   DLSS 5 foveated-rendering mods claim near-double performance, unverified

   Tom's Hardware reports that two community projects now apply foveated rendering to DLSS 5 Neural Rendering: maximedgoulet's Foveated DLSS5, a ReShade add-on, and ClarkCheekyKent's CheekyFoveatedDLSS, a standalone integration. Rather than changing image resolution, the mods vary the level of detail in DLSS 5 Neural Rendering, keeping the centre of the frame at full quality while reducing detail toward the edges; users can set the centre region's width and height independently and adjust the fall-off rate. The reported speed-up rests on a self-reported Reddit measurement of 48 to 80 FPS in The Witcher 3 at 7680x2160 on an RTX 4090, which Tom's Hardware cites without independent verification.

   New DLSS 5 neural rendering model modded into unsupported games, up to 40% faster

   A new DLSS 5 Neural Rendering build (310.9.16.0) shipped in an NBA 2K27 update and was quickly extracted by modders, who ran it in games and on GPUs without official support using tools such as OptiScaler and RenoDX. Community testers reported frame-rate gains of up to 40% versus the previous model, with one tester citing up to 90% in The Witcher 3; these results are preliminary and vary by game. Nvidia says the new model is 24% smaller, uses 20% less VRAM at 4K and processes neural rendering up to twice as fast, and the DLL includes Preset A (old model) and Preset B (new model).
