AMD FSR Multi-Frame Generation With Up to 8x Mode in Development

AMD has reportedly been testing a new and highly anticipated FSR multi-frame generation (MFG) technology for its Radeon RX GPUs. This information comes from a third-party software called RadeonTuner, which allows access to Radeon driver settings without using the AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition application. RadeonTuner has revealed that AMD is already incorporating preliminary support for multi-frame generation into its Radeon drivers, though the feature remains hidden until the software is finalized. According to the tool's developer, AMD often places placeholders for features like this well in advance of their release, indicating that the company is extensively testing the multi-frame generation feature with options for 1x to 8x variants, which are expected to be available once the feature is fully developed.

One user attempted to enable the multi-frame generation feature using the latest driver installation and a Radeon RX 9060 XT graphics card to see if it could work with any game. However, the user discovered that the feature is currently non-functional, as AMD has not yet released the necessary model to support multi-frame generation at any setting. This suggests that only the placeholder for the feature has been included, with no underlying driver support to make it operational. Even when testing games that frequently receive FSR updates, such as Forza Horizon 6, Pragmata, Resident Evil 9, Crimson Desert, and Death Stranding 2, the feature could not be activated. It seems we are still months away from the final release of multi-frame generation support.
It's worth noting that AMD is late to the MFG game, as NVIDIA has already released its DLSS Dynamic MFG feature with up to 6x generation capability, and Intel has been offering XeSS MFG with a 4x setting for several months as part of the XeSS 3 release. Additionally, AMD GPUs currently lack hardware-based flip metering for frame pacing, relying instead on software pacing to maintain consistent frame generation. Therefore, it makes sense for MFG to be included in the current Radeon RX 9000 series and potentially in future RDNA 5 / UDNA GPU IP if they incorporate dedicated hardware-based flip metering for frame pacing.

AusWolfNot from me. The input latency with normal frame generation is bad enough, I don't want more fake frames.

It's sad to see AMD copy yet another useless Nvidia feature instead of making something truly unique to Radeon.
Well - if you are buying a 9070xt - a card that is only better in RT / PT and upscaling compared to it's predecessors (it even has less vram), what message are you sending AMD? That you are after upscaling and RT, no?

chrkellerI don't see how it can be lower. If I am rendering 120 FG, 60 fps are real (so 60 fps latency) + minor time to generate 60 fake frames. My latency is right around that of 60 fps because latency can never be lower than my rendered frames. While 120 fps rendered has half the latency of 60 fps + FG.

And smoothness is good, I just (personal opinion) think the responsive controls is the bigger gain. Even stuff like rpgs, menus are just much faster. I have gotten addicted to 120 fps rendered. Plus, the artifiacts defeat the purpose of smoothness.

Anything that is optional, by default doesn't bother me. But when I see Lego Batman putting FG as part of requirements.. plus seeing how well Monster Hunter Wilds and BL4 perform. DLSS might be a curse because developers will just phone it in.
I just looked at those Lego Batman requirements and they are absurd! I really don't want to see FG become like DLSS where unless you have a top of the line card you pretty much have to use it.

wolfI'm not sure how many different ways Please, leave me alone needs to be phrased, but I'll try it again:

Please, leave me alone.
AusWolfI commented on the topic of frame generation, and not about you, in case you haven't noticed. There is nothing personal about what I said.

While I fully respect your opinion, please excuse me if I also wish to express mine. Will you let me? Please? :)
Happy to act as messenger between you lads. I insist on handwritten correspondence though so the turnaround will be slower and postage ain't cheap.

Weird ain't it. Nowadays we're getting heightened up rendering which comes at a hefty cost and in return the games don't even look the part. UE5 seems to be one of the regular offenders.

I had a quick look at some gameplay and perf monitoring. Its a tanker. It seems rather stuttery so I'm guessing the PC version still needs quite a bit of optimisation and some shoe polishing.

I didn't have its predecessor... Which sold for £900+ (in case you're referring to the 7900 XT/XTX), while my 9070 XT was £530, roughly the same as the 6750 XT that it replaced. So the message I'm sending is that I like performance at an affordable price.

I'm fairly sure it did not sell for 900 for all of it's lifetime but okay, I digress.

It still pretty much does where it's still available. And it was certainly never anywhere close to the £500 mark where I'm shopping.

There are price history websites my man, we can check them. The 7900xt has been cheaper / as cheap as the 9070xt while offering more VRAM. Don't make this personal to you, I don't care about you, im saying in general someone buying the 9070xt sends the message that they care about RT and upscaling, since they could - for the same money - get a card 2 years earlier with more vram and similarlish raster performance already.

EG1. Lowest i've seen across both EU and the US is exactly 600$ - the equivalent of ~545€.

There isn't any winning when the koolaid enjoyers will be the loudest regardless of what AMD does.
Speaking of Kool-Aid, how much Pro AMD Kool-Aid have you had today?

