AMD says FSR 4.1 for RDNA 3.5 must meet quality targets first
AMD has again commented on FSR 4.1 support for RDNA 3.5 integrated graphics, but the company is still not confirming whether Radeon 800M graphics will receive the feature.
Yesterday, Hardwareluxx reported that it had discussed the subject with AMD Vice President David McAfee. According to the report, AMD is not currently ready to confirm FSR 4.1 support for RDNA 3.5. The answer reportedly leaned toward no , although AMD had not made a final public announcement.
AMD later responded through Frank Azor, the company’s Chief Architect of Gaming Solutions and Gaming Marketing. Azor said no such decision had been made and that AMD was not ready to discuss potential future product plans. This wording was odd because RDNA 3.5 is not a future product. AMD introduced Ryzen AI 300 processors with RDNA 3.5 graphics in 2024, and those chips are already used in laptops and handheld PCs.
That surprised me too, so I asked about it, because the many PC handhelds in particular would benefit from it. Technical aspects were then explained, such as the lower computing power of the integrated solutions and the memory bandwidth, which has implications for FSR 4.1.

Huynh says quality must be met first
Tom’s Guide has now reached out to AMD Senior Vice President and General Manager of Computing and Graphics Jack Huynh. The answer does not change the situation much. Huynh said AMD wants to make sure the experience and quality are right before bringing FSR 4 to more products.
When asked whether this means FSR 4.1 is coming to RDNA 3.5, Huynh answered: “I did not say it’s coming.” He added that AMD has a “high-quality bar” and that the company wants the gaming experience to remain uncompromised.
We want to make sure the experience and the quality is right, and so having a sufficient amount of compute within that product, whether it’s a GPU or an APU or whatever, to ensure that you know the performance benefit.

This means AMD has now issued two comments after the Hardwareluxx report, but neither confirms support for Radeon 800M, Radeon 8060S, Radeon 8050S or other RDNA 3.5 integrated graphics. The company has only confirmed FSR Upscaling 4.1 for Radeon RX 7000 series graphics cards in July, with Radeon RX 6000 support planned for early 2027.
AMD RDNA 3.5 is everywhere
Ryzen Z2 Extreme, Ryzen AI 300 and Ryzen AI Max systems all rely on integrated RDNA3.5 graphics, while Intel is now promoting Arc G3 handheld chips with XeSS Super Resolution and XeSS Multi-Frame Generation.
What gamers should do now? Make your voice heard, expect AMD to support its new products with the latest technology, even if it means making sacrifices, like releasing a special version of existing technology. AMD is not giving gamers the answers they want, hiding behind no comments on future products plans, yet they have no problem discussing future EPYC or Instinct products years in advance.
