DLSS 5 on Radeon Gets Faster With AMDLSS5 2.0, Up to 64% Performance Uplift
Tuesday, November 10th 2026
AMDLSS5, a free mod that runs NVIDIA's DLSS 5 Neural Rendering on AMD's Radeon RX 9070 and RX 9070 XT, has reached version 2.0 with an engine its developer, Wehaveall, built for the project. Earlier builds were based on Daniel Blanco's DLSS-NR-on-AMD, the tool that first got DLSS 5 working on Radeon cards back in September, but version 2.0 no longer needs files from any other mod. In a 60-second Resident Evil Requiem run at 4K with FSR on an RX 9070 XT, the new build averaged 101.2 FPS with 78.5 FPS 1% lows, up from 91.3 and 66.0 FPS on version 1.6.1. That is roughly 11% and 19% better, respectively.
The headline 64% figure comes from a comparison with unnamed "other mods," which managed 61.6 FPS in the same scene. These are the developer's own numbers from one game on one GPU, and there's no mod-off baseline showing what Neural Rendering costs. Game support now includes PRAGMATA, Nioh 3 and GTA 5 Enhanced, the latter only in offline Story Mode with BattlEye disabled. RX 9060 series cards should work but are untested, while RX 7000 support is an alpha that hasn't been tried on real hardware yet.DLSS 5 launched as an RTX 50-series exclusive, though NVIDIA says RTX 40 support will follow once RTX 50 performance is tuned. AMD hasn't confirmed an answer of its own, and a DLSS 5-like feature for RDNA 5 remains a rumor for now. Meanwhile, DLSS-NR-on-AMD has grown to cover nearly every DLSS feature. Anyone trying AMDLSS5 should treat it as experimental and, of course, keep it away from games with anti-cheat.
