Frame Gen Question

[Gilgamang]

Does frame gen always double fps? For example, I’m playing Indiana Jones right now and using frame gen on a 4080. I get around 130 fps without it and my monitor is 165hz. Does frame gen add the amount of frames required to hit 165fps or does it drop the actual fps to 82.5 and then add 82.5 fake frames?

Frame gen typically turns off Vsync in games, so you will easily go above 165 fps. You gain about 90% extra frames, so from 130 you should be able to hit 200-220 fps.

I have vsync on in NVCP so it caps the fps to 165. How would it work in this situation?

Any thoughts on this?

No it does not always double your frame rate

It will ALWAYS do in ALL GAMES raise the input latency making it play like a game at lower framerate. 

So a game running at 60fps with NVidia reflex on
turn on frame gen, it will have the visuals of 100fps with new temporal artificing, and the input latency of it running at 45fps with reflex on, so it will play like a 45fps game.
