After months of waiting, Cyberpunk 2077 players now have access to AMD FidelityFX Super Resolution 3 featuring frame generation. Patch 2.13 adds FSR 3 to the game and incorporates support for Intel XeSS 1.3 — Intel's own AI-based upscaling solution. The patch has also improved DLSS functionality, allowing RTX gamers to enable DLAA and Ray Reconstruction simultaneously, along with more game-focused stability and visual fixes.
FSR 3 is a significant upgrade from the game's existing FSR 2.1 implementation — incorporating frame generation into the technology's performance-enhancing tools. Frame generation boosts performance by creating a new frame based on information from two different frames in the 3D rendering pipeline. However, the technology isn't without its caveats. Input lag is worse with frame generation, making the game feel like it is operating at a much lower frame rate. For instance, if frame generation boosts performance to 60 frames per second, the penalty to input lag can make the game feel like a 30 FPS experience.
