NVIDIA has announced that the new GeForce Game Ready 545.84 WHQL driver is now available to download through GeForce Experience. This Game Ready Driver provides what NVIDIA says is the best gaming experience for the latest new games supporting DLSS 3 technology, including NARAKA: BLADEPOINT and Warhammer: Vermintide 2. The driver also introduces TensorRT acceleration for Stable Diffusion to increase performance by up to 2x, as well as support for RTX Video Super Resolution 1.5, an improved version of the AI-assisted video upscaling technology that delivers a sharper and crisper image. RTX VSR was originally exclusive to the GeForce RTX 40 and RTX 30 Series, but the feature can now be enabled on GeForce RTX 20 Series GPUs.

RTX Video Super Resolution (VSR), launched at CES earlier this year, uses AI to enhance streaming video by removing compression artifacts, and sharpening edges when upscaling.

Our new version 1.5 update, included in today’s Game Ready Driver, further improves the quality of RTX VSR, increasing the level of detail and preserving image details during the upscaling process for a sharper and crisper image overall. Plus, with expanded RTX VSR support, owners of GeForce RTX 20 Series GPUs can benefit from the same AI-enhanced video as those on GeForce RTX 30 and 40 Series GPUs.

RTX Video Super Resolution can now also enhance video when played back at native resolution. This means that you can enjoy the benefits of RTX VSR even on a 1080p display when watching 1080p streams. In these instances, RTX VSR will remove distracting compression artifacts and enhance the image.
