AMD quietly introduces “Fast Motion Response” option to Fluid Motion Frames 2.1

AMD Fluid Motion Frames gets “Fast Motion Response”

AMD is definitely working on its AFMF (AMD Fluid Motion Frames) technology behind the scenes. Recently, references to AFMF3 have appeared in drivers , which many expect to arrive alongside FSR Redstone, AMD’s next-generation upscaling and frame-generation technology.

AMD Fluid Motion Frames is a driver-level frame-generation feature that can be enabled on a per-game basis. It allows users to interpolate additional frames without involvement from game developers, effectively doubling frame rates in titles that would otherwise never receive official frame-generation support. While not perfect, it has become a widely used feature, particularly in emulators and on low-power devices such as gaming handhelds.

Although details on AFMF3 remain scarce, AMD appears to have quietly introduced a new feature in a recent driver. A setting called “ Fast Motion Response ” is now included in the PyTorch on Windows Preview Edition 25.120.01.14, which was recently released. This driver currently supports only Radeon RX 7000 and RX 9000 series cards.

In the standard Adrenalin Edition 25.9.2 driver, AFMF only offers Search and Performance modes. However, the PyTorch Preview Edition 25.120.01.14 adds Fast Motion Response with two selectable modes:

  • Repeat Frame : Preserves image quality by repeating the last frame, minimizing artifacts such as ghosting or smearing.
  • Blended Frame: Blends consecutive frames to smooth motion, improving fluidity but with the risk of added blur during fast action.

Fast Motion Response directly addresses a key weakness of AFMF, handling high-motion scenes. Previously, Search Mode disabled frame generation during rapid motion to prevent visual artifacts. With this update, users can now choose between maintaining clarity or prioritizing smoothness.

AMD has not even mentioned the Fast Motion Response feature in the changelog, so perhaps it was not meant to be released just yet.
