F1 2019 Patch 1.07 adds support for NVIDIA DLSS and AMD FidelityFX


Codemasters has released a brand new update for its latest F1 racing game, F1 2019. According to the release notes, patch 1.07 adds official support for both NVIDIA’s DLSS and AMD’s FidelityFX tech.

To be honest, I’m a bit surprised to see Codemasters adding DLSS support. This latest F1 game already runs incredibly fast on current-gen graphics cards. Still, and by using this tech, RTX2080 and RTX2070 owners may actually be able to run the game in 4K resolutions.

On the other hand, I’m pretty sure that all AMD NAVI owners will appreciate the inclusion of FidelityFX. FidelityFX is currently available exclusively on the NAVI GPUs, and promises to increase image fidelity without any major performance loss.

F1 2019 update 1.07 also reduces GPU usage in the front end, enables HDR for when running in DX12 on PC, and packs other fixes and stability improvements.

As always, Steam will download this update the next time you launch its client, and below you can find its complete changelog.
