Nvidia Unveils DLSS 4 with Multi-Frame Generation for Next-Gen GPUs

The new AI-powered feature promises smoother gameplay and enhanced performance, but its benefits and limitations vary across hardware generations.

Nvidia announced DLSS 4 as part of its new RTX 50-series GPUs, introducing Multi-Frame Generation to significantly boost frame rates.
Unlike DLSS 3, which interpolated intermediate frames, DLSS 4 predicts future frames using AI for smoother gameplay with reduced latency issues.
The new Multi-Frame Generation feature is exclusive to RTX 50-series GPUs and can generate up to four AI-driven frames, increasing performance by up to eight times compared to traditional rendering.
DLSS 4 updates its AI model for improved upscaling, ray tracing, and image quality, which will benefit all RTX GPUs starting from the RTX 20 series.
While DLSS 4's headline features require new hardware, older GPUs will still see improvements in image quality through updated AI models and easier version switching.
