Companies that develop graphics cards offer several technologies that allow us to improve the appearance of our games, as well as their performance. In the case of NVIDIA we can activate filters to change color, focus and even activate the new function. HDR that they included. We can do all this in an extremely simple way, since only one key combination is necessary to allow this way of visually improving our favorite video games.

This function allows anyone who has a branded graphic and all the necessary drivers to modify the image of any player in a way that can change colors, tones and add special features that allow them to personalize the entire graphic style that they offer. Games.
In some games we can even use this to improve our competitive experience, since it is possible, through a combination of these, to create a map that is normally very dark and of high quality. This can be an advantage for many people in certain games, since for example we can ensure that in a purely competitive title like Dead by Daylight we can clearly see everything that is happening around us, which is perfect for people who seek to win above all else, although obviously this will not affect our ability in the game.
