Nvidia RTX 3090 and 3050 pair for 144 FPS 4K gaming with Lossless Scaling

By PulseAugur Editorial · [2 sources] ·

A gaming enthusiast has successfully paired an NVIDIA RTX 3090 with an RTX 3050, utilizing the Lossless Scaling software to achieve 144 FPS at 4K resolution. This setup offloads frame generation to the secondary RTX 3050, allowing the primary RTX 3090 to focus on rendering. Lossless Scaling, an affordable tool on Steam, offers broad compatibility with games and applications, even those without native support for AI upscaling and frame generation technologies like DLSS or FSR. This method provides a cost-effective way to boost performance on older hardware, particularly relevant given current graphics card shortages and high prices. AI

IMPACT Demonstrates a novel, low-cost method for enhancing gaming performance using AI frame generation on older hardware.
