DLSS 5 Just Got a Lot Faster, but Is It Worth Using?

Nvidia has released a new version of DLSS 5 neural rendering, claiming it runs twice as fast as the previous model. This October update reduces the number of parameters in the DLSS 5 model by 24%, halving execution time and reducing VRAM usage by 20%. All of this has been achieved while maintaining comparable image quality, according to Nvidia.

We thought it was worth revisiting DLSS 5 in everyone's favorite title, NBA 2K27, which is once again the first game to officially ship with the latest model. Does the new version really run twice as fast across all RTX 50 series GPUs without compromising image quality? Does it address some of the issues we raised in our initial DLSS 5 analysis? And does this performance improvement make DLSS 5 worth using now?

Is neural rendering the future?

Although we're only benchmarking with NBA 2K27 today, modders havekept pluggingin...
