AMD Releases FSR SDK 2.4 With FSR 4.1.2 Support For Radeon RX 6000 GPUs & Ryzen APUs, Vulkan Support And Improved Frame Pacing
Wccftech • • technology
Key Points:
- AMD has released FSR "Redstone" SDK 2.4, enabling machine-learning-powered FSR Upscaling 4.1.2 on Radeon RX 6000 Series GPUs and select Ryzen APUs, with full Vulkan support for FSR upscaling and frame generation.
- The update introduces a full INT8 ML model for RDNA 2 GPUs and Ryzen AI Max processors, plus a lightweight INT8 model for less powerful APUs, with automatic hardware-based model selection.
- Vulkan support now matches DirectX 12 feature parity for FSR Upscaling and Frame Generation, but Vulkan game developers must integrate the new SDK to enable ML-based FSR upgrades.
- Radeon RX 9000 Series GPUs gain improved frame pacing via Driver-Assisted Frame Pacing, reducing CPU overhead and improving frame delivery consistency under certain system conditions.
- Additional enhancements include ray-tracing denoising improvements exclusive to RDNA 4+ GPUs, and the SDK 2.4 is available on AMD's GitHub, though widespread adoption depends on developer integration.
