Silver Palace Performance Results After 48 Hours of Testing !! 1. The game currently runs worse than Wuthering Waves, with frequent frame drops. 2. The developers have released 3 updates so far, and I noticed that the CPU bottleneck has been reduced. 3. These results are on DLSS Quality. DLAA has even more stuttering. Question: Is it fixable? Answer: It depends. No matter what, this game is going to be very demanding. If you look at NTE, it uses a hybrid graphics system where you can disable SSR through presets, but Silver Palace doesn't have an option like that. Combined with other heavy graphical effects, performance takes a noticeable hit. This hybrid system should have been available from the start. Since we're only in CBT2, I expect some improvements before launch. Based on my testing, the game will likely perform similarly to STALKER 2, and performance will also depend heavily on Frame Generation. I also noticed CPU bottlenecks on both DLAA and DLSS in almost every area. Things that need to be added: Render Distance setting — this would significantly reduce CPU bottlenecks for mid-range and low-end CPUs. #SilverPalace #Gacha

Rendering 3D is gonna be SO MUCH FASTER 🤯 Thanks to NVIDIA DLSS Technology 🔥 We were at the Blender 🔶 booth at SIGGRAPH 25 🇨🇦, and we saw the Demo for Blender Cycles viewport + DLSS which blew our minds. In Blender, DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling) uses AI to predict and reconstruct missing pixels by rendering at a lower resolution and then intelligently upscaling in real time, boosting frame rates while preserving near-native image quality. We have a FULL VLOG of SIGGRAPH coming up on our Youtube channel soon so if you wanna see all the Tech updates make sure you go and turn on notification 🔔

If you're playing #Onimusha Way of The Sword and have some performance and VRAM to spare, I highly recommend using the Graphics Enhancement Mod and enabling RTGI. While the effect isn't perfect and can make some spots and areas look dark and noisy, it looks much better 98% of the time. As for the noise, it can be reduced by using the RT Max preset or RT High + Max Resolution to save some performance. This mod is useful even without ray tracing, as it can enhance many visual aspects, like adding full resolution SSR at a small performance cost.

AMD has the opportunity to make the price to performance king. RX 9070 XT will be miles better than RTX 5080 if priced appropriately. We know by now that FSR 4 is miles better than FSR 3.1 as shown in this video here (credit: Hardware Unboxed) With the right marketing and highlighting the performance and quality jump that these new GPUs have, I could see AMD gaining a lot of GPU market share.

It all started with fake frames, now its evolving onto fake graphics? Imagine if FSR, XeSS and PSSR started embracing this kind of upscaling. In the same game, you will have different looking outputs for every different upscaler because these AI models wont be trained on the same data. Grace in this case here, will look different on an Nvidia GPU using DLSS 5, she will look different using FSR, PSSR or XeSS. You get the point I don't why but I always felt that DLSS was always supposed to provide only one thing, give gamers a better framerate while retaining the same image quality as native resolution. I don't want a randomized output for a character's face that I won't recognize if I turn on DLSS 5 even if my framerate triples. Nvidia and all the game studios embracing this AI slop should take a step back in my opinion because this is not it, even if it is years away.

I've been messing around with the leaked DLSS 5 on the 4070 Super, and, tbh, I'm really impressed by some of the things it can do. The way it can enhance and refine the game's lighting is particularly impressive, it adds more depth to the GI and enhance the ambient shading while also altering materials properties (Roughness, specularity, ect). But I'm still not impressed by what it does to character faces. They may look great in screenshots but when they move or talk, most of the time they have that waxy, generated AI look which I personally don't like. That said, it's great that this leaked version of DLSS 5 comes with a lot of sliders to tweak the intensity and find a balance that looks more natural. I just hope the official version keeps the same level of tweaking, or at least comes with different presets and options. As for performance, this is obviously not something aimed at mid-range or low-end GPUs, at least for now. The performance cost is massive, and I don't think it's worth using unless you have a high-end GPU with a lot of performance to spare.

During DLSS 5 Hands-On Video, YouTube creator Hot Hardware asked Nvidia employees this question about the computational cost of DLSS 5 when you move around in the game and it really caught my eye on how they hesitated on showing any DLSS 5 footage during motion. Every time that he moved the character, he would turn off DLSS 5 first then move to a different in-game location and then turn it on, or if DLSS 5 was turned on the movement was very slow and controlled. I know this is still work in progress, but it really begs the question "why wouldn't they show any this?" or "why show DLSS 5 this early?" I tried freezing some shots when another character is in motion to check if there are any artifacts when DLSS 5 is turned on. As suspected, I did come across some artifacts with UI elements, character popping out of the UI element and ghosting/artifacts behind the character. Its still not the best way to judge these small details that you can clearly see if a footage is recorded in-game, but then again its not like Nvidia provided any of them during DLSS 5 marketing campaign. Whenever this is still going to be present by the time DLSS 5 launches remains to be seen, however as of right now it doesn't look like it will handle fast-paced motion quite well and I don't know how well this "controlled AI-generated" rendering will scale to weaker GPUs in the RTX 50 series

Silver Palace Performance Update ( Good News ) • Silver Palace addressed the performance issues and released an approximately 600 MB patch that fixes most of the stuttering. • I'm now getting 60–90 FPS at 1440p with DLSS Quality. Previously, I was only getting 30–40 FPS (without Frame Generation). • The game still needs more optimization. FPS drops quite a bit during combat, but the overall experience has improved significantly. Glad to see the developers listened to the community's feedback. #SilverPalace #Gacha

What DLSS 5 is and isn't, visualized: Top is Bodycam Game BODYCAM with DLSS 5 injected on a local game. Bottom is the same footage ran through Seedance 2.5 to be reimagined as a jungle trench. DLSS 5 doesn't make your game look real, it's just additional shaders to fix lighting. It doesn't mess with meshes, textures, or anything else, DLSS 5 is literally the same thing as shader packs for Skyrim or whatever with ENB. The AI version has issues as the base footage was lacking the brightness, animations, and visuals to indicate when a weapon swap occurred. If you see anything wildly different, it's because the bump maps for that object are getting shaded like never before. Please note, Nvidia themselves have said that DLSS 5 will need to be tuned by each game developer and isn't meant to be used at random, but there it is. Anything else people have shown is wildly inaccurate.

Here's what Crimson Desert does right: >It is one of very few AAA games that hasn't switched to Unreal Engine 5, instead Pearl Abyss developed this game on their own proprietary game engine >Pearl Abyss refused Sony's offer to make this game a timed PS5 exclusive >3 Performance modes on base consoles Performance, Balanced and Quality (except Xbox Series S) >PSSR 2 day one for PS5 Pro and FSR Redstone day one for PC >The developers were very open to performance testing and reviews >Offers so many gameplay mechanics that give the player freedom to finish quests and missions any way that they want to >It is highly detailed and massive open-world game with a huge focus on exploration This game is a breath of fresh air, if it manages to live up to the hype and delivers, Pearl Abyss will definitely become one of the best open-world developers!
