AMD Announces Radeon Software Adrenalin Edition

AMD Announces Radeon Software Adrenalin Edition

Right, so AMD is now teasing and announcing their yearly December driver. It will be called Radeon Software Adrenalin Edition and is due for a release in early December. The driver, we can safely assume, would become version 17.12 WHQL.

We'll have to wait and see what the new revision brings, perhaps a performance enhancement or two? We do think a new overlay will be embedded offering your FPS data on screen as well as some new "Polaris" and "Vega" features. AMD posted a video presentation announcing the new drivers.

Named after Adrenalin Rose, Radeon Software Adrenalin Edition continues AMD’s commitment to releasing major driver updates annually. The fully redesigned and supercharged Radeon Software Crimson Edition in 2015 received the highest user satisfaction rating of any AMD software ever, while Radeon Software Crimson ReLive Edition continued the 90 percent user satisfaction for 12 straight months in a row.

As a reminder, over the past three years, Radeon Software has delivered to users 70 software releases, launch day support for more than 75 games and over 50 new or enhanced features, with more than 250 million downloads across the globe. Radeon Software continues to lead the way in elevating high-performance gaming and VR experience for gamers, professionals and game developers.

Ehm so like before you get all excited, ... it's an 81-second teaser video nothing more. So really, that's all it is. Hey, at least you now know what the name of the December driver is eh? And not, ReLive ReDux.

The name sounds better than ReLive Redux to be honest. Thanks for the update, Chief!

Unfortunately, because hardcore gaming enthusiasts will be happy with the overlay, there's probably a 50/50 chance there won't be any performance improvements but I'm hoping. There's clearly a lot of untapped power in Vega based on what it's doing with legacy software. Also, with the performance of the X1X, there has to be more untapped optimizations, it's a beast.

To clarify, is this supposed to be the successor to Crimson? I remember hearing how AMD was planning on using names of different shades of red when releasing new versions of their userland driver. I've been surprised to see Crimson was used for so long (wasn't it only supposed to be used up till 2016?).

I know this is a bit early to jump the gun, but I'd like to see features like:

Built-in Artifact scanner/counter
Video memory error scanner/counter
Real Time VRM and VRAM temperature monitoring (could be difficult to pull off since AIB partners work their own thingamagic when it comes to Mosfets)
A lil' more stability for old and new GPU architectures alike within the official driver settings suite for controlling clock speed/voltage
Show Fury/Fury Nano/Fury X some HBCC love? (Remember VSR on HD 7000 series of cards, people?)

If AMD can pull this off, they'll get right back into the game and take back the market like they deserve. They've done a tremendous job regarding drivers in terms of performance over the years for older cards (with a few quirks here and there) and newer cards alike and have always seemed to take steps into the right direction which is the only reason I have been with their products for about 16+ years. (Including the time when ATi were all the Rage) Competition is everything as we've seen in the CPU market.
