AMD has released a new beta version of its Fluid Motion Frames tech, AFMF 2. According to the red team, AFMF 2 has lower latency, higher performance and features a number of fast motion optimizations.

AMD has added two new major features to AFMF 2. These are the Search Mode and the Performance Mode. So, let’s see what they do.

Search Mode controls the frame generation smoothness by improving how “fallback” works in AFMF 2. Fallback refers to when AFMF frame generation is temporarily disabled in high-motion scenes to ensure the best interpolated image quality, which can sometimes cause jitter that impacts the smoothness of the gaming experience.

The fallback of AFMF was one of my biggest gripes with this tech. According to AMD, this has been improved so it shouldn’t be as bad as it was.

AMD claims that it has made considerable improvements in frame generation by using AI-optimization to help develop an updated algorithm. So, by setting the Search Mode to High, you will be able to reduce the fallback for improved AFMF smoothness. In theory, the games shouldn’t have those huge framerate drops now.

The other major feature of AFMF 2 is the Performance Mode. This mode comes with three settings: Auto, Quality and Performance. Quality was the setting that AFMF 1 used. The new Performance setting reduces the overhead of AFMF 2 to help make high frame rate gaming experiences more achievable on a wider range of devices.

AMD also stated that it has made notable improvements in reducing the latency added by frame generation. These improvements apply across the board when using AFMF 2, no matter the settings mode, resolution, or hardware used. Compared to AFMF 1, AFMF 2 can be more responsive by around 28%.

Finally, it’s worth noting that AFMF 2 will now work with games that use the Vulkan and OpenGL APIs.
