AMD continues develop technologies to increase FPS in games that do not require support from developers. Following FSR 3.0 image scaling, the company introduced the second generation of its proprietary frame generation technology — Fluid Motion Frames 2 (AFMF 2).
The new AI-optimized AFMF promises higher performance and lower latency than its predecessor. In addition to improved frame quality, AFMF 2 boasts support for Vulkan and OpenGL games, as well as new manual settings.
Among them is the Search Mode, which is responsible for the smoothness of frame generation and minimizes possible lags. Depending on the screen resolution, users can choose one of three types of settings: Auto, Standard and High.
AMD claims that in Cyberpunk 2077, the tandem of AFMF 2 and Anti-Lag can reduce latency by an impressive 28%. In turn, on the integrated Radeon 780M graphics (Ryzen 7 8700G processor) in Counter-Strike 2, the combination of these technologies provides a 12% more effective reduction in latency compared to the previous version. At the same time, at a resolution of 1080p with high graphics settings, the “integrated” one produces more than 120 frames per second.
For now, only owners of discrete Radeon RX 7000/6000 graphics cards and Ryzen 7000 processors with integrated graphics can try out the benefits of AFMF 2. AMD plans to add AFMF 2 to the official Radeon driver in Q4 2023. The question arises: will AFMF 2 be the trump card that will allow AMD to attract the attention of gamers who prefer solutions from competitors?
