VRAM optimizations apply strictly to Nvidia's transformer model, not frame generation.

    So still about 40% more VRAM expensive than DLSS3

    Would be useful for competitive, if they didn’t care for high FPS already. But else? I personaly prefer better image quality over bigger numbers.

      Less VRAM usage means you can use higher-quality models and textures.

        Are you saying usage of DLSS reduces memory usage as opposed to not running frame generation? Are you saying that running lower native resolution with framegen but higher textures is going to make the game sharper?

          dlss isn’t frame gen, it’s supersampling

        So more voxels, which needs a beefier GPU. I see, a double win for NVidia.

          What? No. If DLSS requires less memory, you can use more memory for other things. This means you can use a less beefy GPU, which is worse for Nvidia.
