About OptiScaler
OptiScaler is a free, open-source tool that bridges upscaling and frame generation technologies across graphics cards and games. It supports replacing native upscalers (DLSS2+, XeSS, FSR2+) with alternative options, enables frame generation on non-FG titles via experimental OptiFG, and includes bundled integrations for latency reduction and DLSS-FG to FSR3 FG conversion. The project has no official website or official manager app; legitimate distribution is limited to its GitHub repository, official Discord server, and Nitec's NexusMods page, with all monetary requests for the tool being scams.
