Before and after upscaling. Arguably, that’s the most critical dividing line in gaming graphics hardware of the past 20 years. And it was, of course, Nvidia’s DLSS upscaling that created that inflection point on release in 2019. But now it turns out DLSS went from an idea to a new feature announced to the public…
