Nvidia DLSS 5 isn't officially a thing yet, but modders are already enabling an experimental version using a discovered runtime. Originally, the AI filter files were found within NBA 2K27 early access, but are now "working" in everything from GTA V to Control while making everything look expectedly unsettling.
Originally discovered by Renan Maniero, the Nvidia DLSS 5 file held by NBA 2K27 is a "nvngx_dlssnr.dll" library (via Videocardz). Windows identifies the file specifically as Nvidia DLSSNR version 310.8.0.0, and while it didn't originally offer up direct controls in the sports game, it didn't take long for modders from the RenoDX community to start injecting the graphics card tool into other games.
If you're morbidly curious about what this experimental DLSS 5 build will do to your PC games, SwurvGaming has shared plenty of cursed visual examples. It isn't a public RenoDX mod release yet, not to mention it has trouble running alongside Ray Reconstruction and HDR. But, it still seems to be committing the very visual AI slop crimes teased by Nvidia back in March.

In one example, the modder shares a screenshot of DLSS 5 running in GTA 5 with the caption, "LMAOOO I Yassified michael." Yes, the results are just as blood-curdlingly uncanny as you'd expect, but the results are just as graphically gruesome in Cyberpunk 2077 and Control.
It's worth noting that in this specific build, only character models seem to be subject to the horrors of DLSS 5 AI yassification. The mod adds access to a control panel with seven different overlay styles, with the first "cranked up to the max" transforming Control's Jesse Faden into what looks like a completely different character. I'd go as far as to say the effect is trying to make her look like my Scarlett Johansson sleep paralysis demon.
So DLSS 5 on control, for some reason i can't get RR to work, but NR works fine. It seems only 3 styles work right now. Heres a side by side of style 1 cranked up to the max vs vanilla. these are ultra settings rt on with 2 rays. pic.twitter.com/8hC4WBkImkAugust 28, 2026
Hats off to the RenoDX team for getting this working, as while it's still an unfinished mod, I'd say it provides a glimpse of the graphics card horrors to be unleashed by Nvidia. As the experimental build currently stands, it's seemingly pretty taxing on GPUs since the AI effects kick in after upscaling and other processes. That is to say that even if you have an Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Ti, it could struggle performance-wise.
