GOverlay 1.8.8 Released with OptiScaler FSR4-i8 and RDNA3 MLFG Options

GOverlay 1.8.8 was released today, July 19, 2026, building upon features introduced in version 1.8.7. This update primarily focuses on significant enhancements to the OptiScaler component, particularly for FSR4. New options include a "Preferred Upscaler" for user selection and a "Force FSR4-i8" setting, available on the bleeding-edge channel, to enable the INT8 model on unsupported GPUs. For RDNA3 GPUs, the "Emulate FP8" checkbox is retained, with its tooltip updated to clarify its role in activating FSR Machine Learning Frame Generation (MLFG). The update also introduces automatic synchronization of OptiScaler.ini and fakenvapi.ini on game launch. Additionally, version 1.8.7 included initial additions for low latency and pascube benchmark information.
