Crimson Desert — DLSS 5 Neural Rendering OFF vs ON | 5120×1440 HDR

Crimson Desert with DLSS Neural Rendering OFF vs ON, recorded at 5120×1440 in 32:9 ultrawide HDR on my Ryzen 9 9950X3D + RTX 5090 PC. The first recording shows neural rendering disabled, followed by a second recording with it enabled through RenoDX. Compare lighting, stonework, foliage, and character detail throughout the town and surrounding countryside.
