- AMD’s FidelityFX Super Resolution 4 (FSR 4) has been leaked ahead of CES 2025.
- FSR 4 will be exclusive to RDNA 4 GPUs and will only be available for games that support FSR 3.1
- RDNA 4 will use machine learning, similar to Nvidia’s DLSS.
According to a leaked image, AMD FidelityFX Super Resolution 4 or FSR 4 will be officially available with the launch of RDNA 4. FSR 4 will be a new upscaling solution based on machine learning, similar to Deep Learning Super Sampling (DLSS) from Nvidia.
Why it matters: FSR 4 will bring advanced upscaling technology to AMD’s latest RDNA 4 GPUs. Potential buyers will be hoping for improved performance and better image quality compared to previous iterations of FSR.
While it’s not clear yet, RDNA 4 might be limited to RDNA 4 because of its third-generation AI acceleration cores. Furthermore, AMD has stated that the FSR 4 upgrade will only be accessible in games that support FSR 3.1.
That said the reason behind the specific reference to the 9070 series is unclear and might be suggesting that the upscaling technology will not work on lower-end models. For now, these questions have no answers.
AMD did, however, confirm that FSR 4 will be compatible with Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, the only game as of yet to be formally revealed to use the technology.
It’s exciting to hear that AMD plans to use machine learning for better upscaling. However, limiting this technology to RDNA 4 goes against what AMD aimed for with the launch of FSR.
AMD However, might come up with a sub-par solution for the RDNA 2 and RDNA 3 lineup, featuring AI acceleration cores, that do have the potential to use AI-based upscaling.
