Which graphics cards benefit? DLSS 3.5 is not just limited to the latest RTX 4000 series. Cards from the RTX 2000 and 3000 series also benefit from the update. This applies to both desktop and mobile models in laptops.
Where can I get the update? Ideally, you open GeForce Experience and receive the update directly. Alternatively, you can start the search through the “Drivers” tab.
If GeForce Experience is not installed on your system, you can also download the driver version 537.42 directly from the official manufacturer’s site. Usually, you don’t need to restart after installation.
The new features will be available to you in Cyberpunk 2077 as soon as you have downloaded and installed Patch 2.0 for the game. Thus, you are also well prepared for the upcoming DLC Phantom Liberty.
