Red Dead Redemption 2’s title update 1.27 a.k.a Blood Money brings new missions, clothing items, and challenges to Red Dead Online but PC players are in for a treat as 1.27 has enabled DLSS support for the platform.
Deep Learning Super-Sampling or DLSS for short, offers better performance and sharper visual images in supported titles for RTX 2000 and 3000 series graphics cards. The technology uses NVIDIA’s A.I. algorithm to upscale games rendered at a lower resolution to the display’s native resolution.
How to enable DLSS in Red Dead Redemption 2 PC?
- DLSS Requires an RTX card in order to be enabled, make sure you own at least an RTX 2060.
- Open your settings from the main menu by pressing the Z key on your keyboard or LS on your controller.
- Head to the graphics section in the settings, and scroll down to the NVIDIA DLSS option.
- You have 4 options to choose from Quality, Balanced, Performance & Ultra Performance.
- For visual clarity, set it to Quality. If you prefer higher frame rates, set it to Performance or Ultra Performance. You can also change it to Balanced if you’re willing to settle for a modest performance boost with passable image quality.
