All-in-one 'DLSS Unlocked' mod brings DLSS 5 and multi-frame gen to RTX 20, 30, and 40 series — hybrid tool taps AMD FSR 3.1 to boost frame rates up to 6X
Tom's Hardware reports on ShyVox's DLSS Unlocked, an all-in-one mod that pairs OptiScaler and DLSS Enabler to bring DLSS 5 and multi-frame generation to older RTX GPUs. It relies on FSR 3.1 for frame interpolation on RTX 20/30 and partly on RTX 40 cards, and requires a game with native DLSS support plus a patched DLSS 5 DLL.

Benchmarking Qwen 3.8 27B on RTX 5090 and beyond — VRAM capacity alone can't overcome severe software and inference engine bottlenecks
Detailed benchmarking of Alibaba's Qwen 3.8 27B open-weight AI model across multiple GPUs, including RTX 5090, RTX 4090, and RTX 3090. The review highlights severe bottlenecks in inference engines like llama.cpp and vLLM, showing that even with ample VRAM, prompt processing and token throughput can be poor.
