Now, gamers are taking every chance they can to ask AMD to add FSR 4 support to its legacy GPUs. Case-in-point is the company’s latest announcement video for its Ryzen 9 9950X3D2 CPU. VideoCardz.com looked through the comments of this video, and found that nearly one-third of them requested AMD to bring FSR 4 support to RDNA 3 and RDNA 2 GPUs.

AMD’s reluctance to add FSR 4 support to older GPUs makes sense. The company is more focused on its modern offerings, as well as the ongoing AI boom. This could be preventing it from dedicating time to aging GPU architectures that came out four to six years ago. However, AMD has a reputation for offering long-term support for its products, and refusing to continue support of older products could harm the company’s reputation with consumers.
