RX 9070 and RX 9070 XT comes with the support of FidelityFX Super Resolution 4 (FSR 4) and HYPR-RX, the newest technologies of AMD. The RX 9070 XT offers 51 percent faster game experience compared to the previous generation RX 6900 XT and 26 percent faster than the NVIDIA RTX 3090.
In particular, the FSR 4 offers a more advanced image upgrade technology compared to previous versions, while significantly increases game performance with square production support. The HYPR-RX technology provides optimization at the driver level and provides up to twice the performance improvement in certain games.
The new graphics cards also have advanced beam monitoring performance of AMD. The RX 9070 XT runs a more fluent experience in games such as Cyberpunk 2077, Starfield, Final Fantasy XVI, running 66 percent better compared to RX 7900 Gre.
The RX 9070 is an ideal option for monitors with high renovation speed by providing 38 percent increase in 1440p resolution RX 7900 Gre.
With these graphics cards, AMD offers great innovations not only to players, but also to content producers. Thanks to AI -supported performance improvements, programs such as Adobe Lightroom and Davinci Resolve accelerate up to 34 percent.
In addition, the AI acceleration optimized for artificial intelligence models such as Stable Diffusion and SDXL will be able to achieve faster workflows.
The new media engine developed for publishers makes it possible to register ultra high resolution with 8K 80FPS AV1 coding support. In addition, AMD’s AI -supported noise blocking technology allows live broadcasts and content producers to get cleaner sound recording.
Radeon RX 9070 and RX 9070 XT are preparing to make an effective entry into the game world with this improved driver’s stability and wide game support.
AMD announced that Radeon RX 9070 and RX 9070 XT will be available on 6 March 2025. ASUS, Gigabyte, Asrock, Powercolor, Sapphire and XFX large brands such as, customized models will launch these graphics cards.
FSR 4 to 2.5 times more performance!
AMD introduced FSR 4, the latest version of FidelityFX Super Resolution (FSR) technology. This new technology improves game performance with artificial intelligence -supported image processing and square creation features. FSR 4, which is directly competing with NVIDIA’s DLSS 3.5 technology, works on a wide range of hardware by offering higher visual quality and square speeds than previous versions.
The FSR 4 uses artificial intelligence -based upgrade techniques makes the images in the game sharper and more detailed. AMD improved visual quality to the highest level by developing the upgrade and square estimation methods used in previous versions.
Thanks to the artificial intelligence algorithms, the frames of low resolution have a sharper and more natural appearance. It provides higher performance on old and new generation graphics cards.
In the test results shared by AMD, FSR 4 and FPS ratios increase up to 2.5 times. In the tests with Radeon RX 9000 series graphics cards, FPS values increase significantly when compared to local 4K resolution in games like Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered. In the tests performed with Radeon RX 9070 XT, games work more fluent in ultra settings.
The FSR 4 was optimized not only on Radeon graphics cards, but also on NVIDIA and Intel GPUs. Compatible with RTX 3000 and 4000 series graphics cards allows AMD to expand the user audience. FSR 4 is supported in more than 400 games. Large game companies such as Ubisoft, EA, Capcom and CD Project Red offer FSR 4 support.
FSR works integrated with FSR 4 HYPR-RX technology. HYPR-RX increases square speeds by offering performance improvement techniques at the driver level and minimizes the delay. When FSR 4 and HYPR-RX are used together, the system resources work more efficiently and FPS increases without compromising visual quality.
