Radeon Boost Tested, Is AMD's New Performance "Turbocharger" a Game Chan...
An idea for an improved Radeon Boost
They first need to add more games. There are only 8 games that supported 4 months now from the fist adrenaline 2020. They make it for 8 games and thats it?

I think it would be really great if Radeon Boost could be improved to work like this. You choose a target minimum framerate and Radeon Boost dynamically adjusts the resolution to maintain that FPS.
I don't know if this is possible but I think it would be awesome if that could be implemented.
Currently it's very simplistic I think. It seems to just cut your resolution down to whatever % you set it to, when you are moving or your mouse is moving.

Mouse based is best though, simply because then you are using the motion resolution of your display and not its static resolution which is higher. Since most display objectively can't achieve distinction between fine details due to pixel response times and ghosting, it makes sense to reduce the rendered resolution under motion so you aren't wasting processing power on pixels per frame. Instead you use that throughput to produce smaller frames but more of them.
A generic screenspace motion algorithm and variable rate shading would be best, but mouse movement is quick and dirty way to get like 80% of the result.
Would be nice to see generic support from various engine makers.
for awhile it was one of those features I avoided because it sounded dumb and terrible lol. but.... it's actually not? at least on my display, using the max quality, it literally isnt noticeable, just ends up looking like a bit of motion blur, and the framerate spike really does help the game feel responsive and in the case of a game like cyberpunk where I can dip below 60 fps at times, it actually helps smooth those dips out.
the only annoying part is when using rivatuner to display hardware stats, the rivatuner display gets the resolution scaled down with the game as well, so its constantly fuzzing the edges of the text with every moouse movement. other than that quirk though, like i said im actually impressed.
Does anyone know what this "Radeon Boost" is?

It links to https://www.amd.com/en/technologies/radeon-boost but the page returns a 404.
Also, I saw a banner advertising the Adrenalin 2020 drivers (https://i.imgur.com/GGsbFhk.png). Are they actually out yet or is this a premature announcement?
