When NVIDIA launched DLSS 3, it brought as a novelty the so-called frame generation (FG), which allowed GPUs to create new frames from previous ones with the help of artificial intelligence. AMD and its FSR 2 could not compete with this technology, and it was believed that it would be impossible to implement without artificial intelligence. However, it hasn’t happened since then AMD FSR 3 It already exists, and this is one of the first games to implement it Prophesiedwhere We will compare how it works and looks with DLSS.
Many times a new game comes out, we see the requirements and think that our computer will be able to play it at ultra high and 60 FPS or more. It can happen that we find ourselves in a situation where when we start the game we do not reach 60 FPS and we need to look for what to do. maybe lower the graphics yes, but it is equivalent lose a lot of qualityjust as if we were to proceed to lower the resolution. This is where NVIDIA DLSS and AMD FSR upscaling technologies come into play.
AMD FSR 3 arrives at Forspoken and here are its specs and performance
As we already reported, AMD has finally released FSR 3 y Fluid Motion Frames, competitors DLSS 3 and Frame Generation. Among the first games to be FSR 3 compatible we have Prophesied, which has already been tested to see how it looks and its performance. At Wccftech, they ran tests with a PC equipped with a i9-13900K, 32 GB of DDR5 RAM at 7200 MHz and two graphics cards, AMD RX 7900 XTX and RTX 4090.
First of all, we should note that FSR 3 in this game allows several options: Frame generation, FSR 3 AA, Quality mode, Balanced mode, Performance mode in Ultra performance mode. Starting with RTX 4090there is 74 FPS from average to 4K in native resolution. At the moment, we put FSR 3 AA, which is where we would go down 62 FPSalthough we get a better smoothing. By switching FSR 3 to Quality mode, we managed to get up to an average of 96 fps, which is slightly lower than DLSS 2 Quality’s 104 fps. On the other hand, FSR 3 Performance achieves the same 120 FPS as DLSS 2.
FSR 3 achieves very good quality and performance, but suffers from FPS drops
Let’s move on to what we’re most interested in, which is the addition of Fluid Motion Frames, which is called Frame Generation in the game. Here we see almost double the performance with FSR 3 AA FG achievement 110 frames per second vs. 62 FPS before. U FSR 3 FG Quality we jump to 169 frames per second and Art Performance FSR 3 FG let’s go to 205 frames per second. As we can see, there are huge FPS jumps, about double compared to FSR 3. Latency is also reduced, but what catches our attention is that there is a 1% FPS drop.which does not happen in NVIDIA DLSS.
If we now move on to RX 7900 XTX With the same tests, but without DLSS, we see similar results. U native you stay with 81 FPShorse FSR 3 AA suffering a fall to 52 FPSby installing FSR 3 Quality and performance are achieved 83 in 102 FPS, respectively in Forspoken. Now we’ll move on to the FSR Quality FG, which is where we landed 152 FPSthen FSR 3 quality with smooth frames where we see growth greater than 160 frames per second and finally FSR 3 FG Performance horse 188 FPS.
Now that we’ve seen the performance, it’s time to talk about quality, and that’s it AMD FSR 3 looks almost identical to DLSS 2. The problem, as we said before, is that the minimum FPS drops, so what hay stuttering. Also, with AMD Frame Generation enabled, we can see that it doesn’t work, offering a lower minimum FPS than if it’s disabled. Performance is great at the moment, but in perspective liquidity, NVIDIA DLSS continues to win.
