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.

  1. i’d love to play honestly any of the games above just to see the potential of the GPU! Being able to play in the game highest resolution is an experience itself… that i have yet to be able to enjoy because im still using the igpu on my i9 intel lol!

  2. Would love to win this card so I could start recording higher quality gameplay on my computer to edit together videos! My current setup can’t handle it and would really value the chance to upgrade. Game wise I would play cyberpunk, destiny, and halo infinite when it drops !

  3. Battlefield 2042 for sure because… its a new BATTLEFIELD GAME!!!!
    Posted on Instagram @fg3.platinum 😀

  4. I would love to play cyberpunk 2077 on the rtx 3080 with ray tracing maxed out and DLSS to keep the framerate high

  5. I’d love to play the highest graphic quality of Genshin with this amazing MSI 3080 SEA HAWK graphic card!

  6. I would definitely play Cyberpunk 2077 because the graphics already look phenomenal and DLSS would enhance them even more!

  7. I would play Control. I got it from humble bundle ages ago and haven’t had a PC to play it on. It’s the reason I want to get back to PC gaming.

    • I would love to play battlefield 2042 with this bad boy. Playing this up to 4k with a gsync monitor would be amazing.

  8. I would play Red Dread Redemption 2 with this because there is no limit to how the game can become demanding if you customize the settings.

  9. I would love to play Warzone on this beast of a card. I’m a huge fan of fps games and Warzone tops the list for me personally, so who wouldn’t want to upgrade from a ps4! Another game would be Deathloop. Would love to see how great the game looks on a high performance PC

  10. This is such a tough call! How am I supposed to pick one game when they are all SO good!! Red Dead Redemption would be amazing to experience the higher FPS. The developers dedicated so much time to designing such a immersive environment it would be a shame to not play it with the DLSS!

    • Rootin” tootin” cowboy shooting. Red dead Redemption 2. Who doesn’t want to ride a horse in high definition? With the power of that 3080. I’d be down

  11. I would first play runescape because those graphics can never be beaten and then id probably play some battlefield 😀

  12. I would love to play Cyberpunk 2077 – it seems like an insanely cool environment, awesome graphics – and I can’t play it with what I have!

  13. Definitely Warzone or Cyberpunk due to both of the games demand in a good graphics card to run the game well.

  14. Definitely COD Warzone because your comparison is very impressive.
    Oh yes, the MSI GeForce RTXâ„¢ 3080 SEA HAWK X 10G LHR will be grrrrreat!

  15. I would love to play call of duty: warzone on the DLSS enabled msi 3080 Sea Hawk. High frame rate should improve my game drastically.

  16. I have always been a fan of FPS, since I got my first console to my first PC. Unfortunately, I have not experience DLSS. The first game I would play would be Call of Duty Warzone.

  17. CoD BO Cold War is probably the only game I currently play that support DLSS, so obviously that’s the one I’d choose.

  18. I have always been a FPS fan. Since I had my first console to my very first PC. Unfortunately, I have not had the opportunity to experience DLSS. The first game I would play if I win the MSI GeForce RTXâ„¢ 3080 SEA HAWK X 10G LHR would be Call of Duty: Warzone.

  19. Id love to be able to play Battlefield 2042 with the new 3080 and dlss on.

    I played the beta and my current setup is a bit too slow for it.
