NVIDIA DLSS 4.5 is now available to all NVIDIA RTX owners

What's the News?

NVIDIA has announced the release of DLSS 4.5, a significant software update now available to all owners of NVIDIA RTX GPUs. This latest iteration brings an improved version of DLSS Super Resolution for all compatible RTX cards and introduces enhanced Multi-Frame Generation specifically for the upcoming RTX 50 series GPUs.

Why This Matters for Your PC Build

For Indian gamers, this is a crucial development that primarily delivers value through software. If you already own an NVIDIA RTX GPU (from the 20, 30, or 40 series), DLSS 4.5 means a free performance and/or visual quality uplift in supported games. This is not a feature you need to buy new hardware for; it's a driver update that enhances your current investment, potentially extending its longevity and ensuring smoother gameplay or higher fidelity without additional cost.

For those currently planning a new PC build and considering an NVIDIA RTX 40 series GPU, DLSS 4.5 adds another layer of value. It means your brand-new card will immediately benefit from NVIDIA's latest upscaling technology, ensuring optimal performance in demanding titles right out of the box. This doesn't necessarily make building a PC cheaper, but it does make your GPU purchase more efficient, squeezing more frames or better visuals from the hardware you invest in.

Regarding the enhanced Multi-Frame Gen for the future RTX 50 series, this update signals NVIDIA's continued commitment to AI-powered performance enhancements. While the RTX 50 series GPUs are still on the horizon, this announcement assures future buyers of cutting-edge frame generation capabilities. However, it does not imply that current builders should wait to purchase an RTX 40 series card, as the immediate benefits of DLSS 4.5 apply to existing hardware.

Indian Pricing & Availability

DLSS 4.5 is a software update delivered through NVIDIA's drivers, meaning it is a free enhancement for all existing NVIDIA RTX GPU owners in India. There is no direct cost associated with DLSS 4.5 itself. Indian gamers simply need to update their NVIDIA GeForce Game Ready drivers to access these improvements.

For the enhanced Multi-Frame Gen features specific to the upcoming RTX 50 series, pricing and availability will naturally align with the eventual launch of those next-generation GPUs. Details for the RTX 50 series, including their features, pricing in INR, and availability in the Indian market, have not yet been announced.
