AMD is preparing a major software refresh dubbed “Redstone” that could bring AI‑driven frame generation and improved ray‑tracing to its Radeon RX 9000 series GPUs. A user‑discovered driver file referencing AFMF 3 – AMD Fluid Motion Frames – suggests the feature may arrive with the next 25.20 Adrenalin driver. Redstone also aims to upgrade FidelityFX Super Resolution 4 (FSR 4) and may backport it to older RDNA 3 GPUs, narrowing the gap with Nvidia’s DLSS 4. The update could reduce ghosting and input lag while offering broader hardware support. Read more

Nvidia and Intel have announced a partnership that includes a $5 billion investment by Nvidia to create x86 system‑on‑chips that integrate Nvidia RTX GPU chiplets. The collaboration aims to power a new generation of consumer PCs, including handheld gaming devices that could leverage DLSS 4 for improved performance and visual quality. By combining Intel's CPU expertise with Nvidia's graphics technology, the alliance seeks to challenge AMD’s current lead in the portable gaming market. Read more

AMD’s latest 25.9.1 driver brings its FSR 4 AI‑upscaling and frame‑generation technology to the majority of games that already support FSR 3.1 with DirectX 12. By toggling a setting in the AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition app, users can force FSR 4, which leverages machine‑learning, to replace the older implementation. The update officially adds support for more than 85 titles, including recent releases such as Cyberpunk 2077, Ghost of Tsushima, and F1 25. AMD positions FSR 4 as a significant leap forward and a direct competitor to Nvidia’s DLSS 4. Read more
