Exclusive to the Radeon RX 9000 Series, the AMD FSR “Redstone” will launch on December 10.
AMD’s Senior Vice President and General Manager, Jack Huynh, shared a video on X teasing the forthcoming release of the company’s latest sophisticated graphics technology, called “Redstone.” The most recent teaser indicates that additional information will be disclosed on December 10. AMD’s new FRS “Redstone” platform enhances the AI and machine learning super resolution from FSR 4 and presents three major advancements: neural radiance caching, Ray Regeneration using AI and ML, and Frame Generation driven by AI and ML. Neural Radiance Caching employs a machine learning model that continuously adapts to understand light interactions in a scene, allowing it to forecast and save indirect illumination, thereby lowering the performance expenses of ray tracing.
Moreover, AMD FSR “Redstone” Ray Regeneration operates like NVIDIA DLSS 3.5 Ray Reconstruction by leveraging a neural network to recreate pixels that were difficult to accurately path-trace, particularly enhancing reflection quality when super resolution is utilized. The latest Frame Generation model, powered by AI and machine learning, represents a notable advancement from the interpolation technology AMD launched with FSR 3. This method employs machine learning combined with integrated temporal and spatial cognition to produce interleaving frames with improved precision and superior image quality. Although this approach does not reach the 2x frame-rate increase of NVIDIA’s RTX 40-series “Ada” architecture, it deliberately emphasizes better visual quality.
We tried Black Ops 7, the first game featuring AMD’s FSR Redstone, which uses RSR Ray Regeneration, one of the four Redstone components, to improve the game’s ray generating sequences. Additionally, the banner emphasizes that these innovations are exclusive to the RDNA 4-based Radeon RX 9000 series. It makes reasonable that AMD would restrict Redstone technology to the Radeon RX 9000 series since RDNA 4, the company’s most recent GPU architecture, was created especially for these features. Although AMD has not yet acknowledged it, owners of RDNA 3 may ultimately be able to access certain functionalities for their GPUs. In a few weeks, we anticipate further information from AMD.
