  • Raytracing and DLSS 3 Added to Portal Prelude

    This mod has been updated with RTX Remix.

    Nvidia announced and released Portal: Prelude RTX, a remaster of a 2008 mod. This update includes updated visuals, support for raytracing, DLSS 3 support, and is the first game to publicly use RTX I/O.

    Raytracing and DLSS 3 are both rather self-explanatory as several games have come out featuring these technologies already. RTX I/O stands for RTX Input/Output and is a new way for your GPU to reduce the load times for large amounts of data such as game assets and textures. It's essentially Nvidia's implementation of DirectStorage 1.2, similar to the tech that will be used in the PC release of Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart.

    Portal: Prelude RTX is still very much a free release, but you will need to own Portal in order to play this fancy new release. You will also obviously need a GPU capable of actually running these fancy technologies.

    Portal Prelude and the new Portal: Prelude RTX serves as a prequel to the events in the original Portal.

        Nvidia Showcases Several Upcoming Titles Such as 007 First Light and Control Resonant with Path Tracing and DLSS 4.5
        by Shawn Zipay
        So pretty.

        Nvidia dropped a news update today that shines a light on the truckload of upcoming games that will have ray tracing, path tracing, DLSS 4.5 Super Resolution, dynamic multi-frame generation, or support for some combination of all of those features.

        This news from Nvidia offers up some of the first looks of these new technologies running in these titles. For instance, we get a nice showing of path tracing for IO Interactive's 007 First Light and Remedy Entertainment's...

        RTX 5090, RTX 5080, and New Game Ready Driver Released by Nvidia

        The new Nvidia 50 Series has officially launched.

        The Nvidia RTX 50 Series is here with today's launch of the GeForce RTX 5090 and GeForce RTX 5080. Naturally, the cards all seem to be sold out already across online retailers and brick-and-mortar stores. This was probably expected because it basically happens every single time. You could always just hit up sites like eBay where you'll see either scalpers attempting to sell the card at a hefty premium, or you'll find people selling...

        Nvidia Announces DLSS 5, Will Yassify Every Character Model
        by Shawn Zipay
        Yass queen, slaaaay.

        Nvidia just announced DLSS 5 and are calling it their "most significant breakthrough in computer graphics since the debut of real-time ray tracing in 2018." While DLSS 5 seems to introduce better lighting in several scenes, it also seems to yassifies the hell out of character models. In almost all cases it looks like the "hire fans" shitposts made real.

        Backing up a moment to what Nvidia says DLSS 5 is all about. The company says,...

        Nvidia also addresses one of the main complaints users had during the beta.

        Nvidia just officially released DLSS 4.5 Super Resolution to all Nvidia app users. DLSS 4.5 introduces an updated "2nd generation" transformer model for use with DLSS Super Resolution.

        There was some initial confusion on how best to utilize the new Preset models within DLSS 4.5, but today's official release eliminates any confusion. If you set your "DLSS Override" option to...
