Short answer: yes — in most cases that’s the best setup, but with very specific settings when you use FreeSync/VRR + AMD FSR Frame Generation (AFMF / FSR 3 FG).

Here’s the clean, no-nonsense setup and why it works 👇

#### ✅ Recommended setup (AMD GPU + FreeSync/VRR + Frame Generation)[[edit](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?title=Openai/69447db3-806c-8006-b23b-7b480ecc717e&veaction=edit&section=4 "Edit section: ✅ Recommended setup (AMD GPU + FreeSync/VRR + Frame Generation)") | [edit source](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?title=Openai/69447db3-806c-8006-b23b-7b480ecc717e&action=edit&section=4 "Edit section's source code: ✅ Recommended setup (AMD GPU + FreeSync/VRR + Frame Generation)")]

##### 1. Enable FreeSync / VRR[[edit](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?title=Openai/69447db3-806c-8006-b23b-7b480ecc717e&veaction=edit&section=5 "Edit section: 1. Enable FreeSync / VRR") | [edit source](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?title=Openai/69447db3-806c-8006-b23b-7b480ecc717e&action=edit&section=5 "Edit section's source code: 1. Enable FreeSync / VRR")]

*   In AMD Adrenalin → Display → FreeSync: ON
*   In your monitor OSD → FreeSync / Adaptive Sync: ON

This is mandatory. Frame generation without VRR feels worse.

##### 2. VSync: ON (but only at the driver level)[[edit](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?title=Openai/69447db3-806c-8006-b23b-7b480ecc717e&veaction=edit&section=6 "Edit section: 2. VSync: ON (but only at the driver level)") | [edit source](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?title=Openai/69447db3-806c-8006-b23b-7b480ecc717e&action=edit&section=6 "Edit section's source code: 2. VSync: ON (but only at the driver level)")]

*   AMD Adrenalin → Graphics → Wait for Vertical Refresh → ON
*   In-game VSync → OFF

👉 This prevents tearing only when you exceed the VRR range, without adding constant input lag like traditional in-game VSync.

##### 3. FPS limit slightly below refresh rate (VERY important)[[edit](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?title=Openai/69447db3-806c-8006-b23b-7b480ecc717e&veaction=edit&section=7 "Edit section: 3. FPS limit slightly below refresh rate (VERY important)") | [edit source](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?title=Openai/69447db3-806c-8006-b23b-7b480ecc717e&action=edit&section=7 "Edit section's source code: 3. FPS limit slightly below refresh rate (VERY important)")]

Limit FPS to ~3–5 FPS below your monitor’s max refresh:

| Monitor | FPS cap | | ------- | ------- | | 144 Hz | 140–141 | | 165 Hz | 160–162 | | 240 Hz | 235–237 |

You can do this via:

*   AMD Adrenalin → FRTC
*   RTSS
*   In-game limiter (if it’s stable)

⚠️ Do not rely on Frame Generation alone to cap FPS — it doesn’t behave like a real limiter.

#### 🎮 Why this combo works best with Frame Generation[[edit](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?title=Openai/69447db3-806c-8006-b23b-7b480ecc717e&veaction=edit&section=8 "Edit section: 🎮 Why this combo works best with Frame Generation") | [edit source](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?title=Openai/69447db3-806c-8006-b23b-7b480ecc717e&action=edit&section=8 "Edit section's source code: 🎮 Why this combo works best with Frame Generation")]

##### Without FPS cap:[[edit](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?title=Openai/69447db3-806c-8006-b23b-7b480ecc717e&veaction=edit&section=9 "Edit section: Without FPS cap:") | [edit source](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?title=Openai/69447db3-806c-8006-b23b-7b480ecc717e&action=edit&section=9 "Edit section's source code: Without FPS cap:")]

*   You hit refresh ceiling
*   VSync engages hard
*   Input latency spikes
*   FG frames feel uneven

