3DMark's DLSS feature test gets upgraded, now supports NVIDIA's new DLSS 4 upscaling
UL Solutions has just announced a big update to 3DMark, adding support for NVIDIA's new DLSS 4 and DLSS Multi Frame Generation to the NVIDIA DLSS feature test. The upgraded NVIDIA DLSS feature test was developed in partnership with NVIDIA, letting you compare performance and image quality when enabling DLSS processing. If you've got one of NVIDIA's new GeForce RTX 50 series GPUs, you'll be able to compare performance with and without the full capabilities of DLSS 4 upscaling. The company explains: "The NVIDIA DLSS feature test is based on the 3DMark Port Royal ray tracing benchmark. The test runs in two passes. The first pass renders Port Royal with DLSS disabled to measure baseline performance. The second pass renders Port Royal at a lower resolution then uses DLSS processing to create frames at the output resolution. The result screen reports the frame rate for each run. For more details about the NVIDIA DLSS feature test, see our 3DMark user guide". "You can choose to run the NVIDIA DLSS feature test using DLSS 4, DLSS 3 or DLSS 2. DLSS 4 includes the new DLSS Multi Frame Generation feature, and you can choose between several image quality modes-Quality, Balanced, Performance, Ultra Performance and DLAA". "These modes are designed for different resolutions, from Full HD up to 8K. DLSS Multi Frame Generation uses AI to boost frame rates with up to three additional frames generated per traditionally rendered frame. In the 3DMark NVIDIA DLSS feature test, you are able to choose between 2x, 3x and 4x Frame Generation settings if you have an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 50 series GPU".

UL Solutions Adds Support for DLSS 4 and DLSS Multi Frame Generation to the 3DMark NVIDIA DLSS Feature Test
We're excited to announce that in today's update to 3DMark, we're adding support for DLSS 4 and DLSS Multi Frame generation to the NVIDIA DLSS feature test. The NVIDIA DLSS feature test and this update were developed in partnership with NVIDIA. The 3DMark NVIDIA DLSS feature test lets you compare performance and image quality brought by enabling DLSS processing. If you have a new GeForce RTX 50 Series GPU, you'll also be able to compare performance with and without the full capabilities of DLSS 4. You can choose to run the NVIDIA DLSS feature test using DLSS 4, DLSS 3 or DLSS 2. DLSS 4 includes the new DLSS Multi Frame Generation feature, and you can choose between several image quality modes -- Quality, Balanced, Performance, Ultra Performance and DLAA. These modes are designed for different resolutions, from Full HD up to 8K. DLSS Multi Frame Generation uses AI to boost frame rates with up to three additional frames generated per traditionally rendered frame. In the 3DMark NVIDIA DLSS feature test, you are able to choose between 2x, 3x and 4x Frame Generation settings if you have an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 50 series GPU. The NVIDIA DLSS feature test is based on the 3DMark Port Royal ray tracing benchmark. The test runs in two passes.

The second pass renders Port Royal at a lower resolution then uses DLSS processing to create frames at the output resolution. The result screen reports the frame rate for each run. For more details about the NVIDIA DLSS feature test, see our 3DMark user guide. DLSS is a proprietary NVIDIA technology. You need an NVIDIA graphics card and drivers that support DLSS to run the test. DLSS 4 requires a GeForce RTX 50 Series or GeForce RTX 40 series GPU. DLSS Multi Frame Generation requires a GeForce RTX 50 Series GPU and Reflex SDK integration. You can read more about DLSS and the new DLSS Frame Generation on the NVIDIA website. This update is free for owners of 3DMark who purchased 3DMark on or after Jan. 8, 2019.

.New Features and Compatibility
The upgraded NVIDIA DLSS feature test now allows users to compare performance and image quality across different DLSS versions:
- DLSS 4: The latest iteration, including the new Multi Frame Generation feature
- DLSS 3: Previous generation
- DLSS 2: Earlier version
Users can select from various image quality modes, including Quality, Balanced, Performance, Ultra Performance, and DLAA. These modes are designed to cater to different resolutions, ranging from Full HD to 8K

.DLSS Multi Frame Generation
A key highlight of DLSS 4 is the Multi Frame Generation feature. This AI-powered technology can boost frame rates by generating up to three additional frames for each traditionally rendered frame. The 3DMark test allows users with NVIDIA GeForce RTX 50 series GPUs to choose between 2x, 3x, and 4x Frame Generation settings

.Test Methodology
The NVIDIA DLSS feature test is based on the 3DMark Port Royal ray tracing benchmark and runs in two passes:
- First pass: Renders Port Royal with DLSS disabled to measure baseline performance
- Second pass: Renders Port Royal at a lower resolution, then uses DLSS processing to create frames at the output resolution
The result screen reports the frame rate for each run, allowing for easy comparison
