DLSS 2.0 in Death Stranding – Nvidia 4K Performance Trump Card

DLSS Performance at 1080p

At 1080p, all RTX series graphics card can deliver average framerates of 100FPS or more, making the performance boosts offered by DLSS and CAS unnecessary outside of high refresh rate PC gamers. 

With the RTX 2080 Ti, we were able to achieve Death Stranding’s highest performance levels with DLSS and CAS disabled, potentially due to CPU-related performance limitations. DLSS and CAS may utilise additional CPU cycles, removing the performance advantages of these features. 

At 1080p, DLSS can allow Nvidia’s RTX 2060 to run at 120 FPS framerates at all times, creating an ideal scenario for users fo high refresh rate G-Sync enabled monitors. The PS4 can run Death Stranding at 30Hz, but with an RTX 2060, 100 FPS framerates are easy to achieve.
