Get Both High Frame Rate & High Resolution

Xe Super Sampling (XeSS) is Intel’s solution to get the best of both worlds and ultimately make better use of GPU resources. XeSS renders a game at a lower resolution, and then upscales the images using AI to a higher resolution with quality similar to or better than a native render.

Download the XeSS SDK from GitHub*
