NVIDIA RTX 20-Series Turing GPUs Can Now Run DLSS Frame Generation Through Mods

Posted on
A modder has reportedly brought DLSS frame generation to Turing-based RTX 20-series GPUs, opening up a new path for older cards.

Quick Report

A new DLSS frame-generation mod is reportedly allowing NVIDIA's RTX 20-series Turing GPUs to run the feature even though official support was never widely extended to those cards. The development is drawing attention because it shows modders can bring newer GPU features to older hardware, even when the original vendor has not officially enabled them.

The workaround is being discussed as a proof-of-concept rather than a polished official NVIDIA feature, and it highlights a broader gap between what the company officially supports and what the modding community can achieve through software hacking. For owners of older RTX cards, the mod could offer a way to improve gaming smoothness, though image quality and stability may still lag behind Nvidia's own supported platforms.
