Forza Horizon 6 at Extreme graphics presets in native 4K resolution with ray tracing enabled. The flagship processor-based configuration was used as a testbed. AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D with a frequency of 5225 MHz, 32 GB of DDR5 RAM with a frequency of 6000 MHz, and a top-of-the-line NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 graphics accelerator. The experts focused primarily on a direct comparison of the video card telemetry before and after activating the cinematic neural network profile.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Image_e4xwihe4xwihe4xw_g_ggpu.webp\" alt=\"Image e4xwihe4xwihe4xw ggpu\" width=\"1200\"\/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" data-path-to-node=\"4\">The benchmark results demonstrated a catastrophic drop in performance for the flagship graphics chip when running heavy post-processing algorithms. Without DLSS 5, the graphics card delivered an average rendering speed of 114 FPS with a frame rate of only 8.6 ms, a core clock of 2820 MHz, and a power consumption of 487.1 W. Enabling DLSS 5 Cinematic mode resulted in an immediate drop in frame rate to 60 FPS, representing a net performance loss of 47%. At the same time, the frame generation time more than doubled to 17.4 ms, rare 1% Low events dropped from 97 FPS to 56 FPS, and 0.1% Low events dropped from 72 FPS to 56 FPS.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/image_90896y7sebtfwftb8wfrynw97fty89wy_g_ggpu.webp\" alt=\"image 90896y7sebtfwftb8wfrynw97fty89wy ggpu\" width=\"1200\"\/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" data-path-to-node=\"5\">The colossal computational load from the neural network matrices led to a sharp increase in the operating conditions of the graphics adapter hardware. The graphics card&#8217;s power consumption increased by 80.3 W and reached an extreme 567.4 W, which led to a rise in the die temperature from 61\u00b0C to 67\u00b0C and a forced reset of the processor clock rate from 2820 MHz to 2640 MHz. The video buffer remained loaded at 16 GB with a video memory frequency of 14001 MHz, and the GPU utilization increased to a maximum of 99%. Testing clearly demonstrated that, at this stage, the architecture of DLSS 5 algorithms is capable of neutralizing the potential of even the most powerful graphics accelerators on the market.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" class=\"gt-block\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=8Zf6N9bSReU\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n<p>            DISCUSSION CENTER<br \/>\n            @GameGPU_com<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 4px 0 0 0 !important; font-size: 13px !important; color: #9a9ab0 !important; line-height: 1.4 !important; padding: 0 !important;\">Join the discussion, share your benchmark results, and debate hardware performance in X.<\/p>\n<p>    <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/GameGPU_com\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"gpu-x-btn-link\"><br \/>\n        Discuss on X<br \/>\n    <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Evgen Kovalov GAMES 05 September 2026 Views: 4908 Experts conducted detailed hardware benchmarking of the NVIDIA DLSS 5&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":761443,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[59,86,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-761442","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-technology","tag-gb","tag-technology","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/761442","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=761442"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/761442\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/761443"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=761442"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=761442"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=761442"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
