Nvidia Unveils RTX 50 Series GPUs with DLSS 4 and Multi-Frame Generation at CES 2025
Nvidia's CES 2025 keynote showcased the RTX 50 series GPUs, featuring groundbreaking DLSS 4 technology with Multi-Frame Generation. This new feature, initially exclusive to the RTX 50 series, promises significant FPS boosts in 75 supported games and applications. Titles like Cyberpunk 2077, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, and Marvel Rivals are among those benefiting from this performance enhancement.
The RTX 50 series, codenamed Blackwell, builds upon the Ada Lovelace architecture with improvements to DLSS, including the aforementioned Multi-Frame Generation, delivering faster FPS increases than its predecessor. The flagship RTX 5090, priced at $1,999, boasts 32GB of GDDR7 memory. Other models include the RTX 5080 ($999), RTX 5070 Ti ($749), and RTX 5070 ($549).
Nvidia demonstrated the impact of DLSS 4 and Multi-Frame Generation using Cyberpunk 2077. With ray tracing enabled and DLSS/Multi-Frame Generation disabled, the game struggled to maintain 30 FPS on the RTX 5090. Activating these features resulted in a dramatic increase to 236 FPS.
The initial launch lineup of 75 games and applications supporting DLSS 4 and Multi-Frame Generation includes:
A Quiet Place: The Road Ahead Akimbot Alan Wake 2 Aunt Fatima Backrooms: Escape Together Bears In Space Bellwright Crown Simulator D5 Render Deceit 2 Deep Rock Galactic Deliver Us Mars Desordre: A Puzzle Adventure Desynced: Autonomous Colony Simulator Diablo 4 Direct Contact Dragon Age: The Veilguard Dungeonborne Dynasty Warriors: Origins Enlisted Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn Fort Solis Frostpunk 2 Ghostrunner 2 God of War Ragnarok Gray Zone Warfare Ground Branch Hitman World of Assassination Hogwarts Legacy Icarus Immortals of Aveum Indiana Jones and the Great Circle Jusant JX Online 3 Kristala Layers of Fear Liminalcore Lords of the Fallen Marvel Rivals Microsoft Flight Simulator Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 Mortal Online 2 Naraka: Bladepoint Need for Speed Unbound Outpost: Infinity Siege Pax Dei Payday 3 Qanga Ready or Not Remnant 2 Satisfactory Scum Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2 Silent Hill 2 Sky: The Misty Isle Slender: The Arrival Squad Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl Star Wars Outlaws Star Wars Jedi: Survivor Starship Troopers: Extermination Still Wakes The Deep Supermoves Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown The Axis Unseen The Finals The First Descendent The Thaumaturge Torque Drive 2 Tribes 3: Rivals Witchfire World of Jade Dynasty
While DLSS 4 and Multi-Frame Generation will initially be exclusive to the RTX 50 series, Nvidia confirmed that enhanced DLSS features like Frame Generation, Ray Reconstruction, and DLAA will be coming to older RTX 40 series cards via future driver updates. Furthermore, future titles, such as Doom: The Dark Ages, will also leverage Multi-Frame Generation and Ray Reconstruction.
