Blender DLSS Experimental Build – Free Download (RTX Only)

Hey everyone 👋

After a long compile-and-debug marathon, I finally managed to build a custom Windows version of Blender with NVIDIA DLSS Ray Reconstruction enabled in Cycles — and I’m sharing it for free with you all here on Patreon.

This is an experimental community build, not an official Blender release, but everything is working properly:

✅ Cycles GPU rendering
✅ CUDA
✅ DLSS Denoiser
✅ DLSS Quality / Balanced / Performance / DLAA modes
✅ RTX 20 / 30 / 40 series supported

📦 Download

File name:

Blender-DLSS-Experimental-Windows-x64.zip

Extract the ZIP anywhere and run:

blender.exe

(No installation required.)

⚠️ Important Notes

Please read carefully:

• This is NOT an official Blender or NVIDIA build
• Built from Blender source + NVIDIA DLSS SDK
• For testing, learning, and experimentation
• RTX GPU required
• Windows only
• Viewport DLSS is limited — best results are in final Cycles renders
• If you run into crashes or odd behavior, switch back to official Blender for production work

📜 NVIDIA SDK Notice

This build includes components from NVIDIA RTX SDKs (DLSS), used under NVIDIA’s license terms.

If you redistribute this build, you must:
• Include this notice
• Follow NVIDIA RTX SDK licensing rules
• Do not claim NVIDIA endorsement

🧠 Why I’m Sharing This

I built this mainly for research, testing, and curiosity — and figured the community might enjoy experimenting with DLSS inside Blender too.

If you make something cool with it, tag me — I’d love to see what you render 👀✨
