The G-Asist of Nvidia was originally a April fools pranche in 2017 before becoming a real technological demo Last year and a functional AI assistant for RTX GPU owners today. The G-Assist project is now available Inside the NVIDIA application, and will help optimize game and system settings, measure image frequencies and even change lighting on connected devices.
G-Assist works as assistant AI by vocal or text prompts, so that you can ask questions like “How does the generation of DLSS work work?” And the assistant will give you a Chatppt type output. Where it becomes much more interesting, it is the possibility of asking G-Assist to optimize games for the best performance or the best image quality, or having it controlled the lighting of the devices supported by Logitech, Corsair, MSI and Nanoleaf.
You can even ask G-Assist to analyze and optimize your entire PC, so that it detects if a game has a frequency limiter, if your GPU performance is limited and what you can do to improve overall performance. It can even detect if the refresh levels are not maximum on a screen and recommend options such as GPU overclocking or reducing resolutions in play to hit the desired image frequency.
G-Assist uses a local model in small language which requires almost 10 GB of space for assistant functions and vocal capacities. The AI assistant works on a variety of RTX 30, 40 and 50 office GPU, but you will need a card with at least 12 GB of VRAM.
