Rockstar Games and Nvidia continue to enhance GTA 5, as they introduce DLSS 4 Multi Frame Generation support. I'm still on board with the game's ongoing updates.
In a move to enhance the gaming experience for Grand Theft Auto V (GTA V) players, Nvidia has introduced Multi Frame Generation (MFG) support in the GeForce Game Ready Driver 580.97. This update brings significant improvements to the popular action-adventure game.
Key Improvements
The key enhancements of MFG in GTA V Enhanced include:
- Smoother Gameplay: MFG creates additional in-between frames, making game motion look smoother and enhancing overall visual quality.
- Performance Boost: By combining MFG with DLSS 4, players can expect a performance boost of up to 3.1 times at resolutions like 2560x1440 and 1920x1080. This helps maintain high frame rates even with demanding graphical features like ray tracing.
- Ray Tracing Support: MFG complements the game’s existing ray tracing features, providing better lighting in-game.
Requirements
To enjoy these improvements, players need to meet certain requirements:
- Graphics Card: The feature is available for GeForce RTX 50-series and RTX 40-series GPU owners.
- Base Frame Rate: For optimal performance from MFG, a base frame rate of at least 40 fps is recommended, with a sweet spot at 60 fps to avoid choppy gameplay and input lag.
- Driver: The feature requires the GeForce Game Ready Driver 580.97 or later for support.
Additional Notes
Besides GTA V Enhanced, other games such as Senua's Saga: Hellblade II Enhanced also benefit from this technology. These updates are part of ongoing support for GTA V ahead of the eventual release of Grand Theft Auto 6 on consoles in May 2026.
It's worth noting that Multi Frame Generation is available only to GeForce RTX 5000 series GPU users. The launch of GTA 6 is still scheduled for May 26, 2026, exclusively for PC gamers.
Rockstar Games and Nvidia are providing significant support for GTA 5 PC players. However, there is no mention of a day-one release for GTA 6 on PC. The author has avoided Nvidia updates due to consistent black screen issues and bugs in the past.
Nvidia has implemented DLSS 4 Multi Frame Generation support for GTA 5 Enhanced, Senua's Saga: Hellblade II Enhanced, Titan Quest 2, and Supraworld. The company is reportedly planning to reduce the prices of RTX 5000 series GPUs, but scalpers may still disrupt the market.
As for the future, there is anticipation for similar support for Red Dead Redemption 2. The author hopes for the continued release of stable drivers from Nvidia. Modifications for GTA 5 PC will soon come to an end as players shift to consoles for GTA 6. The author is considering a permanent switch to SteamOS on their desktop PC, but is waiting for the resolution of two specific issues.
In conclusion, Multi Frame Generation is considered the icing on the cake for GTA 5 Enhanced, which isn't graphically demanding for most gaming PC setups. However, for those with compatible hardware, the update brings a noticeable improvement in frame rates and smoothness, particularly when using ray tracing for better lighting.
