The past few months the driver team has been working on a series of driver optimizations. Interestingly enough, most games that we tested show some sort of performance increase, and that's throughout the Guru3D software suite.
Catalyst changes and updates can be bulleted up towards these features.:
- Virtual Super Resolution (VSR)
- Video playback enhancements
- 5K LCD Panel Support
- Frametime Frame Pacing enhancements
- Performance optimizations for APUs
- Performance optimizations for Dedicated graphics cards
Performance Optimizations versus AMD Catalyst 14.9 WHQL
- Sid Meier's Civilization: Beyond Earth performance optimizations - Mantle API activated for ultimate performance in Sid Meier's Civilization: Beyond Eart
- Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare performance optimizations - Up to 30% performance increases with FXAA and lower game resolutions
- Optimized AMD CrossFire Profile update for improved performance - Assassin's Creed Unity performance optimizations
- Single GPU performance improvements - Optimized AMD CrossFire Profile update for improved performance
- Dragon Age: Inquisition performance optimizations - Up to 15% performance increase in single GPU scenarios with Anti-Aliasing enabled.
- Optimized AMD CrossFire Profile update for improved performance
- Far Cry 4 performance optimizations - Up to 50% performance increase in single GPU scenarios with Anti-Aliasing enabled.
The most prominent one will be VSR rendering, you guys also know this as super sampling and as DSR from Nvidia. We'll walk through some of these features.
We have an article on-line about this driver, read it right here.
