SLI Is Still Dead But This Mod Lets A Second GPU Run DLSS 5
NVIDIA's DLSS 5 neural rendering offers a stunning upgrade in visual realism but the performance hit is substantial, to the point that some, including this writer, feel it doesn't justify the cost. What if you could slash that performance hit down to almost nothing, though? Well, it turns out that's quite possible if you just run DLSS 5 on a second graphics card.
Hardware enthusiasts will likely recall that one of the early criticisms of the technology when it was first shownwas that it required a pair of extremely expensive GeForce RTX 5090 graphics cards. The company has done an incredible amount of optimization on the technology since then, and it can now run on a single GeForce RTX 5060 alongside the game itself. That's undeniably impressive, but the AI model doing the neural processing remains very heavy. It causes every RTX GPU to slam against its power limit,...
