Follow the instructions here to set the global nvidia preset to F or E. This will greatly reduce the ghosting introduced by DLSS.

I have a 3070 and use only DLAA. So far it's decent with my other DCS settings although I don't do MP.

I get no FPS boost . At all! If its 1 -5 FPS, its not noticeable.

[DmitriKozlowsky]

What is meant by 'ghosting'. I don't see ghosting with DLSS. I get weird noise and instruments are hard to read. At normal view zoom in any given cockpit, it is difficult to make out QNH/QFE seeting on altimeter or mechanical fuel weight. The numbers are noisy (animated noise) and blurry. So is the terrain, and it is irritating to look at.Especcially in slow speed helicopter flight, or hovering. Perhaps DLSS is good for fast motion 1st or 3rd person shooters or running games, but for DCS , DLSS kind of well..... It sucks.

Turn off DLSS. Solved!

I did. But want to point out that DLSS kind of sucks in DCS, and advice on DLSS setting presented here are kind of worthless. 

Like that DLSS change from E to F or vice versa using a downloadable util (which fails Norton chack). Does nothing! E or F ot back to E. DCS with DLSS looks the same.There is no noticeable improvement in FPS, only degradation in graphics clarity. So I go through all these trouble, and result is 'nothing'.

I think DLSS will always add artifacts. I notice this too in flight sims with their displays and such. Probably just inevitable. Really the highest quality setting for DLSS is Off. I also detect that it works better at higher frame rates likely because then it has more information to work with. It seems better at turning 100 FPS into 120 than turning 30 into 60. I’m already at 100-120 without it and when I enable I can hardly notice (any performance increase would be beyond my monitor cap). In another flight sim with more demanding performance the quality degradation is very noticeable. Yes there’s a boost but it comes with a quality loss. 
If you aren’t seeing an fps boost then you’re probably CPU limited.

DLSS 3.5 Frame Generation may be another thing. I’m using that in another game and it seems pretty good although in another flight sim the quality loss is still noticeable as flickers on the displays and some textures.

I’m very much not a fan of DLSS upsampling in VR, though it seems to work well on a monitor.

However, I really rate the DLAA I’m VR

I've been playing with settings for what seems like an eternity. Just like many other folks. I think I finally found a set of settings that seems to work very well for me. Running 13900k 5.6ghz all p cores, undervolted, HT disabled, DCS locked to 8 p-cores with process lasso, 64gb, 4090. DFR enabled. I locked my Varjo Aero at 45 hz, Motion-smoothing enabled. I run PD in-game of 1.7 with pretty high settings all around. With that level of downscaling I can get by not running any anti-aliasing at all. The cockpit is crystal clear and I have little to no stuttering and everything is very smooth. There's still some ghosting with other aircraft at times. I can enable TAA And I don't really notice any performance degradation and it helps with shimmering a little bit and doesn't seem to make the ghosting any worse. 

The Aero only offers 30, 45 and 90 hz...  If it offered 60 like my g2 did I think it would be golden.
