It's also not officially supported by Intel either, but that might be forthcoming in a driver update.

Videocardz says they couldn't get it to work with a Tiger Lake CPU, so your mileage will vary. Still, it's worth looking into if you have a supported Intel iGPU. Therefore, it might be best left to hose with Arc discrete GPUs for now.

So we'd better turn it on where the external power supply is available.'Īlong those lines, one Twitter user noted in reply to the original post (Opens in a new window) that their laptop sounded like a jet engine after enabling it. The downside is that it would consume much more GPU resources and power. This would be a great improvement in user experiment. The post (Opens in a new window) from April 2022 says, 'The video processors in new generations of Intel GPUs(Gen9+) can support AI-based super-resolution, which can significantly improve video quality for online education, video conference, and gaming scenarios. In the same Chromium bug report mentioned above, an Intel employee says it consumes a lot of power. (Image:Īlthough this is a 'free' feature, assuming you have the proper hardware, you might not want to use it. Intel VSR on versus off shows a dramatic increase in sharpness. Nvidia requires at least Chrome version 110, which is the most current-or the latest version of Edge and its newest graphics driver. You also need to run at least Chrome 109, an older version. To get it functioning, you must add a line to Chrome's 'target' line in settings: -enable-features=IntelVpSuperResolution. It also works on Arc graphics cards as well. According (Opens in a new window) to Videocardz, it's supported on iGPUs going back to Intel's 10th Gen (Skylake) and newer CPUs. News of Intel's support for this feature is unofficial however, users are reporting it works. It's already possible with some Intel GPUs, both discrete and integrated. However, Intel has beaten AMD to the punch. When Nvidia announced RTX VSR, we immediately wondered if AMD would attempt something similar. Nvidia says 90% of the video streamed today is at 1080p or lower, so this is useful technology.

For example, it can upscale a 1080p video stream to 4K, which is excellent for those with high-res panels on their desks. It can upscale low-resolution video content using the tensor cores built into Ampere and Ada Lovelace GPUs. Nvidia made waves recently by launching RTX Video Super Resolution (VSR) for Chromium browsers.
