Ghost of Tsushima: Director's Cut is out now for PC. It's one of the latest releases to support DLSS 2 Super Resolution for all GeForce RTX GPUs and DLSS 3 Frame Generation for the latest GeForce RTX 40 Series. With that, NVIDIA has presented benchmark results for what to expect at 1080p, 1440p, and 4K with max settings and DLSS 3 enabled.

The video above shows that the flagship GeForce RTX 4090 delivers a smooth 200 FPS experience at 4K. Digging into the full benchmark results (which you can see after the jump), the mid-range GeForce RTX 4070 can also hit an average of 108.7 FPS at 4K with DLSS 3. From the RTX 4070 to the RTX 4090, DLSS 3 delivers a 2.6X increase in performance at 4K.

Interestingly, since the game supports DLSS 3, FSR 3, and XeSS, GeForce RTX 30 Series owners can enable FSR 3 frame generation with DLSS 2 upscaling to boost performance. X user @BlooHook (via Videocardz) posted a screenshot showcasing the GeForce RTX 3090 hitting an impressive 170 FPS using a combination of DLSS and FSR.

Switching back to NVIDIA's benchmarks, 1440p DLSS 3 performance sees the GeForce RTX 4070's performance increase to an impressive 184.6 FPS - highlighting this as the resolution sweet spot for most PC gamers. The GeForce RTX 4060 manages 92.9 FPS here, which is impressive because the GPU is primarily a 1080p card for modern titles like this.

Finally, the 1080p benchmark results make it pretty clear that it's triple-digit performance for all GeForce RTX 40 Series graphics cards - with the GeForce RTX 4090 falling just short of 300 FPS.
