Les pilotes graphiques AMD Software Adrenalin Edition 24.9.1 débarquent, quoi de neuf ?

Une mise à jour majeure certifiée WHQL

Après Nvidia c’est au tour d’AMD de publier de nouveaux pilotes graphiques, les Software Adrenalin 24.9.1 WHQL. Cette version est importante avec à la clé des optimisations et des améliorations de performances. vVoici ce qu’il faut retenir.

L’un des points forts de cette mise à jour est l’introduction du Fluid Motion Frames 2 qui promet une avancée dans la technologie de génération de trames. L’AFMF 2 est censé réduire la latence de génération d’image dans les jeux rapide de quoi profiter d’un gameplay plus fluide et d’un FPS plus élevé avec une meilleure cohérence de génération d’images en mouvement rapide.  En outre, AMD promet une meilleure gestion du plein écran sans bordure, particulièrement utile pour les utilisateurs des produits de la série RDNA 3. AFMF 2 est désormais compatible avec plusieurs APIs, notamment OpenGL, Vulkan, DirectX 11 et DirectX 12. L’AFMF 2 propose également une interopérabilité avec Radeon Chill, permettant de plafonner le nombre d’images par seconde tout en minimisant la latence. Enfin cette technologie est disponible avec les Ryzen AI de la série 300.

D’autre part, l’Anti-Lag 2 est compatible avec l’API Vulkan et s’améliore dans Counter-Strike 2.  A noter qu’il est possible de mesurer en temps réel la latence du système grâce à l’indicateur de latence d’image (FLM) ou via le moniteur de latence intégré à Anti-Lag 2, activable par un raccourci clavier.

Parmi les autres améliorations, on note une réduction des artefacts dans la lecture vidéo avec l’option de réduction d’échelle géométrique, disponible sur les cartes graphiques intégrées Radeon 800M ainsi que sur les cartes graphiques Radeon RX 7000 series. Enfin, le Radeon Boost est disponible avec FINAL FANTASY XVI, tandis que HYPR-Tune permet l’activation automatique des technologies tFidelityFXSuper Resolution et Radeon Anti-Lag 2.

A tout ceci s’ajoute la prise en charge de la configuration automatique du FidelityFX Super Resolution 3 avec génération d’images par plusieurs jeux dont Black Myth: Wukong, Creatures of Ava, Frostpunk 2 et God of War Ragnarök . Dans le même esprit AMD introduit le support de la configuration automatique de l’Anti-Lag 2 dans Ghost of Tsushima DIRECTOR’S CUT.

Enfin ces nouveaux pilotes corrigent plusieurs problèmes, comme des plantages intermittents dans Warhammer 40,000 : Space Marine 2 et FINAL FANTASY XVI. Néanmoins, certains problèmes connus persistent, notamment des performances irrégulières dans DayZ ou des délais d’expiration de pilote dans Space Marine 2, pour lesquels une solution est attendue dans une prochaine version.

What to Know?

AMD Fluid Motion Frames (AFMF) 2

AFMF is a state-of-the-art frame generation technology exclusive to AMD. It enhances frame rates and gameplay smoothness and is integrated into AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition™. As part of AMD HYPR-RX, our one-click performance solution, it delivers exceptional gaming experiences on AMD Radeon graphics cards.

How to Enable AFMF 2

    • AFMF 2 can be enabled for any OpenGLNEW, VulkanNEW, DirectX® 11, and 12 title using HYPR-RX or the AMD Fluid Motion 2 Toggle.
      • AFMF 2 is supported on AMD Radeon™ 700M and 800M integrated graphics, as well as AMD Radeon™ RX 6000 and RX 7000 series desktop and mobile discrete graphics cards.
      • AFMF 2 currently requires the game to be played in exclusive or borderless fullscreen mode with VSync disabled.
        • For a better visual experience, use AFMF 2 with a variable refresh rate-enabled display.
          • Enabling Radeon™ Chill after AFMF will automatically set the FPS cap to reduce tearing.
      • Use the in-game overlay (ALT+R) in AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition™ to check AFMF’s frame generation status.
    • AFMF 2 adds frame generation technology to boost FPS outside the game’s engine. Users can enable the AMD Software Performance Metrics Overlay to see the resulting FPS.
      • Users looking for a way to measure the response time of games can make use of our Frame Latency Meter (FLM).

How to Optimize AFMF 2

    • AFMF 2 introduces new modes that are automatically tuned for the best experience based on your configuration. These can be manually adjusted to your preferences if needed
      • AFMF 2 adds a new “High” Search Mode setting for improved frame consistency during fast motion, enabled by default for resolutions of 2560×1440 and above.
        • This reduces the jittering or stuttering encountered with AFMF 1 at higher resolutions.
    • AFMF 2 adds a new Performance Mode setting to reduce frame-generation overhead, enabled as “Performance” by default for integrated graphics products.
      • Integrated graphics users may switch back to the “Quality” performance preset for better frame-generation quality during fast motion. The “Quality” preset is the default when using discrete graphics cards.
      • Users can manually enable this “Performance” mode on discrete graphics cards to hit even higher frame rates when GPU bound to maximize the FPS uplift.
    • Users can find these tuning options within the “Advanced View” of HYPR-RX.

AFMF 2 Support for Multi-GPU Configurations

    • For any hybrid-graphics configuration, AFMF 2 will use the displaying GPU for frame generation, allowing the render GPU to focus on the game.

Known Issues

  • Intermittent performance when entering certain areas while playing DayZ. [Resolution targeted for 24.10.1]
  • Intermittent driver timeout or crash may be observed while playing Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 on some AMD Graphics Products, such as the AMD Ryzen™ AI 9 HX 370. Users experiencing this issue can enable Variable Graphics Memory in AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition as a temporary measure (AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition -> Performance -> Tuning -> Variable Graphics Memory).
