AMD Fluid Motion Frames (AFMF) technology recently debuted. This is supposed to be some kind of competition for Frame Generation in NVIDIA cards. Initially, it was limited only to models from the Radeon RX 7000 series, but it now also works on older Red cards.

At this point you may be wondering what Fluid Motion Frames are? This is a technique that generates additional frames. In theory, it can do this in any DirectX 11 or 12 game. But there is also frame generation in FSR 3. What’s the difference? FMF can run without activating FSR 3 and does not require special implementation in the game itself, at least on paper.
In practice, Fluid Motion Frames is supported by over a dozen games. The technique is activated from the level of drivers, specifically the AMD Software Adrenaline program. Initially, it was limited only to Radeon RX 7000 series graphics cards, but outcry from gamers led to the feature being introduced on RX 6000 models.
Both frame generation techniques – FSR 3 and FMF – can be enabled simultaneously in selected games (FSR 3 only supports two titles for now). However, first tests show that it is better not to do this. Not only does the delay increase significantly, but the generated image has many shortcomings. We can only hope that AMD will improve both solutions in the future.
