AMD Seems to Be Testing up to 8X Multi Frame Generation

AMD may be testing its own form of multi-frame generation up to 8x, according to screenshots from the latest version of the RadeonTuner utility. It includes preliminary support for this feature, but it’s currently disabled, suggesting AMD is laying the groundwork for its implementation.

Nvidia introduced frame generation with its RTX 40 series and multi-frame generation with its RTX 50 series. Although AMD does have frame generation support, it’s only 2x for now and lacks the multi-frame gen capabilities Nvidia launched over a year and a half ago. But AMD is getting close, it seems, and may throw the doors wide open on massive frame rate boosting.

In the screenshots, the RadeonTuner software has toggle options for FSR Multi Frame Generation, along with a drop-down ratio selector up to 8X. There also seems to be a dynamic frame gen capability, with the option to target a specific frame rate. This is already something Nvidia and third-party companies like Lossless Scaling support.

Although these menus suggest AMD has already launched the feature, they appear to be placeholders for now, with the latest drivers offering no official support for multi-frame generation. It seems likely to not be far off, though, and could give AMD cards a big boost in supporting games like Cyberpunk 2077, which can really benefit from AI frames.

It also seems likely that this capability will come to games built around AMD’s FSR technology. So we could see multi-frame gen support pop up in Death Stranding 2, Crimson Desert, and Resident Evil 9, among others.

This 8x mode would give AMD an advantage over even Nvidia. While Team Green launched its multi-frame gen last year, it has only recently added dynamic support for up to 6x at a time. Intel’s XeSS multi-frame gen is limited to 4x, too.

Although 8x could increase input lag, it may give AMD a chance to win across a range of benchmarks and frame rate counts—whenever it debuts, that is.
