Nvidia recently announced DLSS 2.0 with their Geforce 445.75 game drivers, which is the latest update to their RTX DLSS released in 2018.

DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling) works by rendering the 3D scene at a lower resolution than what your graphics settings are set to, then upscaling it with AI deep-learning algorithms to enhance the details for a superior performance increase.

DLSS is only available with Geforce RTX graphics cards, due to their dedicated Tensor cores, which are specialized AI cores, that make use of new temporal feedback techniques to reconstruct details in the image, giving crisp details with massive performance gains over not using it.

If you do own an RTX card, you will be aware that it can support Raytracing (both shadows & reflections), but do note that, just because a game has DLSS, doesn’t mean that it has Raytracing, as they are exclusively different, while at the same time, fall under the RTX umbrella.
