Modders unlock Nvidia DLSS Multi-Frame Generation for RTX 40 series GPUs

By PulseAugur Editorial · [2 sources] ·

Game modders have successfully bypassed Nvidia's attempts to restrict its DLSS Multi-Frame Generation feature to newer RTX 50 series GPUs. Despite Nvidia's claims that the feature requires specialized hardware only present in the RTX 50 "Blackwell" cards, modders have developed software-based workarounds. These mods, which utilize Nvidia's own DLSS-G framework, have been adapted into a ReShade plugin and are reportedly delivering smooth frame pacing on RTX 40 series cards, contradicting Nvidia's earlier assertions about hardware dependencies.

IMPACT Modders bypass hardware restrictions, enabling advanced AI-driven frame generation on older GPUs, potentially influencing future hardware-exclusive feature rollouts.
