I was working on that...the copy and paste always has to be edited and I understand it can be hard to read

It is a big package to download. 499 MBs just letting people know. It seems slow but that may be due to the downloads getting hit hard.

Relive is a an optional install and the install program is pretty different and been majorly updated. Install was very fast compared previous Crimson Drivers.

Link is down again. Also, on AMD site it still says 16.11.5 are the latest.

Nop link is working,just downloaded it!

Thank you for the heads up. Downloading now , link is working , try again my friend Undying 🙂

This one is working for me (if anyone else also got problem) here it is : https://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-articles/Pages/Radeon-Software-Crimson-ReLive-Edition-16.12.1-Release-Notes.aspx

I can't find any option to enable Radeon Chill.

Go to WattMan Scroll down...its there!

I can't find any option to enable Radeon Chill.

Me either. Thanks found it. For custom resolution to change the refresh rate you click the refresh "mini window" and type it in, it does not have a arrow denoting drop down or changeable then click save in the upper right.

Oh fantastic! Can finally ditch plays.tv, proper video capture now, can even capture the desktop!

"DirectX®12 content may be unable to launch on some older CPUs that do not support popcnt instruction." Some older AMD CPU user should be happy for this.

I can't find any option to enable Radeon Chill.

For me it's listed under the Gaming tab. Check either specific game or global settings. It's a tab there.

Installed to my 280X just fine. Driver itself is supporting GCN1.0 but we are missing most of its features. 🙁 It isnt all so bad, check this out. I broke 10k graphics score in firestrike for the first time with this driver (400pts+ increase) so even its old we are atleast still getting some performance increase. https://s24.postimg.org/bmjlcgot1/Untitled.png

DX11 Overhead test. http://www.3dmark.com/compare/aot/179106/aot/179033

Cant OC HBM on Wattman and Afterburner is not working 🙁

Reporting back on temps on my single R9 390 (other gpu comes back tomorrow from RMA) Gpu Core and both VRM temps are already lower without chill enabled. My VRM temps are around 10 to 15 degrees lower across the board, while the core temp is down a few degrees even under load. Chill ekks out a few more degrees lower for me. 3dmark scores and FPS were the nearly identical with or without chill enabled. score without chill enabled: http://www.3dmark.com/fs/11014959 Score with chill enabled: http://www.3dmark.com/fs/11015026 Power efficiency off for both tests. Compartive bases scores from 16.11.5 drivers at the same settings: http://www.3dmark.com/fs/10987107
