on CES 2025NVIDIA introduced DLSS 4, the latest version of its real-time image upscaling technology, and announced that it will come to all RTX GPUs. That includes the RTX 20 series that was discontinued in 2020, but older models don’t get all of its features.
In the new GeForce RTX 50 series models, DLSS 4 enables Multi Frame Generation. This feature generates up to three additional frames for every one traditionally rendered, and it helps increase frame rates up to eight times over traditional brute-force rendering. NVIDIA claims that 4K 240 FPS fully ray-traced gaming will be possible thanks to Multiple Frame Generation when using the GeForce RTX 5090 graphics card, the new $1,999 flagship GPU arriving later this month.
In addition, DLSS 4 represents what the company calls “the biggest upgrade in AI models” since the release of DLSS 2. as Google’s ChatGPT and Gemini. The company says that translates to improved temporal stability, less ghosting and higher detail in moving objects.
A total of 75 games and apps will support DLSS 4 from day zero. When the new RTX 50 cards come out, games like Alan Wake and Cyberpunk 2077 will be updated with the ability to take advantage of the technology’s Multi Frame Generation feature. Many titles will be updated with support for Multi Frame in the future, including Black Myth: Wukongwhile the future wants Destruction: The Dark Ages and Dune: Wake up will support the launch feature.
The GeForce RTX 40 series GPUs don’t get Multi Frame Generation, but they do get DLSS 4’s enhanced frame generation, enhanced ray reconstruction, super resolution and deep leaning anti-aliasing capabilities. Meanwhile, GeFore RTX 30 series and RTX 20 series GPUs took the final three.
