Nvidia DLSS cannot be loaded due to outdated driver

Nvidia DLSS cannot be loaded due to outdated driver - Man in Black Jacket Fixing the Rear View Mirror

I am aware of how to fix this, but a lot of times the outdated drivers complaints are meaningless. The game runs fine when i press ok. Am I missing out on anything by the DLSS not being loaded? Will my graphics look nicer or run better if i update my driver? (Please don't answer with: "It's generally better to keep your drivers up to date" I'm aware of this and updated not that long ago. My question is what will updating improve) Thanks!



Best Answer

My understanding is that DLSS is a deep learning neural network on RTX cards that increases framerates and improves the images in your game. Games have to be patched to utilise DLSS so not every game is compatible even if your RTX card is. Using a 750 you don't have to worry about a lack of DLSS, it will make no difference to your gaming purely based on the age of your graphics card. Updating will improve nothing at all for you as far as DLSS goes. This nag screen also pops up for people using RTX cards, myself included, because I let Nvidia G-Sync install the driver instead of updating through Windows myself. It's new tech still so has teething problems and I've been hovering on the Nvidia forums waiting to see how it goes..

How do I update my DLSS driver?

All you need to do is download the latest version of the DLSS client library from TechPowerUp, then replace the current DLSS . dll file with the new one. Both your old and newly downloaded DLSS . dll files will have the exact same name, so be sure you don't get confused.

How do I enable Nvidia DLSS?

Enable \u201cNVIDIA RTX\u201d in the Video options menu, select a \u201cRay Tracing\u201d detail level, and turn on \u201cDLSS\u201d (a game restart may be required). Note, that the DLSS box will automatically turn itself off if it is not available for your GPU, resolution, and ray tracing setting, as outlined above.

Does my Nvidia card support DLSS?

DLSS is supported on the 30-Series line of GPUs as the RTX 3060, 3060 Ti, 3070, 3080 and 3090 come with the second-generation of Nvidia Tensor cores, which offers greater per-core performance, making it easier to run DLSS.

Why is DLSS not showing up?

If you still can't find the DLSS option in Graphics Settings, then you might need to turn the API to DirectX 12. Head to the Graphics Settings and go to the Advanced Settings tab. Scroll down to find the Graphics API option. Change it to DX12 and re-run the game.
