Nvidia DLSS Override is a game-changer for GeForce RTX Gaming PCs
Nvidia’s DLSS Override feature will allow most games to benefit from DLSS 4
Alongside the release of their RTX 50 series of graphics cards, Nvidia is giving their DLSS technologies a massive overhaul with the launch of DLSS 4. As part of a future update, Nvidia also plans to add DLSS Override to their Nvidia App, allowing users to force the use of the newest DLSS models in existing games.
DLSS 4 will add support for DLSS Multi Frame Generation to RTX 50 series GPUs, and all existing versions of DLSS will receive a quality boost with DLSS 4’s new AI models. These new models will be available for RTX 20 series, RTX 30 series, and RTX 40 series GPU owners, giving all RTX users access to the latest DLSS AI models.
Nvidia has moved from Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) to a new transformer model with this interaction of DLSS. These new models enjoy double the parameters of Nvidia’s old DLSS models. This enables greater levels of image stability, reduced ghosting, smoother edges and more detail in motion. In layman’s terms, DLSS has just received an image quality boost.
An upcoming NVIDIA App update will support DLSS Overrides, allowing you to choose the new Transformer SR Model, set FG mode, and you can even set DLAA for games that do not have native support 👠pic.twitter.com/bjh0Q2YyMs

DLSS Override is a game-changer
With Nvidia’s DLSS Override feature, the Nvidia App can force games to use their newest DLSS models in games that don’t natively use them. Note that this feature cannot add DLSS support to games without it. This feature only overrides a game’s existing DLSS support with Nvidia’s new models. This enabled higher levels of image quality. Additionally, it can add support for DLAA to games that don’t natively support it.
Thanks to this feature, gamers can enjoy games with Nvidia’s enhanced AI models without needing an official game update. This means that gamers can benefit from Nvidia’s new Transformer-based versions of DLSS without waiting for game updates. That’s great news for gamers, as there are a lot of DLSS-enabled games that are no longer being updated.
