NVIDIA's DLSS 4.5 will deliver 6x frame generation and dynamic modes this spring, according to multiple reports from hardware publications. The company confirmed the features at CES 2026, targeting RTX 50 series GPU owners.
HardwareLuxx initially reported an April 2026 launch for both Dynamic Multi Frame Generation and the 6x Multi Frame Generation mode based on information from NVIDIA's Munich office.
However, NVIDIA later clarified that the April date was a misunderstanding, reaffirming a "Spring 2026" release window.
The 6x Multi Frame Generation mode provides a sixfold performance uplift, drawing up to five AI-generated frames following each traditionally rendered frame. This technology is designed for ultra-high refresh rate monitors above 360Hz, which are gaining popularity among competitive gamers.
Dynamic Multi Frame Generation automatically adjusts the multiplier between 2x and 6x based on scene demands and display capabilities. During demanding game scenarios, the system can apply 4x, 5x, or 6x multipliers, while simpler scenes like menus or static environments use only 2x multipliers.
Shifting between different MFG modes takes only moments and can occur multiple times per second, according to HardwareLuxx testing. The system determines the optimal multiplier based on the display's refresh rate capability and input framerate from the upscaler.
Both features require RTX 50 series "Blackwell" GPUs, which include hardware flip-metering unavailable on previous generations. The technology uses a second-generation transformer model that NVIDIA says provides superior image quality with fewer artifacts.
DLSS 4.5 also includes upgraded Super Resolution technology leveraging FP8 precision capabilities. This hardware doubles inference throughput while maintaining minor performance tradeoffs compared to the first-generation transformer.
Over 250 games and applications currently support NVIDIA DLSS 4 technology, with major 2026 titles including 007 First Light, Phantom Blade Zero, and Resident Evil Requiem planning to incorporate the latest features. All games supporting DLSS Frame Generation will work with Dynamic Frame Generation through overrides in the NVIDIA App.
The dynamic mode functions similarly to automatic transmission systems in vehicles, optimizing performance without user intervention. For monitors capped at 240Hz or 144Hz, using 6x MFG would be overkill, making the dynamic mode more practical for most gaming setups.
NVIDIA's DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation has become the company's fastest-adopted gaming technology ever. The spring 2026 release will bring these features to RTX 50 series owners through the NVIDIA App.
