Description of the issue: AMD Adrenalin doesn’t recognize ingame Frame Generation. In my case this leads to Freesync problems. For example when I cap my FPS to 30 and add Frame Generation I get the following:
stable 60 FPS in devmode FPS Display
stable 30 FPS in Adrenalin Metrik Overlay
90 hz Screen refresh rate on my TCL TV (LFC triples the 30 FPS)
The result is stuttering
Did you experience this issue before you joined the Beta?
No, as FG was not available for AMD
[PC Only] Did you remove all your community mods/add-ons? If yes, are you still experiencing the issue?
Yes
FREQUENCY OF ISSUE
How often does this occur for you (Example: Just once, every time on sim load, intermittently)?
Every time
REPRODUCTION STEPS
Please list clear steps you took in order to help our test team reproduce the same issue:
Enable FSR Frame Generation ingame
Display Adrenalin Metrik overlay
[PC Only] Many issues may be due to an outdated graphics card. Please state your Graphics Card Driver Manufacturer (NVIDIA, Intel, AMD) and Version:

Btw - after you turn on the fps window you can turn off Dev Mode, save & exit and the fps window will remain onscreen.
The fps window along with an AMD based gpu, the fps counter will be accurate with no frame gen & FSR3 frame gen. If you turn on AFMF2.1 frame gen in the Adrenalin driver, the sims fps window will not see those additional frames generated.
So as an example, if you’re generating 20 real frames with no frame gen:
fps window = 20fps
Adrenalin overlay = 20fps
If you’re generating 20 real frames with fsr3 frame gen turned on in the sim:
fps window = 40fps
Adrenalin overlay = 40fps
If you’re generating 20 real frames with fsr3 turned on in the sim and AFMF2.1 turned on in the Adrenalin driver:
fps window = 40fps
Adrenalin overlay = 60fps
With the sim generating real frames along with 2 additional forms of frame generation the result is essentially 3x frame gen!
Thanks for the Input. I once tried AFMF but was nAot happy with the result so I only want to use ingame FG.
I tried again today and I Had Problems even without dev Mod enabled again. Sometimes it shows right FPS and Sometimes it doesn’t. It’s really strange. VRR/Freesync does weird things. Even in completely stable ingame framerates it fluctuates a lot when FG is enabled. No issues without FG.
Do you have VRR turned on in Windows? WIN 11 settings->Monitor->Adapter (not in front of my PC but I believe this is correct).
Do not use the adaptive VRR in WIN 11 settings->Monitor->Advanced. This is a windows setting meant to save power and will artificially drop your refresh rate way down when little to no activity is going on with your monitor.
VRR in Windows is Off. I reinstalled drivers about 10 Times and tried everything. I don’t get FSR3 FG and Freesync to work without brightness flickering. Both on their own run great but not together…
You need VRR for FSR3 frame gen along with freesync to avoid screen tearing. Do not use adaptive VRR as it is a gimick to save power at the cost of possible poor performance. They are 2 separate settings.
