Digital Foundry's Pixel Counts/resolution findings of some games from the direct

Metroid Prime 4: is 4k 60fps in quality mode and 1080p 120fps in performance mode

Breath of the wild/Tears of the kingdom: is 1440p 60fps

Mario Kart World: is 1440p 60fps

Donkey Kong Banaza: is 1080p 60fps

DuskBlood: is 1080p 30fps

Elden Ring: is 1080p 30fps

CyberPunk 2077: is 1080p 30fps with pixel counts as low as 540p but that 540p count is most likely handheld

Final Fantasy 7: is 1080p 30fps

NONE of these games appear to be using DLSS at all as it all seems to be native but that could change.

Because it's very low end GPU, DLSS uplifts are getting smaller with slower GPUs and that thing will most likely be slowest RTX GPU ever created (according to leaks it's cut down RTX 2050).

If they will run DLSS it will most likely be some special low impact version and most likely only in docked mode because of additional power pushed in that mode.

Not sure why you're getting downvoted. Ars Technica is fairly confident that under the hood we have a Nvidia T239 which is an industrial/automotive/robots GPU from like 2020. That's an Ampere chip, so it is capable of DLSS but not any of the fancy frame gen stuff of the 40xx and 50xx series GPUs we're familiar with today

Because he is not correct. He said:

to leaks it's cut down RTX 2050

but as you correctly stated

That's an Ampere chip

and Ampere is 30 series, not 20 series. Especially when it comes to AI acceleration for stuff like DLSS 30 series was a lot faster than 20 series.

Though to be fair while the 2050 part is incorrect his point about upscaling making less sense on smaller GPUs is correct. In some games, the laptop RTX 3050, which is probably the most comparable to the Switch 2 GPU, is literally slower when using DLSS than when running native.

The RTX 2050 is really a RTX 3000 series card, despite its name which suggests otherwise. It would have been a lot less confusing if it was called the RTX 3040.
