Overview

  • FSR Redstone debuts as a four-part package: Upscaling 4.0.3, Frame Generation 4.0, Ray Regeneration 1.0 and a Radiance Caching preview.
  • Official support requires Radeon RX 9000–series GPUs, with older hardware falling back to FSR 3.x paths rather than the new ML features.
  • Adrenalin 25.12.1 drivers enable Redstone on RDNA 4, with toggles in AMD Software and per-title activation for games already supporting FSR 3.1 or FSR 4.
  • Initial game uptake is limited, with Ray Regeneration available in Call of Duty: Black Ops 7, while AMD projects roughly 200 upscaling titles by year-end and about 40 with frame generation.
  • AMD cites multi‑fold FPS gains in internal tests, though early reviews flag per‑game variability, added latency tradeoffs and the absence of Nvidia‑style multi‑frame generation.
