Already explained. AMD didn't want to put it into the driver even though they easily can, if it's in their driver then Nvidia and Intel won't use it. By putting into the game you force Nvidia and Intel GPU to use it.

To be fair, HDR600 was considered to be quite decent back in 2016
PC monitors are only 5 years behind TV tech..
This be true though. Tone has definetely changed now xD
Thank you for the laugh. I forgot how back in the day the cool thing was to go crazy about rendering in a higher resolution and downscale. Now it is the reverse. Feels like being back in school again.
Hot take: AMD is only trying to push FSR onto Nvidia so it can compete in a level playing field
AMD has no answer for DLSS, if they can push developers to use FSR they can get more favourable comparisons where Nvidia doesn't have the clear advantage in image quality. FSR = trying to lower your competitors superior image quality so you only have to compete on framerate
let's see how many jimmies this rustles

Your statement is most likely correct but your reasoning is questionable.

Everything this guy says is questionable. Nothing is correct just make up trash talk and sends threads out of control.

And you could say the same thing about TV only just catching up to monitors in refresh rates and response times.
PC gaming monitors over the last couple of years have made some very good advancement with IPS panel showing amazing responses times and refresh rates to complete with TN panels.
Show me a TV I could by 5 years ago with the specs of lg 27GP950
I'll wait.....
Edit: 6am
As I expected Grim5 posts rubbish and runs away when proven wrong.

You obviously haven't used Trixx Boost matey.
I have used it on my old Sapphrie 5700XT and it is nothing like FSR or DLSS. I initially thought it was some upscaling tech like DLSS but it certainly isn't. It simply creates a custom resolution slightly lower than your native monitor resolution and then relies on standard gpu scaling to fill the screen so you get a small boost in performance due to the lower resolution. Taking a screenshot of the game results in an image with the attributes of the custom resolution..not the upscaled monitor resolution. It does not attempt to process the image at all like FSR or DLSS, etc.
The fake BS you are propagating is not going to fool anyone. Jog on if you got nothing of worth to contribute.

A lot of people complained AMD had no DLSS, now that they have people complain they have it.
Can you see why people get so cynical?

This, open starboards is preferable to proprietary lock in every time.
I don't get why people white knight eveything Nvidia do in trying to lock you into their hardware and try their hardest to crap on everything AMD do to make it available to everyone, its like a deep seated hate of AMD for constantly stealing their exclusive Nvidia features and giving it away.
I agree free to use open standards are preferable. I also beleive AMD is a better company overall. The problem is that the proprietary crap that Nvidia pulls is simply better.
- I was happy to keep the FPS provided by my 1080Ti and so when I upgraded it was simply for RT. Ampere's RT performance is up to 100% more than RDNA2.
- I've been looking for a decent Freesync ultra wide monitor for my 3080, yet everything I look at mentions flicker at low frame rates.
- I am very happy to see AMD launch FSR. It looks great for what it is, but again DLSS provides better image quality and for good reason.
So am I a fanboy white knighting Nvidia, while crapping on AMD, or just a consumer buying the best products at the time?

They said 480 cards are supported with FSR too.

Amd wont optimise fsr for nvidia cards like the 1000 series, nvidia has to do it they said. So if nvidia doesnt join in to help, they wont get good results probably.

From WCCFtech -
AMD need to be careful with that. Nvidia are likey to put a FX at the end and add some proprietary code to improve it.
They might have something comparable to DLSS 1.0, but it is doubtful they have something that can compete with DLSS. We have to wait and see.
But who exactly is complaining that AMD are pushing FSR?
You have to understand, people are cyncial when Nvidia's DLSS 1.0 was heavily mocked with all kinds of claims about about image upscaling can never be as good as native and you can't create information out of thin air with jokes about CSI style magnification - now those very same people are happily claiming that AMD can do this magic and that image upscaling is fantastic. All the while, ignoring that AMD's current stated solution does not have access to the additional temproal information that provably allows DLSS 2.0 to match or exceed native resolution (with some caveats ).
It would help if the people claiming AMD's FSR is going to be so fantastic first apologize and retract their statements about the impossibility of ML based image reconstruction.
Since DLSS 2 is plug n play for most game developers now, any top game title that is looking to support FSR will likely add DLSS, especially with nvidia's developer relations.
I was thinking of the older GTX cards. Perhaps Nvidia could use some of the DLSS data to enhance FSR within the GTX range.
Just to point out, Nvidia's RTX is not proprietary. Everything RTX related form a gaming perspective uses DX12 or vulkan APIs. Nvidia worked directly with Khronos to define the open standard ray tracing API calls . AMD cards can freely run all the RTX games, AMD just have to provide the driver support. The problem is, the performance isn't there.
The thing is, if FSR sticks to spatial only data then technologies like TSR in UE5 will be far superior.
You also get diminishing returns on older hardware. All of these techniques work best on highly graphical complex modern games with ray tracing and all the bells and whistles which are hard to pump out at 4K On older hardware the overhead of FSR may become more significant and other bottlenecks in the game that don;t scale with resolution (anything geometry related), start to dominate.

TBH, it is possible that FSR is using some form of ML, and they have some patents, but overall their messaging has been mixed and if their is a CNN at play the model complexity is going to be very low to reduce the overhead.
From AMDs released result on the 1060 in quality mode, it doesn't actually look like ML is being used at all, the blurring looks like standard spatial upscalers with sharpening on top. DLSS 1 would create details in most places but failed in cases where the base data was insufficient (e..g re-creating text where no visible text is present in the low res input). AMD's screen shots show a general lack of detail full stop,not just edge cases failing.
And the real trick that makes everything work so well in DLSS 2, and often better than native is the temporal accumulation of additional data combined with state of the art convolutional image reconstruction that requires significant processing resources.
