But what is NVIDIA Image Scaling anyway, and how do you enable it?
NVIDIA Image Scaling Explained
Image scaling is NVIDIA’s upscaling technology that works in any game.
The technology is based on a simpleupscalingalgorithm aided by a sharpening filter.
It takes the output image rendered at a lower resolution and upscales it to the native resolution of yourmonitor.
We recommend sticking to the highest, 85% setting.
you could use NVIDIA Image Scaling in games only in Fullscreen mode.
The difference is that developers must specifically implement AMD FSR on a per-game basis.
This makes FSR better regarding overall image quality because the HUD and other UI elements look sharper.
As long as you’re okay with worse image quality than DLSS or FSR 2.0.
How to Enable NVIDIA Image Scaling
There are two ways to enable NVIDIA Image Scaling.
The first one is for users who don’t have GeForce Experience installed on their computers.
Once there, nudge the “Manage 3D prefs” tab, then the “Image Scaling” option.
Turn the option on and terminate the NVIDIA Control Panel.
The procedure is pretty straightforward.
The first step is opening GeForce Experience.
If the app’s running in the background, find its icon on the Taskbar notification area.
We have our icons hidden, so we clicked on the “Show Hidden Icons” button.
Next, double-tap the GeForce experience icon.
If you don’t have icons hidden on your Taskbar just double-tap the GeForce Experience icon.
In there, you’re free to also choose the preset for games GeForce Experience automatically optimizes.
