FidelityFX Super Resolution is AMD's answer to Nvidia's DLSS, set to debut this year

AMD has confirmed that FSR "FidelityFX Super Resolution" is coming this year to rival nVidia's DLSS as a more open solution. AMD has yet to bring an equivalent technology to Radeon GPUs, and while many have resorted to using a lower than native resolution in combination with Radeon Sharpening or FidelityFX CAS to achieve somewhat similar results, that's not an ideal nor equivalent solution. AMD has been working on FidelityFX Super Resolution (FSR), a technology that would work across several AMD Radeon GPUs including those found in the Xbox Series X/S and the PlayStation 5. Understandably, it's trying to get it right on both PC and consoles, so it wasn't ready in time for the launch of the Radeon RX 6000 series graphics cards, nor the new generation of gaming consoles. AMD's FSR won't necessarily be based on machine learning, which should offer a glimmer of hope to a lot of gamers stuck with older Radeon cards. At least in theory, AMD is aiming to launch FSR for all compatible hardware in one go, so the new upscaling tech could very well be based on Microsoft's DirectML API. As exciting as all of this sounds, we'll have to wait and see how AMD's approach works in practice.
