DLSS and NVLink and VULKAN API

Post by zap737 »

Will LM implement DLSS for P3D for the RTX 2080 ?

If so, when will it be implemented?


Will LM implement NVLink properly for P3D for use with dual RTX 2080s ?

If so, when will it be implemented?


Will LM implement the VULKAN API for P3D ?

If so, when will it be implemented?


These three technologies, if properly implemented, would bring a massive improvement in performance.

DLSS barely exists at this point, with hardly anything supporting it. I think adoption should be slower than you're probably hoping for. I would wait and see what it actually offers, based on actual third-party benchmarks before I went screaming down the development path. Just my 2 cents.

NVLink has nothing to do with Prepar3D. It's just a different SLI connector with a higher bandwidth. Aside from that, there's nothing L-M needs to do as far as I can tell.

Regarding VULKAN... who knows. They generally never tell anyone what they're going to do in future releases.

You are unlikely to get a response from L-M that tells you one way or the other on any of these.
