For some reason, Larian shipped an old version of DLSS with the game. It looks better if you swap out the DLL for a newer one. I use DLAA on my 3070 TI and it looks good, but I did have to swap the DLL.
You can either use DLSS Swapper or manually download a new DLL and drop it in yourself. It’s essentially just replacing the nvngx.dll in the game’s directory with a new one.
There are some issues, though - for example, upgrading from a version prior to 2.5.1 will disable the use of the sharpness slider. I mitigate this by using DLSSTweaks to force preset C, which favors the newest frame more heavily.
I think it might be dependent on the card you’re using, cause I use it all the time on my 3090 and I’ve never noticed much difference, just some very occasional artifacting at the periphery. Probably doesn’t hurt I have a 32" monitor either.
I upgraded the dll file and tried it again last night. It was much improved. BG3 is the only game I’m playing at the moment but I’m going to try it when Cyberpunk dlc comes out.
Maybe I did something wrong but I tried DLSS in BG3 with my 2080 and it looked really bad.

I’ll give that a shot tonight. Thanks for the info!
I’m down to try that on my 3070 laptop, are there good instructions for this process?
