AMD Maintains Silence on INT8 FSR 4 Support for Older RDNA GPUs

AMD Radeon graphics cards representing uncertainty around INT8 FSR 4 support for older RDNA GPUs

AMD continues to withhold any official announcement on bringing INT8 FSR 4 to RDNA 3 or older Radeon GPUs, including the RX 7000 lineup. The company has repeatedly stated that it has no updates to share, leaving users without clarity on future support.

At present, FSR 4 is limited to RDNA 4-based Radeon RX 9000 series GPUs. According to AMD, the technology depends on advanced AI hardware features that only exist in RDNA 4, making backward compatibility a complex challenge.

Current AMD Position

  • No confirmed plans for INT8 FSR 4 on RDNA 3 or earlier GPUs
  • No public response to leaked or unofficial implementations
  • No timeline or commitment for expanded support

Despite the silence, leaked and unreleased FSR SDK files suggest that an INT8 version of FSR 4 can technically function on RDNA 3 hardware. Enthusiasts have already demonstrated this by enabling the feature on unsupported GPUs, though without any official backing.

AMD representatives have acknowledged that adapting FSR 4 to older architectures is technically difficult. However, they have stopped short of confirming whether these challenges rule out future updates entirely.

FSR 4 Support Overview

GPU Architecture Official FSR 4 Support INT8 Variant Status
RDNA 4 Yes Official
RDNA 3 No Unofficial leaks
Older RDNA No Experimental only

For now, AMD maintains its silence, keeping INT8 FSR 4 firmly positioned as a next-generation feature tied to newer hardware.
