PC gamers testing Gears of War: E-Day on NVIDIA RTX 5080 and RTX 5090 cards can now push frame rates well beyond 170 FPS at 4K resolution. This configuration relies on a specific DLSS 5 mod that injects Multi-Frame Generation into the game. The technique matters because it allows high-end hardware to exceed the native performance limits of the title. Players seeking maximum visual fidelity at 4K Ludicrous settings should consider this setup.
Modders bypass anti-cheat to inject Multi-Frame Generation for high frame rates
The game itself lacks native support for DLSS 5, which forces users to rely on external modification tools. To enable the required RHI and DLSS 5 features, players must disable the game’s Easy Anti-Cheat system. This step involves running a specific batch file called EACbegone.bat to bypass the security layer. The workaround is necessary because the anti-cheat software prevents the Reshade mod from functioning correctly.
- Test GPU: NVIDIA RTX 5080, RTX 5090
- Test CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D
- Test RAM: 32GB DDR5 6000MHz
- Test OS: Windows 10 64-bit
- Test Driver: NVIDIA Game Ready 617.14
Testing was conducted on a system equipped with an AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D processor and 32GB of DDR5 memory running at 6000MHz. The machine ran Windows 10 64-bit and utilized the NVIDIA Game Ready 617.14 driver. These components provided the baseline for measuring the impact of the DLSS 5 Multi-Frame Generation X4 feature. The hardware setup represents a high-end configuration typical for 4K gaming benchmarks.
With DLSS 5 enabled in Performance Mode and Multi-Frame Generation X4 active, the game achieved between 170 and 190 FPS at 4K Ludicrous settings. Without the DLSS 5 mod, the same settings yielded a higher baseline of 200 to 220 FPS. Removing the Multi-Frame Generation component while keeping DLSS 5 dropped the frame rate to 50 FPS. These figures highlight the significant performance boost provided by the multi-frame generation technique.
Gears of War: E-Day is available for pre-order in its Premium Edition. The game also saw recent peripheral releases, including a dedicated keyboard and mouse bundle from 8BitDo. Our coverage of the last Gears of War: E-Day update noted similar balance and stability themes in earlier patches. The current modding scene offers a technical alternative for users willing to adjust their system configuration.
The DLSS 5 mod provides a viable path to high frame rates for RTX 50 series owners. Users must accept the trade-off of disabling anti-cheat protections to access these performance gains. The configuration delivers a distinct visual and performance experience compared to the vanilla game. This approach remains the only known method to utilize DLSS 5 with this title.