##### With FPS cap below refresh:[[edit](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?title=Openai/69447db3-806c-8006-b23b-7b480ecc717e&veaction=edit&section=10 "Edit section: With FPS cap below refresh:") | [edit source](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?title=Openai/69447db3-806c-8006-b23b-7b480ecc717e&action=edit&section=10 "Edit section's source code: With FPS cap below refresh:")]

*   VRR stays active 100% of the time
*   No VSync “hard lock”
*   FG frames stay smooth
*   Lower perceived latency

This is especially important with AMD FG, because:

*   It already adds some latency
*   It’s more sensitive to VRR disengaging than NVIDIA Reflex + DLSS FG

#### ❌ What NOT to do[[edit](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?title=Openai/69447db3-806c-8006-b23b-7b480ecc717e&veaction=edit&section=11 "Edit section: ❌ What NOT to do") | [edit source](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?title=Openai/69447db3-806c-8006-b23b-7b480ecc717e&action=edit&section=11 "Edit section's source code: ❌ What NOT to do")]

*   ❌ In-game VSync + Driver VSync → double latency
*   ❌ No FPS cap → VRR breaks at ceiling
*   ❌ VSync OFF everywhere → tearing with FG
*   ❌ Chill instead of FPS cap → inconsistent pacing

#### [[edit](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?title=Openai/69447db3-806c-8006-b23b-7b480ecc717e&veaction=edit&section=12 "Edit section: 🧠 Extra tips (worth doing)") | [edit source](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?title=Openai/69447db3-806c-8006-b23b-7b480ecc717e&action=edit&section=12 "Edit section's source code: 🧠 Extra tips (worth doing)")]

*   Enable Anti-Lag / Anti-Lag+ (unless the game explicitly warns against it)
*   Avoid running above native refresh even if FG “can”
*   If the game supports it: Use in-game limiter > RTSS > FRTC (in that order)

#### Bottom line[[edit](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?title=Openai/69447db3-806c-8006-b23b-7b480ecc717e&veaction=edit&section=13 "Edit section: Bottom line") | [edit source](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?title=Openai/69447db3-806c-8006-b23b-7b480ecc717e&action=edit&section=13 "Edit section's source code: Bottom line")]

Best practice with AMD Frame Generation:

✔ FreeSync ON ✔ Driver VSync ON ✔ In-game VSync OFF ✔ FPS cap 3–5 below refresh

That gives you the smoothest frame pacing, lowest latency possible, and zero tearing with AMD FG.

If you want, tell me:

*   your monitor refresh rate
*   the game(s) you play
*   whether you’re using AFMF or FSR 3 FG

I can give you exact per-game settings 🔧

I couldn’t find an official AMD support page that explicitly says “enable V-Sync + VRR + frame cap when using Radeon frame generation” (similar to how NVIDIA documents Reflex + DLSS 3), but there *are pieces of official AMD documentation and authoritative sources that support the logic behind that recommendation. Here’s what we do have from AMD plus corroborating technical guidance:

##### ✅ 1. Official AMD on FSR / Frame Generation[[edit](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?title=Openai/69447db3-806c-8006-b23b-7b480ecc717e&veaction=edit&section=16 "Edit section: ✅ 1.

Official AMD on FSR / Frame Generation")]

*   AMD’s FSR technologies page confirms that FSR Frame Generation is designed to generate intermediate frames as part of the presentation pipeline, and that it works in tandem with upscaling and latency-reduction technologies like Radeon Anti-Lag 2. It doesn’t give configuration advice, but it shows AMD’s intention for optimal use in games. GPUOpen[[2]](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?oldid=594615&title=Openai%2F69447db3-806c-8006-b23b-7b480ecc717e#cite_note-2)

##### ✅ 2. AMD FSR 3 Technical documentation[[edit](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?title=Openai/69447db3-806c-8006-b23b-7b480ecc717e&veaction=edit&section=17 "Edit section: ✅ 2.

