We live in rapidly changing times for PC graphics. More and more pixels are being generated by AI or “neural” rendering techniques. The DLSS, FSR, and XeSS upscalers let us boost frame rates at will in exchange for small dings to image quality. Frame generation techniques, especially Nvidia’s multi-frame generation tech on its Blackwell cards , let us boost them even higher still with the click of an in-game toggle.

When implemented well, we think MFG can be
