Unfortunately, the iGPU is not slated to get an RDNA5 upgrade, with numerous rumours stating it will stick with RDNA 3.5.

RDNA4 would have been ok, as it does support hardare-based, DLSS-like, upscaling (FSR4), but RDNA3.5 does not (AMD is also ignoring INT8 upscaling, which is still a huge improvement): youtube.com/watch?v=VPMOjdvmHMk ("FSR4 on RDNA3 on Windows!!!

No at least RDNA4, no buy.

Including RDNA2 and RDNA3 users still being upset because still no FSR4 INT8 on RDNA3:

.., at least the INT8 version not being available on their GPUs, despite the fact we know it absolutely does work.
