Me: You can now run DLSS 5 on AMD GPUs. My RX 9070 XT: Please stop, it hurts us
A new homebrew application allows AMD GPU owners to run Nvidia's DLSS 5 Neural Rendering technology, but with significant performance drawbacks. While impressive that it functions at all, the feature causes an 85% performance drop on AMD's RX 9070 XT in Cyberpunk 2077, rendering it unplayable. This is attributed to AMD's RDNA 4 architecture lacking dedicated silicon for the required matrix calculations, suggesting a hard hardware limit for this generation.