AMD FSR 3 Technical documentation")]

*   The AMD FSR Frame Generation Swapchain manual notes how the VSync and variable refresh rate (VRR) interact with the frame generation swapchain — showing that the pacing logic takes both into account during presentation. GPUOpen[[3]](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?oldid=594615&title=Openai%2F69447db3-806c-8006-b23b-7b480ecc717e#cite_note-3) This is important because it means the sync behavior isn’t ignored by the frame generation system.

##### 🔎 3. AMD’s indirect recommendations / best-practice hints[[edit](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?title=Openai/69447db3-806c-8006-b23b-7b480ecc717e&veaction=edit&section=18 "Edit section: 🔎 3.

AMD’s indirect recommendations / best-practice hints")]

While AMD hasn’t published a unified “gaming setup guide” yet like NVIDIA Reflex with DLSS, these technical and implementation docs make it clear:

*   The pacing logic of FSR Frame Generation considers expected refresh rate targets. GPUOpen[[4]](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?oldid=594615&title=Openai%2F69447db3-806c-8006-b23b-7b480ecc717e#cite_note-4)
*   Frame generation presumes input framerates above a threshold (e.g., ~60 FPS) to avoid interpolation artifacts. GPUOpen[[5]](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?oldid=594615&title=Openai%2F69447db3-806c-8006-b23b-7b480ecc717e#cite_note-5)
*   AMD does not disclaim VRR or VSync usage; rather, pacing systems interact with them depending on modes. GPUOpen[[6]](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?oldid=594615&title=Openai%2F69447db3-806c-8006-b23b-7b480ecc717e#cite_note-6)

##### [[edit](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?title=Openai/69447db3-806c-8006-b23b-7b480ecc717e&veaction=edit&section=19 "Edit section: 🧠 Community + expert confirmation") | [edit source](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?title=Openai/69447db3-806c-8006-b23b-7b480ecc717e&action=edit&section=19 "Edit section's source code: 🧠 Community + expert confirmation")]

Even though these are not official AMD marketing docs, they reflect what AMD engineers and experienced developers/testers have observed from AMD’s own technical releases:

*   Enabling VSync with frame generation is widely suggested for correct pacing and to avoid tearing because VRR alone doesn’t cap above the refresh rate when FG drives effective outputs. Reddit[[7]](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?oldid=594615&title=Openai%2F69447db3-806c-8006-b23b-7b480ecc717e#cite_note-7)
*   Many guides recommend FPS limiting when using frame generation, since unbounded framerates can cause sync issues and tearing even with VRR. Medium[[8]](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?oldid=594615&title=Openai%2F69447db3-806c-8006-b23b-7b480ecc717e#cite_note-8)
*   Frame pacing issues with FG/VSync/VRR being misaligned have been reported when VSync is disabled. NeoGAF[[9]](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?oldid=594615&title=Openai%2F69447db3-806c-8006-b23b-7b480ecc717e#cite_note-9)

##### 📌 What’s missing from AMD docs but implied[[edit](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?title=Openai/69447db3-806c-8006-b23b-7b480ecc717e&veaction=edit&section=20 "Edit section: 📌 What’s missing from AMD docs but implied") | [edit source](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?title=Openai/69447db3-806c-8006-b23b-7b480ecc717e&action=edit&section=20 "Edit section's source code: 📌 What’s missing from AMD docs but implied")]

AMD doesn’t yet publish one single authoritative “here’s how to configure GPU/driver/monitor for best experience with FSR Frame Generation + VRR” guidance like NVIDIA does with Reflex + DLSS.

However, the technical behavior of their frame pacing and swapchain code clearly relies on a stable presentation rhythm (which VRR + capped framerate + VSync provides). GPUOpen[[10]](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?oldid=594615&title=Openai%2F69447db3-806c-8006-b23b-7b480ecc717e#cite_note-10)
