Ultra quality preset is very welcome IF the image quality is close to original.

10 games/devs? Lol welcome to the future amd users we will see you in 2 or 3 years! I'm really appreciating the timing though they literally are only acknowledged it exists and have 0 to show for it... But hey gotta try and keep that Nvidia thunder down SOMEHOW!

a) The statement is "OVER 10 games and engines". b) Is GPU agnostic, NV cards (GTX10 series) work with FSR so all the consoles, AMD Ryzen APUs and GPUs all way back to RX 500! (so possibly 480/470 also). Does DLSS works with GTX1060? Nope. c) How many games supported DLSS on it's the 12 months came out? 6. SotRT, BF5, Metro, Monster Hunter, Anthem, Control.

KissSh0t:

Any kind of hint at what gpu's will be able to support this?

AMD Ryzen APUs, RX500 (so probably 480/470 also), Vega, 5000, 6000 and Ryzen consoles (Xbox X Series, PS5). Nvidia GTX/RTX 1000, 2000, 3000 at least. Might see GTX900 working too

WhiteLightning:

It looks like motion blur somehow

The image is from a moving video not static image.

Trying to find a comparison screen not in JPG format which AMD used, but so far no luck, will keep searching.

Cool to se AMD bringing an Open source solution to the table opposed to Nvdia´s proprietary option. Although i can understand Nvidia´stance on this one opposed to some other crap they did before...

It's good for a first release and the openness is great, but has a ways to go to catch up with DLSS 2.0. I think in most cases, I'd rather just lower other details in the game.

Hey, your GTX 1080 Ti can definitely use that, free performance upgrade compliments of the 'enemy', AMD.;):D

Microsoft and Khronos need to develop a method/call in their APIs for stuff like this, where each vendor can plug whatever method they want underneath.

Looking forward to this. Hope many games will support the feature retroactively as well. I hope active-development games like MS Flightsim and Elite Dangerous and other heavy titles, especially for VR, will get this patched in.

NvidiaFreak650:

Cat out of the bag, mod remove the post on reddit. AMD FidelityFX Super Resolution = Checkerboard Rendering v2.0 + Radeon Image Sharping (CAS). Short version: AMD FidelityFX Super Resolution use a update version of Checkerboard Rendering plus AMD customized version of TAA and FidelityFX Contrast Adaptive Sharpening. pretty much why all GPU from RX 580 series to 6000 series are supported.

It'll be open source shortly, so how it works will be no secret.

tbh looks terrible - without AI cores to predict the "missing" pixels its nothing special and the images shows it... but nice try AMD...

AMD Formally Unveils FidelityFX Super Resolution: Open Source Game Upscaling (anandtech.com)

At this point AMD is not disclosing which games will support the technology, but the messaging right now is that developers will need to take some kind of an active role in implementing the tech. Which is to say that it’s not sounding like it can simply be applied in a fully post-processing fashion on existing games ala AMD’s contrast adaptive sharpening tech. ... However the million dollar question – and the question that AMD won’t really be answering until the 22nd – is what the resulting image quality of FSR will be like. Like other upscaling techniques, FSR will live or die by how clean of an image it produces. Upscaling techniques are going for “good enough” results here, so it doesn’t need to match native quality, however it needs to be enough to produce a reasonably sharp image without serious spatial or temporal artifacts.

Good read.

I will wait for reviews and comparations before getting exited, we all know how bad DLSS1 was

Yep, I sorta, kinda expected PQ to be not that good (nVidia specialized hardware + software > AMD software only), but hopefully, it'd be sufficiently good enough initially with better PQ as AMD polishes the tech.

Whilst I will never use this as I don't like upscaling of any kind (even DLSS 2.0), this will/could kill DLSS and become the primary solution. Think about it, consoles will have full support so cross platform support should be easier than adding in DLSS just for PC. It supports a wider range of GPU's on PC not just 2 generations of RTX cards. This explains why Nvidia has been rampant lately slapping DLSS into everything they can get their hands on. This tech scares them, as they only want one thing and that is a monopoly of the market which is bad for everyone (and yes I know AMD wouldn't turn down more marketshare either but this is a good move opening it up). For AMD to open this up to Nvidia hardware as well is a really cool move and only goes to help the industry as a whole. Nvidia will HAVE to beg if not pay developers to include DLSS as why would devs want to waste their time on supporting something not that many people have access too? Most people are still rocking RX580's, GTX1060's, 1070's.. mostly due to prices of new hardware or the shortages of new stock. Also this will have the greatest impact on laptops and tablets that are still running older pascal GPU's or AMD APU's. Factor in power consumption as well, using DLSS certainly isn't free as the hardware required to drive it needs power whereas this solution from AMD could actually have the reserve effect and actually save power extending battery life in these machines. Whilst also keeping costs of machines down as no longer will you need to fork out more money for a laptop with an RTX card. Lets see what happens on June 22nd then, hopefully it has a good beginning, anyone wanting this to fail is literally wanting the PC GPU market to become a 1 company show.

Awesome news , free performance is free so no complains here , my 3400G apu says thank you 🙂

Except it's not free. It's coming at an image quality cost.

I love seeing this kind of comments. It shows how people forget what nVIDIA did with the 1st RTX series launch when it was screaming about Raytracing, yet not only did they not have a game to show it for months after release, they didn't even provide a demo to their customers to run and experience.

Looks like DLSS is being replaced. I hear that developers find FSR much easier to implement and it does not segment the pc gaming market to specific cards. FSR will support all AMD RX cards as well as nvidia cards. Looks like Nvidia 1000 series owners have something to look forward to...from their sworn competitor. LOL

Whoever has a faceless corporation as their sworn enemy really gotta get out more.
