ASUS ROG Ally further accelerates FPS on handheld game consoles with AMD Fluid Motion Frames technology

ASUS’ ROG Ally handheld features AMD’s Fluid Motion Frames (AFMF) technology for superior performance with Ryzen Z1 APU.

The combination of ASUS’ ROG Ally handheld and AMD’s Fluid Motion Frames technology is truly impressive, resulting in increased FPS in games.

Handheld devices don’t have native drivers like desktop PCs from AMD or NVIDIA, which has slowed support for new features like AMD Fluid Motion Frames.

However, it looks like ASUS has decided to enhance the experience with ROG Ally handhelds equipped with Fluid Motion Frames through a new driver update.

AMD’s AFMF implementation will occur through ASUS’ iGPU and ACSE driver updates:

We’re excited to announce that AMD Fluid Motion Frames (AFMF) are now available on ROG Ally! Tomorrow’s (April 25th) iGPU driver and ACSE updates will include everything you need to use this new feature. Simply open your AMD software and toggle on AMD Fluid Motion Frames in Gaming > Graphics. AFMF is not yet available in Command Center, but we are working on further integration.
ACSE 1.4.13

Improved game library display speed.
Added information to the real-time monitor overlay when using AFMF.
Resolved a sporadic issue where AMD graphics card driver updates could time out in Update Center.
Expanded keymap functionality to support assigning keys as trigger keys (requires MCU v317 or later). For example, you can assign the M1 button as the left trigger.

iGPU driver V31.0.24027.1012

Bug Fix: Fixed an issue where certain textures could become invisible while playing Final Fantasy X HD Remaster.
Added support for AMD Fluid Motion Frames (AFMF). (AMD Reference: AMD Fluid Motion Frames)

Asus Hotplug Controller 3.0.0

Improved stability of Asus Hotplug Controller.

In a nutshell, AMD’s Fluid Motion Frames (AFMF) is a technology that squeezes out as many frames per second as possible by implementing frame interpolation or frame generation on the driver side.

With AMD Fluid Motion Frames, you can enjoy increased FPS in various games based on DX12 and DX11 API.

AFMF is a welcome feature for handhelds, as it is known to deliver an astounding 97% improvement in average performance, according to AMD.

For ASUS ROG Ally, which is relatively compact compared to desktops and laptops, AFMF is sure to take gaming to a whole new level.

ASUS’ ROG Ally is the first handheld to receive support for Fluid Motion Frames, and we hope to see support for other devices as well.

Explanation:

AFMF implemented in ROG Ally

Although it seems a bit slow, it seems that frame generation has been implemented in ROG Ally.

This means that it has the honor of being the world’s first handheld game machine to implement frame generation.

This is big.

Still, it is far behind NVIDIA.

NVIDIA is also said to be implementing DLSS3 on the Switch 2, but since it is not a platform game, they cannot choose the timing, and are lagging behind AMD.

AFMF is not an AI-based technology, so when the Switch 2 comes out, it will be the world’s first handheld device to generate frames using AI.

On the other hand, although there are machines equipped with Intel’s Core Ultra, it is difficult to say that it is widely used.

If you look at the details such as driver quality and frame generation, I think AMD products are more advanced in some respects.

Looking at the situation with the ARC A700 series, choosing an Intle-equipped machine would be a very courageous choice.

I’m curious whether NVIDIA will release a SoC equipped with it after ARM Windows, but if they do, I think many people will choose it even if it’s a little more expensive, and it might take the market by storm. not.
