NVIDIA's Smooth Motion Expands to GeForce RTX GPUs in Upcoming Update
The AI-driven frame generation technology, previously exclusive to RTX 50 Series, will soon enhance gameplay for RTX 40 Series users.
- NVIDIA Smooth Motion, a driver-based AI model, generates additional frames between rendered ones to deliver smoother gameplay.
- Initially exclusive to RTX 50 Series GPUs, the feature will be extended to RTX 40 Series GPUs in a future update, though support for older GPUs remains unconfirmed.
- Smooth Motion works with DirectX 11 and DirectX 12 games, including those without DLSS support, doubling perceived frame rates in many cases.
- The feature rivals AMD's Fluid Motion Frames but lacks Vulkan support at launch, limiting its use in certain applications like emulators.
- NVIDIA's latest driver updates also bring DLSS 4 support to over 75 games, improved RTX Video Super Resolution efficiency, and new AI-powered enhancements for gaming and video content.
