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. Death Stranding. Because I’ve been waiting 2 years to play it on something better than my super outdated computer.

  2. The DLSS enhanced game I would love to play with the MSI GeForce RTX™ 3080 SEA HAWK X 10G LHR is Cyberpunk 2077 because it’s my favourite game to play and would love to play it with enhanced graphics and FPS.

  3. I would love to play Deliver Us the Moon with DLSS. Why? Because it’s already in my games library and I also already played Cyberpunk 2077, Watch Dogs: Legion, Death Stranding and Control. 😀

  4. Hello. I would like to play all the games but I don’t have time because I’d be using the power of the video card on art and video.
    If I had to pick one to fulfill the terms of this contest, then I pick Doom because I played the original Doom on PC back in the day. I hope this answer is found to be satisfactory.

  5. Gotta play a little bit of that warzone with that much improved fps! it would be awesome being able to play 1440p at more than 100 fps

  6. MSI GeForce RTX 3080 SEA HAWK X 10G LHR + raytracing + dlss + cyberpunk 2077 = the best possible experience.

  7. Death Stranding. Absolutely gorgeous game and I’d love to see what DLSS (and all the frames) would do for the experience.

  8. I would play battlefield 2042, I just preordered the game but am running into terrible FPS in the open beta so would really love a new GPU to give me a chance at launch next month!

  9. I don’t think that it would matter which game I picked, I’m pretty sure that 100 FPS wouldn’t improve my reaction time at all, haha. Unless…?

    However I would love to see how this card handles the work of a 3D artist. I’ve been working towards upgrading or even building a new PC that’s able to handle any 3D animating and VFX work that I’d be working on in my spare time. That’s my trade by day and while I have enough juice to work just fine, I can only imagine what kind of real time Unreal Engine scenes that could be running on this thing. Why play games, when you can make them?

    In any case, best of luck to the young gamer who wins this, and thanks for the info on MSI’s features. I’ll keep that in mind when picking out parts.

  10. I want to play Battlefield 2042; I’ve been a huge fan of the series ever since Battlefield 1942 and my existing card just can’t compete with what’s out there today and I’m stuck playing on low graphics

  11. I would try cyberpunk 2077. The reason being is, I feel at the launch the game did not get the love and attention it deserved. It had so much potential but people decided to focus on other thing rather than the game itself.

  12. I would want to play Doom Eternal and its looks like fun but needs a some power to run and look great!

  13. Would love to play Metro: Exodus complete with Ray-Tracing and DLSS! I posted to my Twitter @ianmbrand, Instagram brand.name.goods, and Facebook /ian.brand.12382

  14. The DLSS enhanced game that I would love to play with the MSI GeForce RTX™ 3080 SEA HAWK X 10G LHR would be the upcoming Call of Duty Vanguard. I missed on this feature on previous call of duty games due to my aging 1060ti, but would really love to experience higher frames and excellent graphics when the next call of duty is released in a month! Thanks again Best Buy <3

  15. I would love to finally be able to make the transition from laptop gaming to actual PC gaming and play games such as New World, CoD Warzone on anything more than “Low” Quality. I’d even take medium quality, but high quality just feels like a far-off dream. 🙂 I’ve been trying to hunt for a graphics card with all of best-buy’s promotions, but am always off by checking by one day. I hope one day, I could win this graphics card. 🙂

  16. Either battlefield 2042 or Warzone, my of can barely play warzone on low graphics so it would be sweet to win!
