AMD is diligently advancing the improvement and re-launch of its Radeon Anti-Lag+ technology, aimed at diminishing system latency. This initiative is a response to NVIDIA's Reflex technology, as confirmed by Frank Azor, AMD's gaming solutions chief, via Twitter. AMD Radeon Anti-Lag+ Back In The Pipeline
A lot of articles still look like this in the now-not-so-new-anymore dark mode:

I use Darkreader, and it looks ok with that. https://darkreader.org/

Funny thing is that better scaling by FSR 3 FG does not only look smoother, but it also means it adds less latency than DLSS 3 FG, as worse scaling means higher frame time of one "real" frame that's "buffered" for FG:
70fps basis
dlss: scaling 1% low +50%: 105fps 52,5fps 19ms
fsr: scaling 1% low +90%: 133fps 66,5fps 15ms

fsr 100% 15ms
dlss 127% 19ms
-> DLSS FG almost (or even more, as frame times vary more with DLSS 3 FG than with FSR 3 FG on RDNA3 with HAGS) adds 30% more input lag than FSR 3 FG... Of course, something like Reflex can shave off more than this, so AMD indeed needs to come up with a similar thing. Regular Anti-Lag works poorly with FSR 3 FG (stutter), so let's hope this will be better. Probably not easy to achieve, so I wouldn't be surprised if the first attempt doesn't turn out to be gold.

I loved Anti-lag+ it made a huge difference on a 4K 60Hz monitor, made it feel like 120Hz. I really hope it comes back and is equally as good as the first version because that was a really noticeable difference!

60hz will never feel like 120hz. 60hz is a pain to watch if you are just moving the mouse in windows. Is it even legal to use 60hz in 2024?

I can play 120Hz if needed for kiddie FPS games if i want 😀 Only need to lower the resolution a bit. Anti-lag+ tho made a ton of difference. I did however never try it with 120Hz will do when new version comes! I mostly play games with upscaling from 4K to 6K or 8K, like Alan Wake 2 and Enshrouded with a 7900 XTX. I prefer that over 500 FPS/Hz shooters 😉

You get used to it. Also, play a game at 30FPS for half an hour, then switch to 60. It's gonna look like the best experience ever. :P

I can definitely feel when my TV accidentally switches from 120 back to 60 (happens sometime when I use it as a TV instead of as a monitor). Everything feels a bit "sluggish", starting with moving a window around and of course, games. And it's an LG OLED with extremely low input latency and instant pixel response time. Even at 60 it's pretty good. A few weeks ago I tried playing something on an old Dell LCD (only 60hz, big input latency and slow response) at somebody's place, and it was absolutely horrible, like my brain was disconnected from my hand, misclicking things 80% of the time). How can people play console games at 30 fps on TVs that are not even set in gaming mode (huge processing latency), is completely beyond me.

some games buffer extra frames, if you have 3 frames in queue at 60hz it could be +50ms~ , at 120 its only 25ms~ , if anti lag removes/reduces this delay by 25ms , then yes 60hz can feel as responsive as 120 (note that this is different from fluidity of motion ect).

60hz is so awfull in every way, so nothing can "fix" it. 120hz lcd came in 2011? Thank god Oled and 360hz+ is here 😀
