Will FSR 3 frame generation work at all on Linux? (self.linux_gaming)

AMD announced FSR 3 will allow for fluid motion frame generation in-game on almost any GPU in any DirectX12 game, doubling or even tripling your FPS.

Would this work on Linux? Considering DirectX to Vulkan translation and our lack of Radeon software. Obviously I expect when FSR 3 releases it'll be a little while until people get it working on Linux if it is possible to get it to work.

I'm quite excited for FSR 3, not that I don't have a good GPU (I have a 6800XT) but I'm just excited to try real-time frame generation without spending a small fortune on a sub-par GPU from a sub-par company. Should I, and probably many other Linux gamers, look forward to FSR 3?

FreeSync seems to work fine for me since switching to an AMD GPU. Does it not work for you?

I think I read the changelog wrong because apparently freesync has been a thing in the kernel since a while back. Probably just some improvement being implemented in 6.5

To be honest I haven't ever tested because while my display technically supports it, it's a pretty basic display with not a lot or Hz range so I haven't bothered to check.

I mostly notice because I have two displays with different refresh rates, so it's pretty noticable.
