2.0 Ray-trace reconstruction greyed out

[andrewdilley]

Hmm odd one. RT reconstruction option greyed out after update. RTX 4070Ti card which I guess is recognised as frame gen option is live. Tried cycling through all presets (including Overdrive), tried verifiying install (GOG) turned off MSI Afterburner, rebooted. Nada. And if I run the game I get 'dithered' graphics.

Always vanilla install, no mods.

[EDIT] Nvidia low latency reflex is also greyed out (and on) - can't remember if that's significant or not lol.

RT reconstruction is only available for Path Tracing right now.

If you activate Frame Gen, Nvidia Reflex will automatically be "On" and you can't change it

So I've selected the 'Overdrive' preset and get a pop-up saying that it's turning on path-tracing, which I copnfirm, but option is still greyed out and 'off'. Using Geforce Game Ready driver 550.09 btw.

550.9?? The current GeForce Game Ready Driver I can see is only 537.42.

I checked, rechecked, uninstalled and re-installed and still got 550.09. But then switched to Studio Driver, got 537.42 and YES it works Lovely lovely Ray Reconstruction in my face.

So something up with my Game Ready driver, I'll try switching back once I get work out of the way and see what happens.

OK just to wrap this up, found some info on web which explains. 550.09 is a beta, pushed out as a result of me being on Microsoft Windows Insider program (must have sold my soul to that ages ago but this is first issue as a result so totally forgot). Here's a relevant quote from a Guru3d forum:

Seems _nvngx.dll is missing mentions of DLSSD / "SuperSamplingDenoising" in this ver, while 537.13 / 537.34 both mention them, would mean Ray Reconstruction won't work once it's out if you're using this version, guess this was branched off before it was added.

And I guess GeForce Experience was just testing the version number and so not offering the offical release? Anyway, all good!

Not sure, however do you have any of the non-nividia upscalers on? Xess or FSR? Because these are exclusive, you can only have DLSS or one of them. Perhaps you have them on which may preclude using DLSS stuff

No it was me using a rogue beta Nvidia driver. If anything I was over-updated lol. Back to normal now.