You shit on Nvidia for MFG, so shit on AMD right?

Why is the UK relevant? What the hell man. It wasn't a question about your situation. I said what is AMD supposed to think when their 9070xt is selling a lot more than their RDNA 3 when the only thing that's improved is RT and upscaling? Pretty straightforward, somehow you managed to turn it into a you issue out of the blue for unknown reasons.

In case you didn't get it from my previous posts, the 9070 XT is not the successor of the 7900 XTX. Why you would even compare a £5-600 card to a £1,000 one is beyond me. The 9070 XT is more of a 7800 XT successor than anything.

Edit: No 7900 XTX owner in their right mind bought a 9070 XT. Ever. The 9070 XT is a midrange card. The same way you don't "upgrade" a 4090 to a 5070 Ti.

Here is a price history of the 7900XT, it has for the most part been a $800-900 card, only with some occasional drops to near or below $700.
Although I guess it's bad because it's AMD that you get an improvement in RT and upscaling with the 9070XT, except that is what the 50 series is as well.
Oh, and yes Nvidia is the one pushing frame gen over providing real performance increases, AMD is being forced to follow otherwise people would still complain.

But according to Jensen himself a 5070 is faster than a 4090, so the 5070Ti must be a massive upgrade. /S

I didn't. You did. I compared it to the 7900xt which dropped to a lower price than the 9070xt.

Didn't say someone replaced his 7900xt with a 9070xt. Im saying if the 9070xt sells a lot more (which it probably does?) than the 7900xt - a 2 year old newer gpu with less vram with the only obvious upsides being upscaling and RT - well the message is very clear imo. It seems AMD agrees with that message, that's why they are pushing upscaling and x8 hallucination frames instead of actual hardware upgrades

A slightly faster, $599 MSRP card with better RT sold more than an $899 one that occasinally dipped below 700 (according to you)? What are you gonna tell me next? That the sky is blue?
Why is it such a big shock that the 9070 XT isn't just slightly better, but also a lot cheaper than the 7900 XT? Better and cheaper cards sell more, right? Right? :confused:

Last gen's closest unit in price is the 7900 GRE at $549 MSRP, which came with the same 16 GB VRAM, measurably worse performance, much worse RT, and no worldwide availability.
So... what were we talking about again? :rolleyes:

Here you go, check the price history on the links. The 7900xt has been selling for cheaper for more than a year.

pcpartpicker.com/product/8ZJBD3/powercolor-reaper-radeon-rx-9070-xt-16-gb-video-card-rx9070xt-16g-a?history_days=730
pcpartpicker.com/product/7dNxFT/xfx-speedster-merc-310-radeon-rx-7900-xt-20-gb-video-card-rx-79tmercu9?history_days=730

As you can see from the graphs besides a one week period where the 9070xt was selling for 599$ it was more expensive for the rest of it's lifetime. Until April of 2025 you could find the 7900XT for 679 or less while the 9070xt was between 710 and 810 for the whole of 2025.

Anyways, im out, amd is already convinced and agrees with me, hence they are pushing hallucination x8 frames.

Except check what is available in stock, the 7900XT is $1099. Overall the 7900XT rarely sold for less than $700, which is what I showed in the price history graph.

The Powercolor 9070XT reaper sells for $689 and is slightly faster, with better ray tracing and upscaling. I don't understand why it's such a surprise that a 9070XT is cheaper and faster, or why it's so hard to admit that AMD had to add frame gen or people especially the loudest green brand buyers would still complain anyway that AMD doesn't have the same features.
I suppose it comes as a shock that a new card can be faster and cheaper than previous gen, since Nvidia doesn't do the same with the 5070Ti being $900-1000 since they cut supply to sell more hardware to AI datacenters.

It sold for less than 700$ for the majority of it's lifespan. Obviously after april 2025 wasn't made anymore, looking at prices then is completely illogical.
Hecate91AMD had to add frame gen or people especially the loudest green brand buyers would still complain anyway that AMD doesn't have the same features.
Why would AMD care about the "green brand buyers"? They would only care about the red brand buyers since those are the ones that would buy their cards. And AMD realized they need RT and upscaling to sell cards, and voila, they pushed RT and upscaling and it's selling.
Hecate91I suppose it comes as a shock that a new card can be faster and cheaper than previous gen
It isn't though. The 9070xt launched at a higher price than what the 7900xt cost at the time while having less VRAM (lol!). It's still even today more expensive than what the 7900xt used to cost back when it was current gen. Not that im surprised tbf, of course amd would cut hardware and vram and instead push for hallucination frames x8. Their brand new cards are slower than their 2022 cards - god forbid we compare them to what nvidia currently has in the market.

I dont mind framegen - and good for amd to listen to it's customers and push RT and hallucination frames - but when your fastest card is below 2022 levels of performance your priorities are off.

I'm sure, we all agree, that if you own a 7900XT or even 7900XTX, the 9070XT would feel like a side-/downgrade.
Yes, RT performance got up and upscaling will be handled better.

