… Now, AMD has announced that FSR 4.1 is coming to older Radeon 7000 RDNA 3 and 6000 series RDNA 2 cards too, with a phased roll-out that suggests specific architectural optimisations are being made - ideally to shore up performance which could be a bit ropey on the earlier generation cards. …
… Team Red finally announced an official July release window for Radeon 7000 back in May, though support for RDNA 3.5 is still officially doubtful . …
