Native 4K (DLSS off): frame rate drops to 59 FPS, which indicates the high demands of the game.
4K with DLSS 4: with Multi technology enabled Frame Generation FPS increases to 242.
NATIVE
DLSS-4
It seems that NVIDIA is betting on DLSS 4 to compensate for the lack of performance of its top solutions in modern titles. The technology does increase FPS, but such numbers call into question the ability of the RTX 5090 to handle games without third-party enhancements.
