AMD has officially launched its Fluid Motion Frames 2 (FMF2), an AI-powered frame generation technology designed to rival Nvidia’s DLSS offerings. Initially available in a beta version of the Adrenalin software package back in July, FMF2 has now reached a stable release with the rollout of Adrenalin version 24.9.1.
Promoting FMF2, AMD highlights its capabilities as “AI-optimized for improved quality and smoothness.” The technology aims to reduce frame generation latency while minimizing overhead on integrated graphics. Notably, FMF2 supports borderless full-screen mode, a significant advantage for gamers running multiple applications simultaneously. Additionally, it is compatible with games utilizing Vulkan and OpenGL graphics, expanding its usability across various titles.
FMF2 is supported on AMD’s RX 6000 and RX 7000 series graphics cards for both desktop and laptop systems, as well as integrated graphics systems featuring RDNA 3 architecture, including the latest Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 laptops. AMD claims that by leveraging FMF2 alongside its Hyper-RX suite of tools, gamers can potentially achieve double or even triple the frame rate compared to the game’s base performance, provided they have high-end hardware like the RX 7900 XTX card.
The Adrenalin 24.9.1 update also introduces new features such as “geometric downscaling,” which helps to reduce visual artifacts when video and game windows are downscaled. Furthermore, it adds HYPR-Tune support for several recent games, including Black Myth Wukong, God of War Ragnarök, Space Marine II, and Frostpunk 2. Users can download the updated driver suite to take advantage of these enhancements.
