Is it WHQL? Can somebody check it.... Ok it's Beta... Need to wait week or two for updated .exe Happy with 20.5.1 WHQL

OnnA:

Is it WHQL? Can somebody check it....

It is with WHQL certificate according to dxdiag. And without HAGS at least for VEGA.

Beta from gpu-z.

Meh...

Too many issues once again. Half of them affect me and I need workarounds. Meh, I won't blame covid19 AMD.

No WDDM 2.7 support

Profile for flight simulator 2020 in these in addition to the listed entries for horizon, grounded and hyper. 🙂 Should still be WDDM 2.7 compliant too although HWGPU scheduling is still not part of this probably needing more testing for compatibility issues. EDIT: And since it's backwards compatible there's a newer Vulkan 1.2.148.0 runtime available now to mention that. https://vulkan.lunarg.com/sdk/home (Just the small 1.5 MB runtime not the complete SDK installer.)

No WDDM 2.7 support

???? According to GPUZ and Dxdiag it is WDDM 2.7 driver. Care to explain why you think it isn't 2.7 ?

Probably the GPU scheduling but I think it's optional, think I saw a mention AMD is also still not supporting one of those things for a WDDM 2.6 feature for I think it's the one in regards to tracked workloads but I'm not entirely sure on that one. It'll land eventually, there's little use for it at the moment but it'll be useful once properly ready for implementation and whenever AMD/NVIDIA and Intel together with Microsoft can de-bug it better although it looks like it's getting there but some games are still prone to start-up issues going by some of the NVIDIA driver comments but I suppose there's more to it in the driver side implementation too so it may not be entirely comparable across what either of Green or Red are doing with it. Or it might be, Microsoft probably has further plans for it later on but that's not happening anytime soon so late build 2021 or even 2022 for Win10 or later I would guess at the earliest but that might still be very optimistic for further additions here. EDIT: It's a 2-3 ish percent performance boost which is neat but the compatibility problems I would say is a serious trade-off until resolved and the matter of requiring a full reboot and it being a global toggle for everything makes it a bit inflexible much as free performance is nice. 🙂 Although so far testing confirms that to be more like a best case scenario and overall it's a thing for future additions that otherwise does very little in it's current stage of implementation but it'll change. Whatever that will mean, bit like a fast path for certain GPU scheduling commands and tasks that might be possible to expand into more but that won't be a easy or quick process or I wouldn't expect it to be. (Changing things up rarely is after all much as it's beneficial to do so even when it takes like a decade for it to take effect in full heh.)

I meant hardware accelerated GPU Scheduling

You can just say HWS or HAGS

Some games may exhibit stutter intermittently during gameplay on Radeon RX 5000 series graphics products.

In other words about nothing.

until they don't fix the pes2020 bug..i can't not update from 20.4.1

If that driver is stable and you suffer no bugs with it, keep using it. There is no need to update, unless of course, you wanna play say, Horizon Zero Dawn.

Why? Is there any rule that indicates if a driver which does not mention support for a game you cannot play it? That "myth" somehow must stop between vendors and game community. 🙂

Have you reported this with the bug report tool?

Installed after DDU, all good so far.

Well, BIG NO, but, performance penalties could arise. Or even bugs. Who know unless tested.
