Lossless Scaling does 5 things DLSS and FSR simply can't match
Lossless Scaling is gaining attention in the PC gaming community as a tool that complements existing technologies like DLSS and FSR. While it does not outperform these technologies, it offers unique advantages for users with older hardware. The software is particularly useful for gamers whose systems do not support the latest upscaling and frame generation technologies.
- ▪Lossless Scaling is not a direct competitor to DLSS and FSR but serves as a useful tool for certain scenarios.
- ▪The LS1 upscaler does not outperform DLSS 4 or FSR 4 in terms of performance.
- ▪Lossless Scaling is beneficial for hardware that is not compatible with the latest upscaling technologies.
