I don't see what this could be tbh. Looks like either an engine or a game, but neither screen is very impressive. It is a work in progress though.

Well AMD will be revealing it in the next few weeks so at least we don't have to wait too long to find out what this is.

SignifiedSix914066d ago

Maybe its a new technology they're working on for their next gen cards. Who knows?

sjaakiejj4066d ago

AMD doesn't develop games or engines. This is likely a reference to a new product they're looking to bring to the market, likely a hardware accelerated type of lighting solution.

zebramocha4066d ago

@sjaak didn't they do that with the Leo demo,combining the best feature of forward and deferred rendering.

ATi_Elite4065d ago

I have no clue!

maybe this is just a lot of worthless hype to help in the build up of AMD announcing GDDR6.

that's what I'm really interested in from AMD GDDR6 which is due 2014!

shutUpAndTakeMyMoney4065d ago (Edited 4065d ago )

Tech demo most likely. pc bench marks me.. Games are way more fun.

Looks like some sort of benchmark or tech demo

Yukicore4066d ago

If this would be a game, I don't think that AMD would be the one's teasing this.

Perhaps a game engine from AMD?

mrkeith4066d ago

They are showing off the power of the next mobile graphics lol. (Wouldn't that be crazy if i was right). All i know is that the screenshots look like crap. Playing in 1080p definately wouldn't make that look any better

Statix4065d ago

It's either a tech demo of what mobile hardware can do with AMD processors, or it's a tech demo of a new real-time global illumination solution.

mrkeith4064d ago (Edited 4064d ago )

Yeah its definitely some Mobile graphic device. It looks like a PSP game

Kaiou4066d ago (Edited 4066d ago )

The tomb raider hair tech and now this , i see Microsoft and Sony's money starting to roll in. good year for AMD.

Make your next GPU upgrade AMD as these latest-gen Radeon cards receive a special promotion

AMD has long been the best value option if you're looking for a new GPU. Now even their latest Radeon RX 7000 series is getting cheaper.

Father__Merrin1d 12h ago

Best for the money is the Arc cards

just_looken1d 10h ago

In the past yes but last gen amd has gotten cheaper and there new cards are on the horizon making 6k even cheaper.

The arc cards are no longer made by intel but asus/asrock has some the next line battlemage is coming out prices tbd.

Do to the longer software development its always best to go amd over intel if its not to much more money even though intel is a strong gpu i own 2/4 card versions.

AMD FSR 3.1 Announced at GDC 2024, FSR 3 Available and Upcoming in 40 Games

Last September, we unleashed AMD FidelityFX™ Super Resolution 3 (FSR 3)1 on the gaming world, delivering massive FPS improvements in supported games.

So to put 2 and 2 together... FSR 3.1 is releasing later this year and the launch game to support it is Rachet and Clank: Rift Apart. In Sony's DevNet documentation it shows Rachet and Clank: Rift Apart as the example for PSSR. PS5 Pro also launches later this year... but there is something else coming too: AMD RDNA 4 Cards (The very same technology thats in the Pro). So, PSSR is either FSR 3.1 or its a direct collaboration with AMD for that builds on FSR 3.1. Somehow they are related. I think PSSR is FSR 3.1 with the bonus of AI... now lets see if RDNA 4 cards also include an AI block.

More details:
FSR 3.1 fixes Frame Generation
If you have a 30 series RTX card you can now use DLSS3 with FSR Frame Generation (No 40 Series required!)
Its Available on all Cards (we assume it will come to console)
Fixes Temporal stability

MrDead31d ago

I've been using a mod that allows dlss frame gen on my 3080 it works on all rtx series. It'll be good not to rely on mods for the future.

darksky31d ago

The mods avaiable are actually using FSR3 frame gen but with DLSS or FSR2 upscaling.

Babadook731d ago (Edited 31d ago )

I think that the leaks about the 5 Pro would debunk the notion that the two (FSR 3.1 and PSSR) are the same technology. PSSR is a Sony technology.

MrDead32d ago (Edited 32d ago )

I wonder how much they fixed the ghosting in dark areas as Nvidia are leaving them in the dust with image quality. Still good that they are improving in big leaps, I'll have to see when the RTX5000 series is released who I go with... at the moment the RTX5000's are sounding like monsters.

just_looken31d ago

Did you see the dell leaks were they are trying to cool cards using over 1k watts of power.

We are going to need 220 lines for next gen pcs lol

MrDead31d ago

That's crazy! Sounds like heating my house won't be a problem next winter.

porkChop31d ago

As much as I hate supporting Nvidia, AMD just doesn't even try to compete. Their whole business model is to beat Nvidia purely on price. But I'd rather pay for better performance and better features. AMD also doesn't even try to innovate. They just follow Nvidia's lead and make their own version of whatever Nvidia is doing. But they're always 1 or 2 generations behind when it comes to those software/driver innovations, so Nvidia is always miles ahead in quality and performance.

MrDead31d ago

I do a lot of work on photoshop so an Intel Nvidia set up has been the got to because of performance edge, more expensive but far more stable too. Intel also have the edge over AMD processors with better load distribution on the cores, less spikes and jitters. When you're working large format you don't want lag or spikes when you're editing or drawing.

I do think AMD has improved massively though and whist I don't think they threaten Nvidia on the tech side they do make very well priced cards and processors for the power. I'm probably going with a 5080 or 5090 but AMD will get a little side look from me, which is a first in a long time... but like you said they are a generation or two behind at the moment.

Goosejuice30d ago

While I can't argue for amd gpu, they aren't bad but they aren't great either. The cpu for amd have great. I would argue the 7800x3d as one of the best cpu for gaming right now. Idk about editing so I take ur word for that but gaming amd cpu is a great option these days.

porkChop30d ago

@Goosejuice

I have a 7800X3D. It certainly is great for gaming. Though for video editing, rendering, etc, I think Intel have the advantage from what I remember. I just mean from a GPU standpoint I can't support them.
