Quoting: Juergi_HodiI tried it yesterday, but didnt get it to work on Steam Deck.

How is the full command to activate fsr4 for games?
this won't work on Steam Deck as you need the hacked DLL that Optiscaler does not ship. Look into this plugin here: https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2025/09/steam-deck-plugin-adds-amd-fsr4-support-to-improve-visuals/

Quoting: JesTechUnbelievable the timelines of these guys. I don't understand why the 7000 series is getting it sooner rather than a simultaneous release either. I understood the day 1 release for the 9000 series having it exclusively due to the older models lacking hardware, but what's the excuse here?
RDNA2 lacks most of the hardware to run FSR4 in a performant way. IF you look at how the leaked FSR4 INT8 DLL runs, there is quite a bit of optimization needed here. They are releasing it for RDNA3 sooner because RDNA3 actually has some AI accelerators that 2 lacks, so it's easier to get a ML powered upscaling to work performantly on this architecture.

wow, this is really really cool. and totally unexpected too. This means we no longer have to rely on hacks to enable the best FSR on older cards

LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight, Forza Horizon 6 and Subnautica 2 get Steam Deck Verified

I've seen how the leaked build of Forza Horizon 6 runs on the Deck and it doesn't even manage to hold 30 while being extremely CPU bound. That is not Verified Material.

so much time and effort went into distro packages that could've been used to make the flatpak better😫
