Will FSR 3 frame generation work at all on Linux? (lemmy.world)

AMD announced FSR 3 will allow for fluid motion frame generation in-game on almost any GPU in any DirectX12 game, doubling or even tripling your FPS.

Would this work on Linux? Considering DirectX to Vulkan translation and our lack of Radeon software. Obviously I expect when FSR 3 releases it'll be a little while until people get it working on Linux if it is possible to get it to work.

I'm quite excited for FSR 3, not that I don't have a good GPU (I have a 6800XT) but I'm just excited to try real-time frame generation without spending a small fortune on a sub-par GPU from a sub-par company. Should I, and probably many other Linux gamers, look forward to FSR 3?

I certainly hope so, it being one of the things that would actually improve the viability of Linux as a viable platform for gaming big time.

But seeing how we are just gonna see freesync support with kernel 6.5, I think definitely will take a long time.

Eh? Pretty sure freesync was already a thing before kernel 6.5.

Well Freesync is probably a bit more complicated to implement than FSR 3 considering the scope, Freesync works in-games and in the desktop so I imagine the display server and compositor need to support it. To me FSR 3 seems nothing more than a driver update and a new version of wine / proton.

How's that different than VRR or TearFree which we already have?

I'm confused by this as well.

Kernel 6.5 is gonna have freesync? Pog

FreeSync seems to work fine for me since switching to an AMD GPU. Does it not work for you?
