NBA 2K27's DLSS 5: Subtle Visuals, Heavy Power Cost

NBA 2K27 is the first game to use NVIDIA's DLSS 5, adding subtle skin and shadow detail but cutting frame rate from 240fps to 150fps on an RTX 5090 at 4K. Power draw jumps from 400W to 525W, with one reported cable melt. DLSS 5 will eventually support RTX 4000 GPUs.
