NX2navi performance, upscalers, and HDR
nx2 navi fps questions mix a project feature list with one-off videos. I keep those in different tables. A DLSS 5 clip is a creator-described modification, not a release note.
Features named by the project. Status: 1 project source, documented in the README and 0.6.0 notes.
| Feature | What the notes say |
|---|---|
| Frame cap | Default 60. Range 30–240, display, or unlimited. Above 60 is experimental. |
| Upscale | DLSS modes on RTX, including DLAA. FSR 3.1 on any GPU. FSR 1 or bilinear plus sharpen. |
| Frame generation | DLSS on RTX 40/50 with Reflex pacing, 2x, and 3x/4x on RTX 50. FSR 3.1 on any GPU. |
| HDR | Native HDR, or an SDR tone map to the display peak, with exposure and gamma sliders. |
| Resolution | 1080p through 5K, plus window native. game_res includes 1440, 1800, 2160, 2880. |
| Shaders | Prepared at build time. 0.6.0 cites 42,177 shader programs and a 512 MB pipeline cache cap. |
Ultrawide, two written answers
The readme says HUD, menus, and movies stay 16:9. The example ini says the HUD lays out for the picture shape, and the installer prepares 15 UI layouts. Both sentences were public on 10 Nov 2026. I am not picking one. game_aspect still lists 21:9 and 32:9 as choices.
Community clips, not a shared test
| Hardware | Build | What was reported | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| RTX 4070 SUPER | 0.4/0.5 era | 2K handheld, about 30–40 fps | 1 source · WhiteSun |
| RX 9070 XT + 9800X3D | 0.6.1 | 1440p called playable, no average given | 1 source · V7 Gaming |
| RX 580 | Version not stated | Title and description identify NX2navi on RX 580; compatibility is not established | 1 source · MODO XMP |
| RTX 5090, early | 0.4 era | A report of 18.6 GB VRAM | 1 source · TechPowerUp |
The RX 580 video claim conflicts with the current mesh-shader requirement; it must not be read as supported-hardware evidence. Those rows use different versions and scenes. Averaging them would invent a number. Issue 331's Kokiri note and issue 259's out-of-memory crash stay on the troubleshoot page rather than in a leaderboard.

Questions
Does NX2navi have DLSS frame generation?
Yes from the 0.6.0 notes: DLSS frame generation on RTX 40 and 50, and FSR 3.1 frame generation on other GPUs. Older pages that say NVIDIA frame generation is missing describe 0.5.0 or earlier.
What is the DLSS 5 video?
WhiteSun's 9 Nov 2026 video says they added DLSS 5. The readme lists DLSS, DLAA, DLSS frame generation, and FSR 3.1. The extra step is that creator's modification claim.
Can I run above 60 fps?
fps_limit accepts 30–240, the display rate, or unlimited. The readme calls rates above 60 experimental and says realtime=1 is required.
