Nothing in the profile file for this against 18.9.1
AMD694C.1 = "Radeon RX Vega M GH Graphics - Unlocked"
AMD694C.2 = "Radeon RX Vega M GH Graphics"
AMD694E.1 = "Radeon RX Vega M GL Graphics"
These are in the INF now with sections for RX Vega M GPU support. (And VegaMDS)
And this was added to so custom skin support? (Maybe a later feature to come?)
HKR,, AllowSkins, %REG_SZ%, "true"

Compare/contrast
Nvidia just released 411.63. They've included something of peculiarity
I didn't know you could use vulkan for HDR support in windows. What would be the benefit? I can only assume AMD could do it as well.

Vulkan HDR for Windows
This driver release supports the
Vulkan VK_EXT_swapchain_colorspace
and
VK_EXT_hdr_metadata
extensions allowing applicatio
ns to output HDR content to
HDR displays via the Vulkan APIs.

It's one of the recent extensions.
https://developer.nvidia.com/vulkan-driver
Merging in at least the August changes from their development Vulkan driver.
But AMD only supports up to 1.1.77.1 as of now I believe so a bit after the current latest and in development runtimes. https://vulkan.lunarg.com/sdk/home#windows
(DXVK wrapping D3D11 -> VLK for Linux primarily recently added support for some interesting features via I think 1.1.84.1 too so that seems like it might be the next version coming out.)
EDIT: You can still use the latest loader/runtime though since it's backwards compatible. I use it for bug fixes although the core of it is in the driver specific Vulkan files and not the loader ones here.

Working Great so far.
IMO it has better performance than previous ones.

Please somebody report this bug to AMD. They should be testing with i7 7700X CPU. This is bad testing practise with k CPU.
