Over a year later, AMD is bringing improved FSR 4 upscaling to its older GPUs
FSR 4.1 running on RDNA3 or RDNA2 GPUs may take a bigger performance hit.

When AMD announced version 4 of its FidelityFX Super Resolution (FSR) graphics upscaling technology early last year, it came with strings attached: The improved hardware-backed image quality would be available only on Radeon RX 9000-series GPUs based on the RDNA4 architecture, not on any older Radeon GPUs.

To date, AMD has released only a handful of 90-series graphics cards, including the RX 9070 XT, the RX 9070, the 8GB and 16GB versions of the RX 9060 XT, and an RX 9060 that's only available to PC companies rather than end users. That list notably doesn't include any integrated GPUs, such as those found in AMD-powered thin-and-light laptops or gaming handhelds like the Steam Deck and its imitators.

Over a year later, AMD Computing and Graphics SVP Jack Huynh has announced that a version of FSR 4 is finally coming to older GPUs. The rollout will begin in July with RDNA3- and 3.5-based GPUs, which include the Radeon RX 7000 series, as well as integrated GPUs like the Radeon 890M and Radeon 8060S.
