YouTuber ETA Prime has demonstrated the impressive performance of the Steam Deck with AMD FSR 3.1 and frame generation. In Spider-Man Remastered, the device was able to achieve a frame rate of 75 FPS at 720p resolution with medium settings, a significant jump from the previous 45 FPS.

Ghost of Tsushima, a game known for its demanding system requirements, was also able to run at over 70 FPS with medium settings at 800p resolution. This is a remarkable achievement, considering the game’s complexity.

However, not all games saw significant improvements. Horizon Forbidden West, a game that is not officially supported on the Steam Deck, still struggled to achieve a smooth frame rate even with AMD FSR 3.1 and frame generation. Despite this, the device was able to run the game at a slightly better frame rate with the GPU clock locked at 1600 MHz.

Overall, AMD FSR 3.1 and frame generation are a game-changer for gaming handhelds like the Steam Deck. While the feature is currently limited to a handful of games, it is hoped that more titles will see support soon.
