To try it i went to the worst case scenario, Loreville with the clouds on Very High
The colour is weird because i had HDR on.
So, it works, its not problem free but better than i expected, its a strange experience because you can feel the lag of 30 FPS but it looks, and it does look like 60 FPS, i did have AMD's overlay on the right hand side which shows you the FPS with AFMF on, but it didn't record its own overlay.
The only thing that i noticed was when panning back over the city the yellow neon was slightly stuttery on panning, but it was at 25 FPS render.
And that's the thing, this is not the proper Frame Gen stuff, AMD have that too but like Nvidia the game needs to support it, this is just something AMD did no you can have an admittedly poorer version of it in any game, even AMD say its not problem free and you shouldn't even use it unless you're running 60 FPS or more render frames.
Ultimately i think its good that AMD put the work in to give us this, even if its not perfect, it does work, even at 30 FPS, now i'm sure that some tech jurno could spend a couple of hours analysing that video frame by frame to point out all sorts of problems and call it _____ because as Linus and others have admitted negative videos are the ones that get views.
But i'm, not doing that, i'm just playing the game, and it is an improvement vs not running it, even at 30 FPS.
So would i run it daily? In short: No, not as things are, the long version is while yes it does look smoother it still feels like 30 FPS and there is some weirdness about it in Star Citizen, because of the low FPS, so until the frame rates in SC improve i'd rather keep it as is, i don't know why but i feel that if it feels 30 FPS laggy then it should look 30 FPS laggy.
However, am going to try it in other games that are 60 FPS +.
So for all the negative tech videos collecting clicks from AMD's work i'd like to say good job AMD for giving us this option and putting the work in, because why bother if everyone is just going to hate on it for clicks when you your self say its not perfect but its there if you want to try it, thank you!
Hopefully SC will get proper Frame Gen.
