It's difficult to know for sure. I'm getting the impression NV is dictating that non-DLSS performance is good enough at certain resolutions using higher end cards for whatever reason(s). Maybe this will change as the image quality improves.
Interesting to see that DLSS is something that will evolve so the current performance and/or image quality should improve:

"DLSS is a continuously improving feature as NVIDIA will continue to train the network and deploy new software updates."

Will try to get few hours play but initial impression albeit before installing the latest driver to go with the Dice BF5 update was that it needed some work. I noticed a lot of flickering in puddles during my 15mins of gameplay across a few maps. Will see how it plays with the latest driver later this evening.

Non-DLSS performance is nearly but not quite good enough at 1080p with RTX enabled on a 2080TI. It definitely isn't good enough @1440p. If you're not over 100fps you're not in the game IMO. The 2080Ti without RTX will get close to full time 144fps, but thanks to excess visual clutter I run lower settings in BfV (In fact since BF4 with any of my SLI setups for the same reason). Note I don't run SLI no texture lame mode though as I do consider that as cheating.

Yeah, shame DLSS cannot be used at lower res by the top end cards.

Before this update I was already getting over 70FPS from a 2080 at 1440P, max everything, medium RT. That was only 2 FPS lower than FarCry 5 DX11 at 1440P using a 1070 Ti, a card many think is sufficient.
I'm not a MP perfectionist though so just have a play for fun. Ultimate kills I'm sure 100+FPS constant would be desirable. The worst MP map for me I'm now getting 87average, and sometimes close to 100 with RT medium @ 1440P. Not tried the latest driver yet.

IMO NV are making decent progress. We're a long way from the 60 FPS at 1080P demo. DLSS hopefully will improve a bit too.

I am a little encouraged that DICE have made improvements to visibility, and that as much as I've been enjoying the Turner SMLE and MAS 44 the assault weapons have had a max damage nerf (45->40) per bullet. The first change might make deaths less random and the second is a straight buff to all the other classes so we might get a better balanced game with a better mix of class use. Medics were buffed last time, they might actually be playable now. However as always DICE. they give with one hand and take with the other so with the AA nerf we're going to get smashed by air cover more again and snipers might become more than just an irritation again.
 
Frame rates have dropped through the floor with this patch/nvidia update!

Was getting in the 90's, now dropping into the 50's... feels off
 
Just tried to play this again and it wont even load now, keeps crashing to desktop as the game is loading :(
 
Couldn't get it to load to change from dx12 lol but someone told me to optimize in GeForce experience which worked for me, im not too sure about dlss how it is at the moment, think I will stick playing in normal 4k in dx11, although I too feel like the fps has dropped since the update a little in dx11
 
All of our squad mates saw the screen spazzing out with wacky graphics on death respawn. IT was almost migraine inducing

For anyone with SLI, this is how to get it running on the current drivers. (416.94)

I do have my game set to DX11 mode within the 'Advanced' section of the in game Graphics menu.

Download this...

https://github.com/DeadManWalkingTO/NVidiaProfileInspectorDmW/releases

Extract it to say C:\Program Files\Nvidia Inspector\
Then launch NVidiaProfileInspectorDmW.exe

Now follow this little how-to that I made :)

Launch the game and test.

My FPS almost doubled, went from around 65 to 120

To confirm that it's working, you can launch GPU-Z twice, select the drop down on one of them to use your second card. Before making this change, my second card was idle when playing BFV.

6700K
16GB 3200 C14
1070 SLI
1440P

It's very possible and likely that Nvidia / DICE officially re-add SLI support, in the meantime, this is a good workaround.

So, now you have to do this, and this..

Very poor show by EA/Nvidia. It runs great on 1070SLI, but I have to hack it to enable SLI :(
 
Download patch. Gets stuck on loop, download again.
Nvidia launch new drivers to cope, stupid timing you'd think.
Nvidia GeForce (for driver installation and optimisation) borked by Windows update last week. Uninstall, try again, still borked, reinstall, needs Java for driver detection facility (?!), have to use Explorer (?!!), still broken.
Give up, download manually.
Game works, with worse FPS than before.
Modern life is rubbish.

FTFY :P
 
Performance seemed better yesterday in DX12. But I only played about 30mins so to early to tell if just temporary or not.

Why are they putting the new guns behind these achievement based things... I don't have the time to grind them in the time limit.

Does that mean when you miss the time limit that's it you can't access that gun any more? :mad:

Where are the new maps?

So far this 'free' DLC is worse than the paid for content. At least I paid for something and could access it.

At the moment it's free, but I haven't seen anything new as I can access it.

You’ll be able to buy the new guns with company coin, but I’m in the the same boat. There’s a lot I find annoying about the way they’ve worked the dlc for BF5 which is so annoying and obviously designed to funnel you into paying money, rather than making a great game you love playing and therefore don’t mind spending money on. I’m still playing it but it’s so obviously a cash grab it’s ruining it for me
