The Technical Preview for AFMF 2 is Now Available.
AMD Fluid Motion Frames (AFMF), their cutting-edge frame generation technology, improves frame rates and gameplay fluidity. The one click performance enhancing solution AMD HYPR-RX 2 offers amazing gaming experiences on AMD Radeon graphics cards and is easily integrated into AMD Software.
AMD HYPR-RX
AMD HYPR RX 6000 Series
Gamers adore using AMD HYPR-RX with AFMF, as demonstrated in the video below. AFMF is compatible with thousands of games and runs on AMD Radeon RX 6000 and 7000 series graphics cards as well as some AMD Ryzen Processors with Radeon Graphics. When they asked gamers to rate the image quality and fluidity, they gave AFMF an average score of 9.3/10.
They at AMD are always striving to enhance their software innovations, and we are thrilled to announce that they have created AMD Fluid Motion Frames, a major improvement over their first iteration of this incredible technology.
For a better frame generation experience, AFMF 2 offers additional adjustable parameters and optimisations, including AI-optimised additions for greater quality, lower latency, and better speed. Additionally, they now support borderless full screen, Vulkan and OpenGL games, and cooperative gaming with AMD Radeon Chill.
Overall, AFMF 2 is a significant advance over AFMF 1, and They are excited to release it as a technical preview so that players may provide feedback and help us make it even better.
AI-Selected Improvements
AMD Fluid Motion Frames 2 adds two modes with ideal parameters enabled by default but customisation by advanced users. They know many of you have requested more control over how AFMF works with your games.
The first is “Search Mode,” which modifies the way “fallback” functions in AFMF 2 to adjust the smoothness of frame production. In order to achieve the highest interpolated image quality in high-motion sequences, fallback refers to the temporary disabling of AFMF frame generation, which occasionally results in jitters that affects how smoothly the game runs.
They have significantly increased frame generation in AMD Fluid Motion Frames 2 by utilising AI optimisation to support the creation of an upgraded algorithm. The “Auto” Search Mode setting chooses “High” mode automatically at 1440p and higher, reducing fallback for better AFMF smoothness. 1080p is set to the “Standard” setting, which is the best option for this resolution. Comparing AFMF 2 to AFMF 1, they have also enhanced the overall visual quality for a better gaming experience in any Search Mode setting.
Enhancements in Performance
This mode offers a brand-new parameter called “Performance,” which lowers AFMF 2’s overhead and makes high frame rate gaming more feasible on a larger variety of devices. This is the default “Auto” setting for AMD Ryzen Processors with Radeon Graphics capability, and it is particularly useful when running AFMF 2 with integrated graphics cards.
AMD HYPR-RX
Reduced Latency Frame Production
With this most recent version of AFMF, they’ve also achieved some noteworthy progress in lowering the delay introduced by frame generation. When utilising AFMF 2, these enhancements are applicable regardless of the hardware, resolution, or settings mode selected. This improves more than just the appearance of the AMD HYPR-RX with AFMF 2 experience; it also makes it feel smoother.
Examine the reductions in latency in Cyberpunk 2077. Using the “Ray Tracing: Ultra” graphics preset at 4K, AFMF 2 in conjunction with their in-driver AMD Radeon Anti-Lag technology yields an average 28 percent reduction in latency when compared to AFMF 1.
Even with integrated graphics, you can play competitive eSports games at high frame rates and low latency by combining AFMF 2 with their recently developed AMD Radeon Anti-Lag 2 in-game technology. Using the “Very High” graphics enabled in Counter-Strike 2, AFMF 2 + Anti-Lag 2 improves latency over AFMF by an average of 12% on their AMD Ryzen 7 8700G Desktop Processor with Radeon 780M Graphics while maintaining a frame rate of over 120 FPS at 1080p.
Additional Modifications & Enhancements
AFMF 2 now enables borderless fullscreen when using visual cards from the AMD Radeon RX 7000 and Radeon 700M series, in addition to exclusive fullscreen modes. The already enormous list of games that can be utilised with AFMF has been further expanded with the addition of support for Vulkan and OpenGL games in AFMF 2.
Furthermore, they’ve activated AMD Radeon Chill compatibility, which enables you to set a driver-controlled frame rate cap. The native FPS cap of your AMD FreeSync display will be automatically set to half of its maximum refresh rate when you enable Radeon Chill after turning on AFMF 2. Then, Radeon Chill will stop the FPS from exceeding the maximum refresh rate (which can result in screen tearing and lower image quality) after AFMF 2 frame generation is implemented.
In games where your graphics settings are projected to generate frame rates that will surpass your monitor’s maximum refresh rate, they recommend using AFMF 2 with Radeon Chill. In situations where your expected maximum FPS will never reach your monitor’s maximum refresh rate, they recommend using AMD Fluid Motion Frames 2 with Radeon Anti-lag.
