## DLSS 5 Exclusive Tech
Officially, DLSS 5 and its photorealistic effects are supposed to be exclusive to Nvidia's graphics cards.
## Daniel Blanco's Mod
Daniel Blanco created a mod that can run the leaked 158MB DLSS 5 file on AMD Radeon RX 9000, 7000, and 6000 GPUs.
## Performance Impact
DLSS 5 seriously drags down frame rates but Blanco has refined it to run at 90 to 100 frames per second on AMD RX 9070 XT.
## Output Quality
Output quality is very similar to what DLSS produces on original hardware, though some effects may not work 100%.
## User Testing
Users sharing screenshots on Discord show DLSS 5 runs well on AMD GPUs, though Georgetech found it better on Nvidia RTX 5060 Ti.
## Future Support
Nvidia plans to expand DLSS 5 support to RTX 4000 GPUs while AMD has no equivalent tech.
## Key takeaway

Daniel Blanco created a mod that runs Nvidia's DLSS 5 on AMD Radeon GPUs, improving frame rates to 90-100 FPS at 1080p.
