AMD has announced that its next-generation FSR 4.1 upscaling technology will be available for older Radeon RX graphics cards, starting with RDNA 3 GPUs in July 2023. Previously exclusive to the Radeon RX 9000-series, FSR 4.1 will now enhance gaming performance on RX 7000 cards through AI-powered upscaling, even without the necessary specialized hardware. Jack Huynh, AMD's Senior Vice President and General Manager of Computing Graphics, stated that his team meticulously optimized the model to ensure performance on older cards, focusing on memory usage and reducing artifacts in fast-moving scenes. AMD has tested FSR 4.1 on hundreds of PC configurations and promises support for over 300 games at launch. Users of RDNA 2 GPUs will have to wait longer, as support for these older models is scheduled for early 2027. This approach contrasts with NVIDIA's DLSS 4, which, while available on all RTX GPUs, restricts advanced features to newer models.
