DLSS stands for Deep Learning Super Sampling, which is a family of real-time deep learning image enhancement and upscaling technologies developed by Nvidia that are exclusive to its RTX line of graphics cards and available in a number of video games. DLSS is a type of video rendering technique that looks to boost framerates by rendering frames at a lower resolution than displayed and using deep learning to upscale the image to the desired resolution. DLSS uses AI to generate more frames, and it analyzes sequential frames and motion data from the new Optical Flow Accelerator in GeForce RTX 40 Series GPUs to create additional high-quality frames. DLSS 2.0 is a temporal anti-aliasing upsampling (TAAU) implementation, using data from previous frames extensively through sub-pixel jittering to resolve fine detail and reduce aliasing. DLSS can provide a performance boost that increases framerates by up to 2X at 4K compared to NVIDIA’s previous generation of GeForce GPUs, allowing users to enjoy a super smooth gaming experience at 60 FPS or more.
