AFMF: Was I Wrong?!?
3,346AMD Fluid Motion Frames (AFMF) just released in their latest drivers. In this review I take a look at the full release version and see if it has improved since the preview drivers I tested. I also see how it stacks up against a fully implementation of AMD's FSR 3 Frame Generation.
