Nvidia released DLSS 4.5 early Wednesday, updating its transformer-model upscaler announced at CES 2026 to restore fine environmental details like sparks, sharpen textures and reduce ghosting. Testing on a Framework Laptop 16 with an RTX 5070 laptop GPU showed sharper foliage and up to roughly 50–60 fps gains in Black Myth: Wukong versus DLSS 4, with marginally lower latency. Nvidia plans a dynamic 6x frame-generation plugin for developers this spring.
Key Points
- 1Updates transformer upscaler in DLSS 4.5 to restore small environmental details and reduce ghosting
- 2Improves perceived fidelity and marginally lowers latency compared with DLSS 4 across tested titles
- 3Enables better visuals on mid-range GPUs like RTX 5070 laptop while maintaining or boosting frame rates
Scoring Rationale
Incremental yet measurable product improvement with solid hands-on testing; limited novelty beyond refinements and pending 6x rollout.
