FSR gives me worse performance

[ciberpsycho prime]

literally when I activate the fsr and my fps drops, in any mode, I have a ryzen 3 3200g with igpu, it is supposed to improve performance not worsen it

radeon anti lag, chill, and boost actually make everything worse if i try them on, so no surprise, all of them was described to improve either fps, fidelity, or stability but having fps jump from 10 to 60 and 60 to 10 everytime I move mouse or move ingame is not good
just turn everthing off in amd cards, just default it

same here

in chill did you set minimum fps value the same as max fps. If you change the max fps then the fps target will change to a average between the two values.

For example: if min is set to 60 and max is set to 120 then not touching any input will give you 60fps. Moving the mouse will try to target 90fps. Moving the mouse and pressing multiple keys will hit your 120fps max. But if min and max are both set to 75 then the fps cap will be 75 at all times.

Ermm non of those are meant to improve performance apart from boost and that only works with supported games which im pretty sure warframe isnt one off.

That said they are not meant to drop performance either, I run Anti Lag all the time, not the others though.

@OP it does not really make sense that you are getting less performance at lower res, unless its actually the cpu that is more of that bottleneck but even then its a bit odd.

Can you tell me what the performance difference is between running it with all settings normal, and running it with FSR performance?

I can only imagine that FSR2 is actually a bit too new and too demanding for the gpu, remember, yeah its meant to be a net positive, but it still requires something of the pc, namely upscaling.
Sometimes that can be too heavy, the SteamDeck has the same problem, its not entirely free performance.

You are probably better off just running a lower resolution and relying on just basic upscaling.

EDIT:
Radeon software has 2 features you might want to play around with, Warframe has an ingame sharpener but Radeon Software has it as well which you could active just for this game (gaming tab > Warframe > Radeon Image sharpening)

And you could try to run the game in fullscreen mode, then use Radeon Super Resolution in Radeon Software to basically do the upscaling for you, I think that is FSR 1.0 which is much lighter on the hardware.

So basically in radeon software you turn on Radeon Super Resolution (either in general or just for warframe) then run Warframe in fullscreen and set the resolution to below your monitors resolution, for example 720p, then if all is well, FSR 1,0 will be used for the upscaling.
