AMD is putting an end to one of the most visible frustrations around FSR 4. Until now reserved for Radeon RX 9000 graphics cards with the RDNA 4 architecture, FSR 4.1 will begin to extend to previous generations, first on RDNA 3 in July 2026, then on RDNA 2 in early 2027.
Finally the FSR 4.1 for the RX 7000 and RX 6000
Since the launch of FSR 4 in January 2025, owners of Radeon RX 7000 and RX 6000 graphics cards remained stuck on FSR 3 while AMD reserved its new generation of upscaling competing with Nvidia’s DLSS for its most recent GPUs.
The timetable chosen, however, shows that AMD is moving forward in stages. The first graphics cards served will be the Radeon RX 7000 with FSR 4.1 which will arrive in July 2026 with more than 300 games supported at launch. The Radeon RX 6000 will have to wait until the beginning of 2027.
The interest of this port does not only lie in the number of GPUs concerned. FSR 4 marks a break with previous versions by relying on machine learning for upscaling in a logic that brings AMD closer to the approaches already used by Nvidia with its DLSS.
For players equipped with RDNA 3 and later RDNA 2, the main issue will therefore be image quality. AMD promises sharper visuals and better perceived smoothness, which will allow these older graphics cards to benefit from a much more significant improvement than just a minor update.
Jack Huynh, head of the IT and graphics division at AMD, presents this extension as an ecosystem issue, indicating that AMD runs more than a billion gaming devices worldwide.
As a lifelong gamer, I spend a lot of time thinking about how to push gaming experiences forward across CPUs, GPUs, software, and games.
My team and I have been working hard to evolve @AMD FSR 4 and bring it to more cards.
