NVIDIA rolled out Smooth Motion technology for RTX 40 series graphics cards through their latest preview drivers. The feature mirrors AMD's AFMF implementation by creating intermediate frames between traditionally rendered ones. Gamers witness doubled frame rates without requiring individual game support since the technology operates at software level. Ada Lovelace GPU owners gain access to frame interpolation that bypasses DLSS Frame Generation requirements. The 590.26 preview driver package delivers the long-awaited performance enhancement.
RTX 40 users cannot activate Smooth Motion directly through the NVIDIA App interface currently. Tech enthusiasts discovered a workaround using the NVIDIA Profile Inspector tool for enabling the feature. Testing revealed dramatic performance gains with World of Warcraft jumping from 82 frames per second to 164 frames per second. The toggle essentially doubled frame rates across compatible gaming titles. Preview driver status means users encounter occasional inconsistencies and stability issues.
The technology targets older applications lacking DLSS support while addressing CPU-limited gaming scenarios. Frame rate locked games benefit significantly from the interpolation boost without developer intervention. Visual quality improvements do not match the dramatic frame rate increases since Smooth Motion lacks DLSS complexity. Minor artifacts appear during gameplay as trade-offs for the performance gains. Gamers seeking maximum frame rate output receive a substantial 2x multiplier through the new implementation.
