AMD has announced the release of FidelityFX Super Resolution 3.1, a significant upgrade to its existing FSR technology. This latest update brings improvements to upscaling quality, decouples frame generation from AMD’s upscaling, and offers enhanced support for developers.
One of the primary enhancements in AMD’s FSR 3.1 is the improved temporal upscaling image quality. Compared to its predecessor, FSR 3.1 reduces image flickering and eliminates ghosting artifacts, providing a smoother visual experience for users. These improvements aim to address common annoyances experienced by gamers during fast-paced movements and transitions.
Furthermore, FSR 3.1 introduces the decoupling of frame generation from the upscaling process, a feature previously integrated into FSR 3. This development leverages AMD’s Fluid Motion Frames (AFMF) optical flow interpolation, utilizing temporal game data such as motion vectors to insert an additional frame between existing ones. This innovation has the potential to enhance performance and deliver a more seamless gaming experience.
Notably, game developers will be responsible for implementing FSR 3.1, with the highly anticipated title ‘Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart’ set to be one of the first games to support this new technology later this year.
With the release of FSR 3.1, AMD continues to demonstrate its commitment to advancing gaming technology and providing enhanced visual experiences for users of Radeon RX 6000 and 7000-series graphics cards.
