Today, AMD announced its major driver overhaul that was missed last year possibly due to the pandemic situation. The new WHQL driver is coming in the form of the Radeon Software Adrenalin 21.4.1. Despite a lot of new additions and updates, the driver is missing the most anticipated FidelityFX Super Resolution feature.
Fidelity FX Super Resolution is a part of AMD's FidelityFX DirectX 12 Ultimate suite and is said to be a framerate boosting technique similar to Nvidia's DLSS where an image will be rendered at a lower resolution and then upscaled to a higher resolution by using AI and ML techniques. However, AMD fans should not despair as there are rumors that FidelityFX Super Resolution will not come with a separate driver and will in fact be implemented in games separately. With that out of the way let's now talk about the loads of features that it does bring.
