We tested NVIDIA DLSS 5 in D5 Render on one of our recent archviz scenes.
The first thing that stood out was how well it handled the overall exposure, shadows and color balance. For projects where the turnaround is brutal and there’s no time to endlessly polish every detail, this could actually be pretty useful.
It’s definitely not perfect though. We noticed some AI artifacts, especially on finer details, and higher-res renders can cause crashes.
Still, for a quick production pass, the result is surprisingly good.
