ASUS ROG Ally Handheld Introduces AMD’s Fluid Motion Frames Technology for Enhanced Gaming Performance

The ROG Ally handheld from ASUS features AMD’s Fluid Motion Frames (AFMF) technology for superior performance with the Ryzen Z1 APU.

The combination of ASUS’ ROG Ally handheld and AMD’s Fluid Motion Frames technology is truly impressive, resulting in increased FPS in games.

Portable devices don’t have native drivers like desktop PCs from AMD or NVIDIA, which has slowed support for new features like AMD Fluid Motion Frames.

However, it seems that ASUS has decided to improve the experience with ROG Ally handhelds equipped with Fluid Motion Frames through a new driver update.

AMD’s AFMF implementation will come via ASUS iGPU and ACSE driver updates:

We’re excited to announce that AMD Fluid Motion Frames (AFMF) are now available on ROG Ally! Tomorrow’s (April 25) iGPU driver and ACSE updates will include everything you need to use this new feature. Simply open AMD software and enable AMD Fluid Motion Frames in Games > Graphics. AFMF is not yet available in the Command Center, but we are working on further integration.

ACSE 1.4.13

  • Improved game library display speed.
  • Added information to the real-time monitor overlay when using AFMF.
  • Fixed a sporadic issue where AMD graphics driver updates could expire in the Update Center.
  • Extended key mapping functionality to support assigning keys as trigger keys (requires MCU v317 or later). For example, you can assign the M1 button as the left trigger.

MCU317

  • Improved key mapping functionality that supports assigning keys as trigger keys (requires ACSE 1.4.13 or later). For example, you can assign the M1 button as the left trigger.

iGPU Driver V31.0.24027.1012

  • Bug Fix: Fixed an issue where some textures could become invisible when playing Final Fantasy
  • Added support for AMD Fluid Motion Frames (AFMF). (AMD Reference: AMD Fluid Motion Frames)

Asus Hotplug Controller 3.0.0

  • Improved stability of the Asus Hotplug controller.

Simply put, AMD’s Fluid Motion Frames (AFMF) is a technology that squeezes out as many frames per second as possible by implementing frame interpolation or frame generation on the driver side.

With AMD Fluid Motion Frames, you can enjoy higher FPS in various games based on DX12 and DX11 API.

AFMF is a welcome feature for handhelds, as it is known to offer an astonishing 97% improvement in average performance, according to AMD.

For ASUS ROG Ally, which is relatively compact compared to desktops and laptops, AFMF will definitely bring gaming to a whole new level.

ASUS’ ROG Ally is the first handheld to receive support for Fluid Motion Frames, and we hope to see support for other devices as well.

Explanation:

AFMF implemented in ROG Ally

Although it seems a little slow, it seems that frame generation has been implemented in ROG Ally.

This means it has the honor of being the world’s first portable gaming machine to implement frame generation.

This is big.

However, it is far behind NVIDIA.

NVIDIA is also rumored to be implementing DLSS3 on the Switch 2, but since it’s not a platform game, they can’t pick the timing and are lagging behind AMD.

AFMF is not an AI-based technology, so when the Switch 2 comes out, it will be the first handheld device in the world to generate frames using AI.

On the other hand, although there are machines equipped with Intel’s Core Ultra, it is difficult to say that it is widely used.

If you look at details like driver quality and frame generation, I think AMD products are more advanced in some aspects.

Looking at the situation of the ARC A700 series, choosing an Intle-equipped machine would be a very bold choice.

I’m curious if NVIDIA will release an SoC after ARM Windows, but if they do, I think a lot of people will choose it even if it’s a little more expensive, and it may not take the market by storm.
