As a technology DLSS5 feels a lot like Nvidia RTX remix where game can be modded to look very different from how it was originally intentended to look. If it can be achieved with local hardware it's fine, if it needs internet connection, subscription and huge data-center then not so much.

DLSS has always been local. I've never heard about anything cloud-related when it comes to DLSS. The DLSS5 demo was also local.

It can be done locally with like $7k in graphics cards, last I checked.

Not really. You're thinking of Nvidia test bench, and they always go overboard. 5070 was already confirmed to support DLSS5.

The last article I read on the technical requirements said you need at least 2. If that's still true, I guess you can get away with $5k.

DLSS 5 will be optimized to run on a single GPU for release.

DLSS5 would fail if they required two cards, and nVidia knows this.

That's excellent! I was wondering why they were making a graphics technology for like 9 whales.
