Bit of a shame they're moving away from being able to run FSR on any GPU, but it makes sense since it'll be using their AI cores similar to how DLSS does it for better quality and performance.

I mean you can't run DLSS on AMD so they're returning the favor, sadly

I use optiscaler to use dlss on amd it just converts it to fsr 3.1 or xess. I use the experimental release with frame generation to manage to play games that dont quite have a stable fps on my minipc as well as my steam deck.

https://github.com/artur-graniszewski/DLSS-Enabler I think windows users can use this instead but ive never used it. Optiscaler is part of it i think.

They made FSR vendor-agnostic for reasons that turned out to be irrelevant in the long run. It was just couple of years ago when games supported DLSS only and engines weren’t ready for plugging multiple different upscaling solutions. Nvidia and AMD tried to get exclusivity deals and things seemed fire for a moment. AMD hoped FSR would be enough for smaller players to adopt it but being vendor-agnostic handicapped them so much that everyone developed their own solution anyway (PSSR, XeSS). Not that it really matters that much because in the end modern AA gives similar results to old FSR and game devs will use what works best.
