User Demonstrates Offloading DLSS 5 Neural Rendering To The Second RTX 5060 Ti Using ReShade Add-On, Restoring Original Performance
A modder has shown that DLSS 5's neural rendering can be run on a second GPU via a ReShade add-on, recovering performance on the primary card. The technology had previously been unofficially enabled on older RTX and AMD Radeon GPUs. This dual-GPU setup suggests the potential for multi-GPU configurations to offload DLSS 5, making the 'more you buy, more you save' marketing relevant.
