HDR stands for High Dynamic Range. This format supports deeper colour depth and strong contrast and displays video or images like genuine objects. Thus, HDR is popular in gaming, photography, and films. NVIDIA’s AI converts SDR to HDR on GeForce RTX 40 series GPUs. It can enhance user immersion. HDR-certified monitors are still needed to display images and video. NVIDIA RTX Video HDR will now demonstrate NVIDIA RTX Video HDR on MSI gaming desktops and QD-OLED monitors.
NVIDIA RTX Video HDR requires various criteria to work effectively
Monitors support HDR10. Monitor brightness must approach 1000 nits. Each MSI QD-OLED monitor can reach 1000 nits.
NVIDIA GeForce RTX. The feature is available on GeForce RTX 20–40 series cards. They recommend a GeForce RTX 40 series graphics card for optimum performance.
Upgrade or install the newest GPU driver to enable RTX video HDR in NVIDIA Control Panel.
After preparing, are configure

Enjoy gaming
]They can now play games and watch HDR videos. NVIDIA RTX video HDR can replace native HDR. Some media and influencers say NVIDIA RTX Video HDR outperforms native HDR.
For reference, here are RTX Video HDR and non-HDR comparisons. Differences include brighter and deeper contrast.
Monster Hunter Rise does not support HDR, although NVIDIA AI-enhanced RTX Video HDR can be used. To simulate HDR game graphics.
Helldivers 2 is a fast-growing game that breaks records. They may conclude that the game is intriguing and draws many participants. Many gamers are compatible, yet the game cannot display HDR adequately. Washout or greyed game display. Nowadays, they may use NVIDIA RTX Video HDR to increase game display without side effects.
Finally, for optimal RTX Video HDR performance, they recommend the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 40 series graphics card, which has the most powerful AI computing ability and enough VRAM. Naturally, an HDR-certified display is crucial. They need a good display to watch lovely films and photos. All MSI gaming desktops feature NVIDIA GeForce RTX 40 series graphics cards, and OLED monitors are offered.
If the monitor doesn’t support HDR10 (1000nits), the graphics card’s RTX Video HDR capability won’t work.
NVIDIA adds AI-powered tools to creative and gaming. They released NVIDIA Video Super Resolution, an AI-enhanced video upscaler. It can upconvert 1080p to 4K. For optimal footage, They can use RTX footage Super Resolution and HDR. See the tutorial below for details.
Future of NVIDIA RTX Video HDR
With a bright future, NVIDIA RTX Video HDR is a revolutionary technology. The potential is broken down as follows:
Upconverting SDR to HDR
Converting SDR to HDR using RTX HDR uses AI to convert SDR film to HDR for HDR monitors. This could greatly enhance the streaming content’s quality, giving it a more vivid and detailed appearance.
Make HDR more accessible
Increasing the accessibility of HDR: Not all content is now available in HDR. By enabling the potential to view a vast library of SDR content in HDR format, RTX Video HDR fills this gap.
Video processing evolution
RTX Video HDR technology is a step towards AI-powered video processing. Future developments with this technology might include content generation and real-time video editing.
There are some restrictions:
Enhancements that are minor
According to reviews, RTX Video HDR can bring about some subtle enhancements.
Restricted platform support
At the moment, it only functions with a few different web browsers and needs an RTX graphics card.
Work in progress
The accuracy and processing power of the technology can be enhanced, as it is still relatively new.
