Almost 8ms on 1080p resolution seems extremely expensive, does the original also eat into the rendering budget as much?

  Yes the original is very expensive. It depends on the resolution and the GPU used:
  RTX 5060: 9.9 ms at 1080p
  RTX 5070: 10.2 ms at 1440p
  RTX 5080: 13.7 ms at 2160p
  RTX 5090: 8.2 ms at 2160p

    RTX 5070, 9.6 ms with NR of Optiscaler in Stalker 2. It's payable and I enjoy new visual. Especially shadows and faces are incredibly detailed and precise. Landscapes not so much.

    I don't understand. If DLSS results in longer frame times than natively rendering at the same resolution, what's the point?
