What this hub is

Which NVIDIA route to use on every GeForce RTX generation, plus honest AMD/GTX workaround notes.

DLSS 5 Swapper v2.2.9 is a free MIT Windows desktop app by Rakan Alkhaldi (community project). The public landing still shows Download, features and checksums only. This hub exists so search engines and AI crawlers can open a clean HTML/Markdown URL for the topic.

Native DLSS games upgrade in place. Non-DLSS DX9/11/12, Vulkan and OpenGL titles use the DLSS5-Feeder route. The F8 overlay tunes the neural pass live. Restore originals puts every file back.

How to use Swapper after you read this

Download the Windows installer or portable build, scan your library, pick a route per game, and keep or restore the backup if a title needs stock DLLs. Skip online and anti-cheat titles entirely.

FAQ

What is DLSS 5 Swapper?

A free MIT-licensed Windows app that installs, tunes and restores NVIDIA DLSS 5 Neural Rendering across native DLSS games, non-DLSS games via DLSS5-Feeder, and supported emulators.

Which GPUs work?

RTX 20, 30, 40 and 50 Series for the ReShade/Feeder routes. The bundled OptiScaler neural model is Blackwell-only; older cards need a supplied modded nvngx_dlssnr.dll.

Do games need native DLSS?

No. Native titles upgrade in place; games without DLSS use the DLSS5-Feeder 1.17.0 + ReShade 6.8.0 route on DX9/11/12, Vulkan and OpenGL.

How do I undo everything?

Select the game and click Restore originals. Uninstalling the app alone does not touch game folders.
