NVIDIA app is the essential companion for users with NVIDIA GPUs in their PCs and laptops. Whether you're a gaming enthusiast or a content creator, NVIDIA app simplifies the process of keeping your PC updated with the latest GeForce Game Ready and NVIDIA Studio Drivers, and enables quick discovery and installation of NVIDIA applications like GeForce NOW and NVIDIA Broadcast. In a new NVIDIA app update that's available now, we've expanded the functionality of our DLSS overrides, enabling you to fine tune image quality or boost performance for DLSS Super Resolution.
Additionally, we've brought Display Scaling and Display Color settings over from the NVIDIA Control Panel, modernizing and improving them, and taking another step towards unifying all NVIDIA GPU features in one responsive application. And via the Discover section, you can now download Project G-Assist, an experimental AI assistant that runs locally on GeForce RTX AI desktop PCs, helping users control a broad range of PC settings, from optimizing game and system settings, charting frame rates and other key performance statistics, to controlling select peripherals settings such as lighting - all via basic voice or text commands.
For further details about each of the new additions, read on; for a tour of previously released features, head here.
Download Project G-Assist Now
Project G-Assist uses a specially tuned Small Language Model (SLM) to efficiently interpret natural language instructions, and call a variety of NVIDIA and third-party PC APIs to execute actions on the PC.
G-Assist can provide real-time diagnostics and recommendations to alleviate system bottlenecks, improve power efficiency, optimize game settings, overclock your GPU, and much more.
It can chart and export various performance metrics, such as FPS, latency, GPU utilization, temperatures, among others.
It can answer questions about your PC hardware, or about NVIDIA software onboard your GeForce RTX GPU.
G-Assist can even control select peripherals and software applications with simple commands - enabling users to benchmark or adjust fan speeds, or change lighting on supported Logitech G, Corsair, MSI, and Nanoleaf devices.
Project G-Assist uses a third party SLM designed to run locally; it is not intended to be a broad conversational AI. To get the best results with Project G-Assist, refer to the list of supported functions, which will be updated as new commands and capabilities are added.
Download G-Assist from the Discover section of NVIDIA app's Home tab, if your system meets the requirements:
You can find a full list of G-Assist system requirements, including those for partner peripherals here.
After installation, press Alt+G to activate G-Assist. When G-Assist is prompted for help - say, to optimize graphics settings or check GPU temperatures - your GeForce RTX GPU briefly allocates a portion of its horsepower to AI inference. If you're simultaneously gaming or running another GPU-heavy application, a short dip in render rate or inference completion speed may occur during those few seconds. Once G-Assist finishes its task, the GPU returns to delivering full performance to the game or app.
For the complete rundown on G-Assist, including how to download and build custom plugins for the assistant, head on over to our dedicated launch article.
New NVIDIA DLSS Override Available Now
NVIDIA app users can upgrade games and apps with support for DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation, and improved DLSS AI models that accelerate performance and enhanced image quality. In the Graphics > Program Settings screen, under "Driver Settings" for each supported title, users can activate the following overrides:
Our new NVIDIA app update adds a new feature to the "DLSS Override - Super Resolution" setting for users who have GeForce Game Ready Driver or NVIDIA Studio Driver 572.83 WHQL, or newer installed.
Previously, it could activate DLAA or DLSS Super Resolution Ultra Performance mode in games and apps lacking native support. Now, you can enable any DLSS preset, or alternatively customize the resolution scaling between 33% and 100%.
For example, DLSS Super Resolution quality mode uses a 67% input resolution, and DLAA 100%. Users who want increased image quality and some level of performance acceleration, can select "Custom" in NVIDIA app, and pick a value between the two.
On the flip side, Performance mode has an input resolution of 50%, and Ultra Performance 33% - users wanting faster performance, but better image quality, could manually enter 40%. The choice is yours, allowing you to find your perfect balance between image quality and performance on a per game basis.
Since the launch of our NVIDIA app overrides, we've verified support for DLSS Multi Frame Generation in many more games, and are continuing to test and add additional titles each week.
Since the launch of DLSS 4 at the end of January, there's now support for over 100 DLSS Multi Frame Generation games and apps, making DLSS 4 the most rapidly adopted NVIDIA game technology of all time. Additionally, there are now over 160 games and apps in which you can update DLSS Super Resolution to our new transformer AI model, which further enhances image quality.
DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation: Over 100 Games & Apps Supported
Furthermore, we've added or updated DLSS overrides for 61 games and apps in recent weeks:
For a full list of games and apps with DLSS overrides, and a breakdown of which overrides are available in each title, head here.

Display Scaling & Display Color Settings
The NVIDIA app development team has modernized two additional features from the NVIDIA Control Panel in this new release, with more on the way in the future. Both are accessed from System, in the "Displays" section.
Display Scaling allows you to modify and override display scaling of games and apps, and use your GPU to perform hardware-accelerated integer scaling, instead of linear interpolation, which can be especially beneficial for improving image quality in pixel art games.
Display Color settings give you and your GPU full control over your display's color settings, overriding the defaults from the display. Adjust color depth, tweak contrast and gamma, and activate advanced calibration modes. For comprehensive tooltips detailing these options, click the information symbol next to the setting names.
More Features Are In Development
Your feedback matters, and we appreciate your continued support. In future updates, we'll continue to add remaining NVIDIA Control Panel options, along with new features and further enhancements. Please share your thoughts about NVIDIA app via the in-app feedback feature at the top right of the window and let us know which other features you'd like to see incorporated.
