On the green side, around 200 games and apps support DLSS so far.  The adoption of DLSS increased significantly with the introduction of plugins in major game engines. Currently, …

As of yesterday, AMD's FidelityFX Super Resolution technology is one year old, and developers are now shifting to bring support for FSR 2.0 which is already heading to a good number of titles. Now, it is even easier to implement FSR 2.0 and poke around the technology, as AMD has …
