AMD accidentally leaks FSR 4 source code, teasing possible support for older Radeon GPUs
Cutting corners: AMD's FSR 4 upscaling is far more competitive with Nvidia's DLSS when compared to previous iterations, but it is not open source and only supports the company's latest graphics cards. A recent GitHub misfire has leaked plans to address those shortcomings and expand the library of FSR 4 compatible games.

Nvidia DLSS 4 transformer model exits beta, set to bring improved graphics to more games
Even without RTX 50 series GPUs, DLSS 4 improves significantly upon DLSS 3
Why it matters: Most people think of multi-frame generation when they hear about Nvidia DLSS 4, but the transformer model upgrade in DLSS Super Resolution might be the update's most consequential upgrade. Many games can already benefit from the feature, and it's likely to become the standard across upcoming releases.
