MSI seahawkPC Gamers get the best performance from machines equipped with a GeForce RTX™ card featuring NVIDIA DLSS. This combination delivers upgraded graphics capabilities without a performance cost. NVIDIA DLSS is groundbreaking new AI rendering technology that leverages the power of the Tensor Core AI processors found only on NVIDIA GeForce RTX™ GPUs such as the Best Buy exclusive MSI GeForce RTX™ 3080 SEA HAWK X 10G LHR. Learn more about DLSS, then enter this contest and you might win the new MSI SEA HAWK for yourself.

What can DLSS do for your gaming

By teaming up with world renowned video game developers, NVIDIA developed DLSS which taps into the power of a deep learning neural network that boosts frame rates and generates beautiful, sharp images for your games. AI rendering on dedicated Tensor Cores gives you incredible performance, pushing up frame rates and giving you the headroom needed to maximize graphics settings and resolution, even up to 8K.

And the image quality enhancements are totally under your control. Choose the settings you want for the gaming experience you want. Focus the Tensor Core’s horsepower and AI on different areas of graphics performance, controlling the rendering resolution versus frame rate boosting. DLSS brings PC gaming to a level you can’t get in any other gaming format. And it’s available in a variety of games from the biggest blockbusters like Cyberpunk 2077 and Fortnite to indie favorites like Pumpkin Jack, with new games being released regularly.

PC games compatible with DLSS

For example, Nvidia teamed up with Activision, Raven Software, and Infinity Ward to bring four DLSS options to Call of Duty: Warzone so you can find the perfect balance between image quality and performance. DLSS maintains native image quality while including the significant performance boost—up to 70% at 4K—that DLSS users have come to expect. The extra performance enables higher graphical settings and higher resolutions. The RTX 3060 and higher deliver 100 FPS at 1440p, and enables over 100 FPS at 4K resolution on the RTX 3060 Ti and higher.

  2. I’d like to play Red Dead Redemption 2 with DLSS because I want to experience the mission “A Quiet Time” in the highest fidelity.

  3. Deliver us the Moon is not only an amazing game, but also one of the top Raytracing titles currently available….I have wanted this game sine it hit the stores as it is very popular!

  4. Bright Memory is a futuristic, first person shooter game using the Unreal Engine 4. This game is very impressive, especially its graphical details

  5. Bright Memory is a futuristic, first person shooter game using the Unreal Engine 4. This game is very impressive, especially its graphical details.

  6. Playing Death Stranding using its Ultra/Best graphical settings with DLSS Disabled, delivers a very respectable 48fps, while with DLSS 2.0 Enabled, shoots it up to 68fps, giving a total performance increase of 20fps (42%) and allowing you to easily play it at 4K60p. Those are great stats.

  7. Call of Duty: Black Ops – Cold War is the next Call of Duty game following the extremely popular COD Modern Warfare game. I have played them all so on to the next latest and greatest in the series.

  8. In System Shock, you’ll take on the role of a resourceful hacker as you explore and survive the terrors of Citadel Station brought on by a rogue AI named SHODAN.

  9. Enlisted – The game carefully recreates weapons, military vehicles and the atmosphere of that era, while demonstrating really massive clashes of hundreds.

  10. Nioh 2. It’s a great take on the “Dark Souls” genre with lots of content to play. Experiencing that game in its best graphics settings would be a treat.

  11. I’d love to try Far Cry 6 and Battlefield 2042 with DLSS!

    I would also love to try No man’s sky in VR with DLSS enabled!

    Good luck everyone!

  12. The game I’d play is definitely Bioshock: the thought of going through Rapture again, after 14 years and this time in 4K, and catch even more details of this amazing story makes me drool.

    • And since I know it does technically not support DLSS, Wolfenstein Youngblood is the title that comes to mind as “proper” candidate.
