DLSS only works with the nvidia Studio driver.

DLSS doesn't work at all, literally 0 affect on FPS with the Game Ready driver installed. Works perfectly fine  with the Studio driver.

  • I and many others are reporting issues with DLSS not improving performance or in some cases, making performance worse. I have a 3060 TI and have tried all settings of DLSS, and my fps does not change. With all low settings, I get around 80-90fps regardless, and it remains the same regardless of the DLSS setting.

    @bob12550 Game isn't optimized. Has some optimization related internal limits, therefore DLSS can't really help you in most cases performance wise, as all it can do is alleviate a GPU related bottleneck, not a CPU or Engine one.

    TL;DR, it's not gonna help till DICE fix their terrible, laughable optimization job on this game.
  • I didn't test with Studio Driver, but indeed with 496.49 driver, with a 3090 & i9-10900K, DLSS isn't giving me any boost at any DLSS settings, while I can see the quality going down, so DLSS is working while not increasing the FPS.

    2560x1440p with G-Sync, full screen, Ultra settings, V-sync off in-game, and on in nVIDIA CP.

    With RT AO I'm at ~90 FPS, with or without DLSS. GPU usage at 74 %.

    Without RT AO I'm at ~130 FPS, with or without DLSS. GPU usage at 96%.

    If I put DLSS on ultra-performance, it even gives me less FPS, like -3 FPS.
