F1 22 now has FSR 2.2 upscaling, and it's well worth turning on.

, offers a couple of key upgrades for last season's Formula One game. The most important being updated colours for George Russell's W13 wheel arches, but second to that the introduction of AMD's latest FidelityFX Super Resolution version 2.2.

With FSR 2.2 in hand, you can expect a not-insignificant uplift in performance from the game. I've been testing the upgraded upscaling feature for the past few hours, and on my all-AMD machine, the game runs around 11% faster with FSR 2.2 balanced mode compared to FSR 1.0 balanced mode with TAA and FidelityFX Sharpening.

Compare FSR 2.2 performance to running the game without any upscaling whatsoever and it's more like an 139% increase in frame rates. But surely we're all turning some upscaling technology on by now, right? Though there is something to note here. I also tested both upscalers with Performance mode activated, and both performed rather similarly. In fact, FSR 1.0 seems a little quicker on the minimum frame times than the newer version. That said, the visual quality of FSR 2.2 is improved—the resulting image is sharper and some details, such as on the driver's gloves, are preserved better.

FSR 2.2 does look rather good for what is essentially a clever approximation of a frame. Even if you're not expecting a major performance uplift with it on, it's well worth enabling for the visual quality improvements alone. Admittedly, the improvements don't show too well in compressed images like those below.
