The DLSS 5 feature uses an October 2026 Neural Rendering model that NVIDIA says is 2X faster than the previous version. It is available for GeForce RTX 50 Series GPUs, RTX Spark devices, and GeForce NOW Ultimate members. In Hogwarts Legacy, which also received DLSS 5 support, the game can run at up to 300 FPS at 4K on a GeForce RTX 5090 when using DLSS 5 alongside Ray Reconstruction, 6X Multi Frame Generation, NVIDIA Reflex, and ray tracing.

The driver also fixes a bug where the NVIDIA OptiX Denoiser in Chaos Vantage could fail at high resolutions. Additionally, it corrects a color issue in Windows Photos and Media Player when playing DJI D-Log H.265 video. Supported hardware ranges from the RTX 2080 Ti and RTX 2080 SUPER through the RTX 30 series, the RTX 40 series, and the full RTX 50 series.
