Starfield's DLSS patch shows that even in an AMD-sponsored game Nvidia is still king of upscaling

Starfield screenshots with different upscaling modes enabled.

The lack of support for Nvidia's DLSS in Starfield when the game first launched was a bit of a touchy subject. However, it didn’t take long for modders to add it into the game and Bethesda to hint at official support not long after. Well, that time has come, and a beta branch of Starfield brings support for DLSS 3.5, Frame Generation, DLAA, and Reflex—and it's definitely the best way to play.

It's an odd scenario, actually, as AMD partnered with Bethesda for the launch of Starfield yet Nvidia's Frame Generation is the best way to extract top performance. AMD does have a rival frame gen tech in FSR 3, though that's only available in Forspoken and Immortals of Aveum today. You'd think it would show up in Starfield, too.
