About RDNA 3 FSR 4.1 compatibility on already existing games:

May I ask, for RDNA 3, does this need an individual game update or will a driver update be enough to actually do the job?

For example Ghost of Tsushima, AC Shadows, and Resident Evil Requiem(Already got the FSR 4-ready for RDNA 4 support but that's before RDNA 3 has FSR 4 support)

Like if the game's last update was like several months prior to the RDNA 3 FSR 4 launch, but the game is FSR 4-ready by then(only for 9000 Series as of now), will the FSR 4 be automatically selectable in the in-game upscaling options on RDNA 3 since technically it should be supported out of the box by July? Or do I have to wait for a game update, so still have to use Optiscaler since the patch is not updated enough to think that even RDNA 3 is also eligible and still thinks that FSR 4 option is 9000 Series only?

How do outdated/non-July-patched games w/ FSR 4 behave? Are they like racistly hard coded 'FSR 4 == RX 9000 Series cards only' or is it adaptable like FSR 4 become automatically whitelisted on RDNA 3 since it just looks at the updated driver?

How was it back then when old gen gpus suddenly got a new upscaling support?

If a card gets a new upscaling support, would existing pirated games w/ FSR4 feature will have an FSR 4 toggle for that card?

It has been confirmed that FSR 4 will come on older gpus. Right now only the current AMD Radeon generation, RX 9000 Series, have it. For example, I have a 7000 Series card and is playing the cracked Black Myth Wukong from May 2026, will the in-game toggleable FSR 4 automatically appear in Black Myth Wukong since the gpu already supports FSR4 on July? Or does the game need to be updated just for it to recognize that an old gen card is actually compatible on AMD's current FSR4 gpu catalog.

How was it way back then? Didn't the last last gen RDNA 2 gpus got FSR 3 as well? How did prior already cracked games for example Cyberpunk behaved around the new gpu driver versions. Did Cyberpunk already automatically have a toggleable FSR 3 for RDNA 2(RX 6000 Series)? Or did it not since it was still using an old implementation of FSR 3 that is only coded for RDNA 3(RX 7000 Series) gpus?

TLDR: Will FSR 4 in game toggle work on games with integrated FSR4 even before RX 7000 Series gpus have support for that specific upscaler? Because right now 7000 Series cards are only FSR 3 supported, meaning they can't still get official FSR 4 til July.

Due to different preferences, I understand if some of you would actually still opt for FSR 3 in certain titles if you value fps over visuals, while I do think my system is capable enough for my expectations to take some 10 fps loss from FSR3 so I can get the image quality from FSR4.

I wanna read your thoughts and in what game makes you prefer/opt for FSR 3 over the INT8 FSR4, vice versa.
