3DMark has just added support for the newest AMD FSR 2 feature test that lets you compare GPU performance and visuals side-by-side. The company already had the DLSS 3 feature set released in its benchmark suite.

UL Benchmark's 3DMark Gets AMD FSR 2 Feature Test Featuring FiedlityFX Super Resolution 2.2
Press Release: Today, March 30th, 2023, we’re thrilled to release a new feature test for the AMD FidelityFX Super Resolution (FSR) upscaling technology. The new 3DMark AMD FSR feature test using FSR 2.2 is now available in 3DMark Advanced and Professional Editions.

3DMark AMD FSR feature test

3DMark feature tests are specialized for specific technologies. The AMD FSR feature test helps you compare the performance and image quality of AMD FSR 2 technology with a traditional rendering approach using Temporal Anti-Aliasing (TAA).

The feature test also includes the 3DMark frame inspector tool, letting you compare image quality with an interactive side-by-side comparison of FSR and native-resolution rendering. See an example comparison below of the AMD FSR feature test using traditional rendering and TAA, and the same frame using AMD FSR technology.

Comparing FSR performance and visual fidelity with the AMD FSR feature test

The test renders a scene from Speed Way twice to show the effect AMD’s FSR 2 technology has on performance and image quality. To make the 3DMark FSR feature test compatible with all FSR 2-supported graphics cards, DirectX 12 Ultimate features such as DirectX Raytracing are disabled.

The first run measures baseline performance by rendering the scene with TAA at the desired output resolution. The second run renders the scene at a lower resolution, then uses the selected FSR quality mode to upscale frames to the desired output resolution.

Use the frame inspector tool for close-up comparisons

The 3DMark frame inspector tool provides an easy way to compare the image quality of each FSR 2 Quality Mode with native-resolution rendering. It generates a series of frames displayed side-by-side for comparison. There are controls to pan around and zoom in up to 32× for a close inspection of the two techniques’ differences.
