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.

  7. I’d love to see what DLSS 2.0 would do for me in Call of Duty: Warzone. I play a lot of it but I’m on an MSI 1080 and would love for my GPU to not be my bottleneck. I’ve been waiting over a year.

  10. Have wanted to play Cyberpunk since release and it would be great to see DLSS and complete my first PC build with this card.

  11. Posted #MSIGeForceRTXContest on Facebook (@elevenfall), Twitter (@elevenfall) and Instagram (@elevenfall).
    Thanks for the chance!

  19. I would love to get a chance to see the effects DLSS can make on Farcry 6, and cyberpunk. Two games that are pretty demanding in terms of graphics. Hopefully it would improve my skill somewhat.

  20. I would love to play Far Cry 6 with the MSI GeForce RTX™ 3080 SEA HAWK X 10G LHR – I’ve always enjoyed playing the Far Cry games and my nephews are playing 6 now as well.

  24. I’d play Cyberpunk 2077 again but properly this time. I had it at release and played it at pretty marginal settings then around when everything started happening my old GPU died. I thought I’d wait till the next generation of GPU’s came out and I didn’t want to pay scalper prices well still waiting on one of those. On the plus side by the time I can play Cyberpunk again it’ll probably be all patched up and feeling like a new game.

  25. I would play Cyberpunk 2077 with this card and crank the settings and experience something I cant currently experience right now! I would also love this card to be able to upgrade to 1440p!

  26. I would love to play Cyberpunk 2077 with the MSI GeForce RTX™ 3080 SEA HAWK X 10G LHR because the game reminds me of some of my favorite science fiction like Bladerunner and Akira. Even though it had a rough release a common word about the game is that the story is wonderful and when it works it WORKS!

  27. It’d be great to be able to play games like CoD and Cyberpunk and also some older games with lower requirements.

  29. I would love to play Call Of Duty Cold War with the MSI GeForce RTX™ 3080 SEA HAWK X 10G LHR the zombies maps (which are my favourite part) would look so good and run so smooth.

  31. I would love to play call of duty with this upgrade! COD zombies has been a long time favorite of mine!

  34. I’d love to play Call of Duty: Warzone to see how much DLSS helps with resolution. My rural connection sucks

  37. I’d play Cyberpunk 2077 so I can see all the pretty ray tracing at a playable framerate with DLSS on the MSI GeForce RTX™ 3080 SEA HAWK X 10G LHR

  38. I’d love to play Call of Duty: Warzone to see how much DLSS helps with the resolution.. I might not suck as bad with better resolution with a slower internet speed.

  39. I would play Call of Duty War Zone with the MSI GeForce RTX™ 3080 SEA HAWK X 10G LHR as I can cross platform play with my cousin who is on PS4.

  41. CyberPunk 2077. I have GTX 1060 lol.
    So it would be nice to play the beauty of CyberPunk 2077 with Ray Tracing and DLSS on.

  42. Cyberpunk 2077 is a notorious hardware killer, so I would love to pit the MSI GeForce RTX™ 3080 SEA HAWK X 10G LHR against it and do some FPS tests.

  43. Good ole Battlefield 2042 would be absolutely amazing to play!! My 1050 on the other hand would disagree LOL! Unfortunately nowhere to upgrade GPUs on PEI

  47. Dying light 2 would be amazing on MSI GeForce RTX 3080 SEA HAWK X 10G LHR and on ultra settings. Who wouldn’t want to be scared out of their mind in 4k and with ray tracing?

  48. I would love to run games at 4k like Forza Horizon 5, my family and friends are really hyped for that title

  49. The new BF2024 games. It will be so cool to see the incredible graphics put into that game tested on this beast of a gpu!
