​

FidelityFX Super Resolution, better known as FSR, has been an important application for video games running on AMD hardware in recent years, helping players with perhaps lower specs to get a bit more of performance out of their favourite games without sacrificing much of the overall quality of the game itself, allowing for better framerates and good image quality even at lower resolutions.

Today, AMD has shared the news that their newly developed version of FSR, FSR 3, is now available as an open source project based under an MIT license for game developers to include into their gaming titles, with compatibility with DirectX12 and Unreal Engine 5, and while Vulkan is currently not supported for FSR3, AMD mentioned that they are working on bringing support for it.

Currently, FSR3 is supported in games like Cyberpunk 2077, Starfield and Starship Troopers: Extermination, and with FSR3 becoming open source, we can only expect this list of titles to grow and expand to more popular franchises.

Dayum, AMD going hard today.

Not just on AMD hardware. Honestly my GTX 1080 do seem to like FSR


Still waiting for extensive tests with HYPR-RX and Antilag+ on competitive games, tho it seems that Antilag+ is working nicely so my next graphics card might be an AMD one

 

[pustal]

under an MIT license​

I'd say this is more important even than being open source. Great news!

If it works on an NVIDIA GPU aswell then good for me else idc

How is this with VR? I know you want high framerates for fast response times but I wonder if it would seem better to have 144 fps visually whilst having response times at 90 fps?

This is how things should be done, knowledge sharing is caring!

Love U AMD!

If you're talking about frame generation then it's a non-issue with Reflex (which is enabled by default with DLSS) and Antilag+ with FSR. It's not as responsive as native framerate, obviously, but it's still improved.

 

[chrisrlink]

it does

if only apple allowed drivers for nvidia post high sierra oh well i hoped them open sourcing it could lead to it

You’re goddamn right

From reading the linked amd info, FSR 3 adds frame generation and an option for FSR AA at native resolution. It specifically says that if you don't use frame generation and just integrate upscaling then you're just getting FSR 2.

Here's to hoping it gets added to Cyberpunk quickly

 

[HarveyHouston]

AMD over Intel any day. Even AMD's failures seem better than Intel's, IMHO.

There is already a mod for that (u can even use the fsr frame generation).
Works great with my 2080ti

Official fsr 3 support will take some time

Well yeah but that doesn't really do anything for those of us with Radeon cards xd

fsr 3 is looking pretty good for low spec gpu:

I hope FSR3 gets added to more AAA titles, like the main Capcom ones and other highly demanding games.
