The automatic super resolution, or Auto SR, is different than DLSS or FSR, but it will be restricted to the Qualcomm Snapdragon-based Copilot+ PCs.
Microsoft is getting its own AI upscaling technology baked straight into Windows 11 that will appear on the latest Copilot+ PCs. It’s called Automatic Super Resolution, or Auto SR, and it should work on any game you’re playing on PC. While there’s still a smorgasbord of potential pitfalls, it promises gamers they can hit higher framerates on less-capable PCs, all without needing any of the latest Nvidia or AMD discrete GPUs.
How Does Auto SR Work? Games normally need to work directly with Nvidia or AMD to enable DLSS or FSR in their games. Microsoft is promising its AI upscaler will boost resolutions and framerates on any game you play with your new Copilot+ PC. While DLSS software uses “jitter and MIP bias” to add finer details to upscaled graphics, Auto SR instead “relies on larger models and the NPU,” according to Microsoft.
