Deep Learning Super Sampling (DLSS) is an NVIDIA RTX technology that employs artificial intelligence to boost graphics performance. In the context of the space exploration and survival game, No Man’s Sky, it specifically refers to the utilization of this technology to increase frame rates and improve visual fidelity. Functionally, it renders the game at a lower resolution and then uses an AI model to upscale the image to a higher resolution, approximating the quality of native high-resolution rendering with less performance cost.
The integration of this technology within No Man’s Sky provides a significant advantage, especially for players using compatible NVIDIA graphics cards. The increased frame rates can lead to a smoother and more responsive gameplay experience, which is particularly beneficial during intensive graphical sequences such as planetary exploration or space combat. Historically, achieving high frame rates at high resolutions in graphically demanding games like this has been a challenge. This technology presents a viable solution, making higher graphical settings more accessible to a wider range of hardware configurations. The enhanced visual clarity further contributes to a more immersive and aesthetically pleasing experience within the game’s vast and diverse universe.
