QuoteThis achievement casts doubt on NVIDIA's repeated claim that the feature was exclusive to the RTX 5000 "Blackwell" series because of its hardware requirements.
This could still be true: NVIDIA would just argue in bad faith and define "hardware requirements" as being a 10-25% performance difference.
Just an example of NVIDIA's arguing in bad faith could be: Due to 40 base FPS vs 60 base FPS vs the RTX 50 series on certain selected modern AAA games, but in reality many other games would still have a base FPS of 60 on the RTX 30 series. In other words, NVIDIA would invent any fake argument not to give MFG on the RTX 30 series.
PS: There's also news that modders got DLSS 5 working on RTX 40 series without any restrictions.
