AFMF 2 Enhances Gaming with Reduced Latency

AMD Debuts Exclusive First-Look into AMD Fluid Motion Frames 2 (AFMF 2)Games like Cyberpunk 2077 Showing Enhanced Performance on Ultra Ray Tracing

Yesterday, AMD debuted an early first-look into the next iteration of its frame generation technology, AMD Fluid Motion Frames (AFMF) 2. This new version promises significant improvements, including up to 28% lower latency and various modes tailored for specific resolutions to accommodate your game rig. AFMF 2 incorporates several new optimizations and tunable settings for frame generation to boost frame rates and enhance gameplay smoothness.

According to AMD, AFMF 2 uses AI algorithms, which enhance image quality while reducing latency and improving performance. These upgrades have been well-received by a select group of gamers, based on a poll that AMD said it conducted. "We polled gamers and AFMF received an average rating of 9.3/10 for image quality and smoothness," the company stated in its announcement.

"All this adds up to a substantial improvement over AFMF 1," AMD said, "and because we couldn’t wait to get this upgrade into gamer’s hands, we are releasing it as a technical preview so your feedback can help make AFMF 2 even better."

AMD said it also expanded the compatibility and functionality of AFMF 2. The frame generation tech now supports borderless fullscreen modes when used with AMD Radeon RX 7000 and Radeon 700M series graphics cards. Additionally, AFMF 2 works with games that use Vulkan and OpenGL, which can further enhance animation smoothness. Moreover, AMD enabled interoperability with AMD Radeon Chill, a feature that allows users to define a driver-controlled FPS cap.
