The feature, which as Tom&#8217;s Hardware notes, was originally part of Copilot+ PCs that feature Snapdragon X or X2 processors, should give players higher framerates thanks to AI processing that lets the system render games at lower resolutions and scale them up to higher ones.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">In a video posted to X by Kotaku&#8217;s Ethan Gach, Microsoft showcases Forza Horizon 5 running on the Ally X, first at 35 fps without Auto SR turned on, then at &#8220;around 51 fps&#8221; with it active. The company says turning on Auto SR will mean &#8220;an almost 30% frame rate boost all while maintaining nearly equivalent visual quality.&#8221; It&#8217;s worth noting, though, that the feature, which only works for games with DirectX 11 or 12 support, can also introduce latency in its existing implementation, as Tom&#8217;s Hardware writes. <\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">The coming update is a great change for the system, which is already the best handheld gaming PC you can buy. In the video, the company doesn&#8217;t say whether the feature is also coming to the lower-powered ROG Xbox Ally. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/your-xbox-ally-x-is-due-for-a-crucial-performance-update-in-april\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article At Source <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Microsoft announced at GDC today that it&#8217;s adding Automatic Super Resolution (Auto SR) to the Asus ROG Xbox Ally X in April, reports Windows Central&#8230;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":36078,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[163,5214,1389,6064,2742,2622,162],"class_list":["post-36077","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-tech-gadgets-reviews","tag-ally","tag-april","tag-crucial","tag-due","tag-performance","tag-update","tag-xbox","wpcat-32-id"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/36077","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=36077"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/36077\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/36078"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=36077"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=36077"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=36077"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
