The issue persists and has not been perfectly resolved. ---

If the issue of the screen freezing is not resolved, then Upscaling is nothing but a joke. ---

Wish I could use this feature with ray tracing but anytime DLSS is enabled I consistently get crashes after a few gate jumps. ---

Yep, this is still an issue, just resubbed today, and every few jumps, getting this crash with DLSS. Really disappointing it’s been an issue for so long and still hasn’t been fixed. ---

Is anyone from CCP even reading this? issue is still there despite the patch. ---

Not necessarily. If you want to report something to CCP you need to do a support ticket or a bug report, or both. Otherwise the forums are almost exclusively used by players. ---

I think the game has some serious asset streaming issues that DLSS only amplifies. Most often, client freezes occur when jumping between systems. The more accounts you run at once, the more likely it is to happen. I bet CCP will fix it once DX13 arrives. ---

Still not completely fixed. Multiboxing when alt tabbing it crashes with DLSS frequently. Just locks up. Turn DLSS off its fine. ---