20 or 24 GB versus 16 GB - right now, I don't have any usecase where I needed more than 16 GB.
Talking about bandwidth, yes 320 bit / 384 bit are better than only 256 bit.
Pure raster performance - the XT and XTX will win.

Hmmm... lets say, I come from a 6700XT (launch price 479 USD (good joke) in march 2021).
Today june 15'th offerings. Known resellers and no eBay.

model / skuprice in USDprice in EUR (germany)
7900 XTX929.99 / Newegg1,315.72 / Galaxus (but I would say it's sketchy)
7900 XT936.29 / memoryC679.90 / computeruniverse / cyberport
7900 GREno offering besides Jeff Bezosno offering at all
9070 XT689.99 / Newegg649.00 / NBB


So depending on where you live and what you want to do with your investment (playing games or rendering videos to name a few) there's not a clear winner.
In germany, it would be a hard decission. 649.00 EUR vs 679.90 EUR
In the US 689.99 vs 929.99.

It's your money and you know best, what you want to do with your investment.

It didn't, look at the pricing graph on the XFX card, it only sold for around $589 a few times, average price is higher.
JustBenchingWhy would AMD care about the "green brand buyers"
Because every tech site and youtube influencer complains when AMD doesn't have the same features as the green brand, then green brand fans complain the loudest of AMD doesn't have those same features.
And as can be seen in this thread, as usual the same people complaining of lacking features hop into AMD threads to mock AMD for following their favorite brand, probably from frustration that in reality they can't bash AMD for not having those features.

Except I'm not talking about launch price, I'm referring to current pricing, which the 9070XT is cheaper than any available 7900XT I can buy right now not on the used market.
The 9070XT has less VRAM than a 7900XTX or 7900XT, it's up to the consumer if they feel the amount of VRAM is worth it however I wouldn't expect anyone to go from a 7900XT/XTX to a 9070XT.
And the card from last gen with a similar mid range price would've been the 7900GRE, same 16GB VRAM amount, $549 MSRP, for $50 more in terms of MSRP the 9070XT would be a decent upgrade being 33% faster in relative performance. A 9070XT also sells for about $300 less than a 5070Ti, but how dare anyone compare a Radeon card to what Nvidia has on the market.
I also thought cards selling was a good thing, apparently the 7900XTX didn't sell so AMD decided to focus on mid range, focusing on what sells is a good priority to have IMO.

I did. It hit 710$ for a week at the highest and then it was between 619 and 679 for all of 2024 present in the graph. You can hover the mouse over the graph and see the price.
Hecate91Because every tech site and youtube influencer complains when AMD doesn't have the same features as the green brand, then green brand fans complain the loudest of AMD doesn't have those same features.
And how is that an issue for AMD? Green brand fans complaining does nothing to hinder amd sales.

But let's be frank here, there are only red fans complaining on everything that nvidia is involved in. Come on, you know it. :p
Hecate91Except I'm not talking about launch price, I'm referring to current pricing, which the 9070XT is cheaper than any available 7900XT I can buy right now not on the used market.
Well duuuh, obviously currently it's cheaper since the 7900xt isn't being made anymore. The point was that for the majority of it's existence the 7900xt was cheaper, had more vram but sold way less than the 9070xt. That's because it was lacking in RT and upscaling, rdna 4 fixed that and added a bunch of hallucination frames and people bought it. So amd buyers prefer RT - upscaling - hallucination frames over vram and raster even though they pretend in every thread it's not the case. Sales speak for themselves.

You cannot translate USD to GBP prices the same way you convert money. Stuff is more expensive here than in the US. Maybe it comes as a shock to you, but there are import tariffs and transportation costs. I've never seen a single 7900 series card selling for less than £800.

But even if we work with your prices, which card would you buy? One that has 20 GB VRAM for $679, or the one that's considerably faster, more efficient, has better RT and upscaling, and is more modern for $710? If we look at the past, why would you waste your money on a 7900 XT when the 9070 XT is just around the corner with a rumoured 5-600 MSRP? And even earlier, when it wasn't rumoured, the 7900 XT was way more expensive.

If you find a 7900 XT cheaper than a 9070 XT, that's only because it's an old card, and not because it was cheaper to begin with. It is not the 9070 XT's predecessor.

New card is faster, old card depreciates to match value. Also, midrange sells better than high end (even old high end). This is how things have always been. Why do we even need to argue about this? :confused:

I really don't understand the nonsense. AMD didn't make a high end card this time around, even the name implies it since they went with 9070 rather than 9080 or 9090. Of course it is cheaper and has less memory. It's not the first time we've seen this. It has happened before with the 5700 XT and RX 480/RX 580. I don't understand the need to white knight the most valuable company in the world by market cap. If anything you should want AMD to sell more cards as it would mean cheaper prices for everyone, especially since Intel seems to have given up on dGPU's.
