Turn off DSR, Important for PVP / Coop

[Sarutobi Fuji]

DSR Factoring/ Smoothness causes some skips
Disable it in your GPU settings to remove the recent skipping problem.
Did some matches pings from 25-250 it eliminated the really bad early hits.

Considering how DSR (Dynamic Super Resolution) works, of course it shouldn't be enabled, especially on weaker GPUs.

If you game at 1080p, enabling DSR forces the internal resolution up to 4K, processes the image with edge enhancement, then downscales it to 1080p. It's basically a better looking version of SSAA (Super Scaled Antialiasing) with about the same performance hit. Elden Ring seems to sync it's network ticks with framerate so using a postprocessing technique that causes worse frametimes will also cause worse ping.

It was just added last patch, people don't even know its on or that you can turn it off, Gotta lot more BM playing because everyone thinks your laggy at 50 MS

dsr is a global setting in nvidia control panel, it's been there for years, well before elden ring came out

how would elden ring patch add that? you're not making much sense

Dsr was made in 2014 , Ray tracing was added 2023, But this issue was added last patch by nvidia Update, then doubled down by Ray Tracing getting enabled again by FromSoft last update. both got forced on for me & 30 people in a stream. sorry for the confusion
