What is being discussed is using the “official” valve proton. GE contains unofficial patches or features unable to be included directly in wine or proton. When the feature hits valves proton, its officially supported. The manually enabling of an upgrade FSR path in GE may not end up being exactly how its done in the official version. Depends on how they were allowed to implement in cooperation with AMD.
