DLSS brings up to 45% extra performance at 4K in Red Dead Redemption 2

Earlier this month, Rockstar Games announced that it would be bringing Nvidia's DLSS technology to Red Dead Redemption 2 and Red Dead Online on PC as part of an upcoming update. That update has now arrived, and it looks like RTX graphics card owners will be getting up to a 45 percent performance boost at 4K. 

Just in time for today's update, Nvidia revealed benchmark numbers for Red Dead Redemption 2 with DLSS switched on to performance mode, with all other graphics settings at maximum fidelity. At 4K resolution, an RTX 3070 or faster graphics card can deliver 60 frames per second gameplay.

In other tests, the RTX 3060 Ti was capable of over 60 frames per second gameplay at 1440p with DLSS on and pretty much any RTX GPU can deliver 60 frames per second or more at 1080p when using DLSS.

If you own Red Dead Redemption 2 on PC, the new DLSS update should be ready to download. Also be sure to install the latest GeForce Game Ready drivers for optimal performance.
