I have been using it on single player games, mainly Destiny 2, running at about 120-130fps natively at max settings @1440p and getting around 230fps using the fram gen according to the AMD software with a 5ms frame gen lag. It seems to perform ok with minimal artifacts in my own experience but I never really noticed it unless I was really looking for it and is an improvement on the last version.

[raresmacovei]

AFMF2 will be outstanding when it launches in stable branch.

In the meantime, I was playing Gears 5 at 120 fps, enabled AFMF1 and it locked to 240 fps. Very nice.

EDIT: New Sept 6th 2024 Preview driver is out yo

[quintrapnell]

this looks too much like Hardware Unboxed lol

[arcta]

The only thing I know about HYPR-RX is one time I activated it by accident and it kept crashing my PC.

[michaelkoerner]

Cap frame rate, turn on afmf2, et voila, sipping power high refresh rate. I use this for diablo iv.

[乾淨核能]

frame generation reduce the reponsiveness of the game?

[grantmackinnon]

I tried the frame gen back when Avatar launched and hated the jittery hud and other weird ghosting and artifacts it created.
I have learned i was using for the wrong purpose. I turned in on while using Ray tracing at 4k ultra. It turns out my rx 7800xt didnt have a good enough base framerate, and my the framegen look like 💩.
I still cant understand what the use on ai generated frames if my base framerate need to be a the vsync cap of my monitor, being either 4k60 or 2k120.
Ill try again when i get the updated drivers and maybe ill enjoy it if i try some medium setting to get more fps.

Honestly, it's amazing. It raised Clancy's division by 60 fps for me

[photonboy]

*COMPLAINT...*
The R&C demo at roughly 22 min 24 sec is such a blurry mess in NATIVE that it's nearly impossible to compare to AFMF. I watched it at 4K in Youtube on a 4K monitor. It's NOT due to Youtube video compression because the video was sharp and clisp with the eTeknix guy right before showing this. So this is a crappy CAPTURE of gameplay. So why even spend all the time making the video then blow the most important part?

[whresmycar]

enabling Radeon Chill is better than Anti-Lag for single player games.

[evacody]

At least AMD did something where I don't have to use FSR and upscale. I use AFMF2 for my RPG games I like Witcher 3, AC Valhalla, FF7 remake, I will use it for FF16. That way I can get more out of my 1440p monitors.

[poocruncha]

Using anything with super resolution or fsr makes the graphics ugly. Amd needs to fix that. Every new game that i start i always turn those settings off.

[damazywlodarczyk]

I don't understand what is Hyper-RX. And why it's only on 7000? What do i use with 6000? Best settings for highest fps and best quality? AMFM or built in FSR2? Or something else?

[lilrusk]

The only think i find that sucks about AFMF 2 is it doesn't support eyedefinity

[BlackapinoTheTechGuy]

*Well I went from a 2080Super to the 7900xt 20GB and Now I go from 120-140fps to damn near 220-250fps for COD and Still working on Fortnite, but I haven't tried Cyberpunk YET*

[MarkLangdahl]

It's very important that you know exactly what you're doing when using it. Because unlike something like DLSS and FSR it doesn't help anything for responsiveness. Quite the opposite. It increases latency. So unless you can run your software at at least 40 and preferably 60 fps before AFMF you are better off without it. I have at times used it with some success on my Legion Go to run something at 72 fps and then interpolate to the screen's native 144 fps. But if I can only hit 30 then native 30 feels better than an interpolated 60 die to the increased latency unless we are talking something where responsiveness literally doesn't matter... Like turn based games.

[duxtons]

Would have been nice to see a comparison between AFMF's key rival - Lossless Scaling

[Ladioz]

Pointless feature for me. It overheated my graphic card as soon as i turned on the feature. I was already getting 90-100fps at native. Since its summer... adding more power to my pc is it's worst enemy. On the otherhand, I can see people who use a RX 7600 to benefit alot from this, especially if they want to play in 1440p

[pedro.alcatra]

Me: Mon, can we have some Hardware Unboxed????
Mon: We already have Hardware Unboxed at home, son

****Hardware Unboxed at home****

[nomaddemon]

sound kinda crippled... had to boost volume high to hear accurately. still washed
