AMD's FSR 4 Upscaling Tech Gives Even More PC Games a Free Image Quality Upgrade – but You Still Need a Modern GPU
AMD's FidelityFX Super Resolution 4 uses machine learning to enhance visuals and performance, now supported in over 85 DirectX 12 games with the latest Adrenalin driver update.
- AMD released the Software: Adrenalin Edition 25.9.1 driver on September 8, 2025, which enables FSR 4 support in over 85 DirectX 12 games at various locations worldwide.
- This update follows AMD’s March 2025 FSR 4 launch alongside RX 9000-series GPUs and builds on the prior FSR 3.1 technology for improved upscaling.
- The driver allows users to override FSR 3.1 implementations with FSR 4 in compatible games, adding new titles like Borderlands 4 and Hell Is Us to the supported list.
- AMD states that FSR 4 uses machine learning to predict lost pixels during low-resolution rendering and delivers visuals "just as good as native," enhancing performance without sacrificing quality.
- FSR 4’s expanded availability suggests improved gaming experiences but remains limited to RDNA 4 GPUs and DirectX 12, with Vulkan titles and older cards still unsupported.
