Well I’ve just learned that you already had FSR 1-2 in Steam OS without adding any plugin. So I guess what I was talking about is already there but I’m just not using it😅

FSR1 is a simple frame upscaler, it's used as one of the methods for resizing the image when you render something at s lower resolution and stretch it to full screen, along with bilinear and integer. Very few games actually use it directly.

FSR 2/3/4 are temporal (time based), they need to be implemented directly by the game engine but if they do have FSR2, (like Deep Rock Galactic), it works on the deck.

FSR3/4 officially needs an RDNA 3/4 based gpu, which the deck doesn't have, but the plugin/mod converts DLSS calls in to a RDNA 2 compatible version of FSR3/4.

FSR3 without the frame generation part might also work on the deck natively, though I'm not sure if I'm misremembering.

Well thanks for all these infos.

I guess I’d need to improve my knowledge for such things.
