FSR 3.1, AI driven FSR and few other?

[EdoTensei]

RX 7800XT seems to be good value GPU, especially when it comes to performance (non RT or upscaling), which is in nearly 90% of games, better than 4070. Not like tons of FPS, but still sometimes even up to 15-20%> 

 

As AMD announced new FSR 3.1, technically much  better than 2.2 or 3.0. At least gifs were at better quality in comparison. Which is great if it's really a good upgrade, because now FSR is really bad . 

 

FSR AI ? I mean 7000 series have some AI cores, and I would really love to see some new tech over there, which FSRAI or FSRDL or AISR . And if it will finally be at compare with DLSS, than AMD will win, because of higher performance, lower price + good quality upscaler at last

 

 

Few things I would also love to see, but rather likely won't happen, is similar tech like RTX video HDR, it is brilliant imo, and also FSR (if become AI), to be able to update the same way as DLSS. Just simple download DlSS version you like, and put into game folder. Simple as that, especially when FSR is open source. 

 

It's much easier, better and faster than waiting till new announced FSR will be implemented by Devs in 40 Games. 

 

So yeah, I think like AMD finally is on the right path.

I wouldn’t call it that way. I would say AMD got more competitive due to stagnant competition from Intel. Nvidia simply doesn’t give a shit about AMD.
 

I gotta say, FSR3 from my own experience, sucks ass. Literally makes your experience worse than playing at half FPS.

The claimed FSR 3.1 improvements do look promising. In a recent game I did try out all the upscaling options and actually found the generic version of XeSS (run on NV) to be better than both DLSS and FSR. The artefacts of FSR2/3 are too much for me. Lack of temporal stability is what I find most distracting and that is supposed to be much improved in 3.1. BTW I found it important to see this in game. I actually took screenshots to compare image quality, and without that temporal element you will get very different results.

 

Even if FSR 3.1 becomes competitive to DLSS I don't feel that really changes the competitive landscape.

I think that this is where FSR powered AI, should shows up. Because theoretically it can be used tha same way as XeSS, just without AI on other GPUs, and proper version on Intel's Arc GPUs. 

 

I still doubt that even 3.1 will be totally free from "pixelating" on whole foliage. Maybe slightly better but no matter what, if they won't do something with AI, they can still trying to catch air into the Jar, but it won't work as good as some proper AI tech. 

 

Also there is something coming from Microsoft DirectSR, so if AMD fail again with FSR 3.1, then there is hope for Microsoft, but I have this weird feeling, that no matter what technique, if it's not powered by AI, it's impossible to achieve good image quality. But hopefully I'm wrong
