Here's a 14-odd minute video that basically says "Hardware Unboxed got it right". In this follow-up coverage, we take a look at the undoubted quality improvements of FSR Redstone ML frame generation over the legacy FSR 3.1 "analytical" version, before looking at the reason we don't recommend using it: the delivery of frames is so uneven, it can actually look less smooth than running with frame-gen off.
