With AMD FSR 3.1 upscaler support, developers can enhance gaming visuals and performance with Microsoft's DirectSR technology.
Microsoft has leveled up its upscaling game with the introduction of AMD FX 3.1 support. The company has been improving its universal SR API for developers for several months now and with the latest addition, the DirectSR Preview is now more capable than ever.
While still in its early stage, the DirectSR technology can offer support for upscaling techniques from AMD, Intel, and NVIDIA.
