Les Radeon Software Adrenalin Edition 17.12.1 sont disponibles, quoi de neuf ?

Radeon Software Adrenalin Edition d'AMD

AMD propose une évolution importante de ses pilotes graphiques avec l’arrivée des Radeon Software Adrenalin Edition. Nous sommes en présence d’une nouvelle branche avec de nouvelles fonctionnalités, des gains de performance et des fonctions désormais accessibles au travers d’un smartphone.

Depuis maintenant deux ans, AMD propose une fois dans l’année une importante évolution de ses pilotes graphiques. Les Radeon Software Crimson ReLive sont désormais remplacés par les Radeon Software Adrenalin Edition.

AMD évoquent une hausse des performances face à ses précédents pilotes. Elle touche plusieurs jeux avec une Radeon RX 480. Les gains peuvent atteindre au maximum les 19%.

Ces pilotes s’accompagnent du Radeon Overlay, une interface utilisateur conçue pour permettre aux joueurs de surveiller leurs performances GPU sans quitter le jeu, d’ajuster leur gameplay à leurs propres préférences tout en restant connecté avec leurs amis.

En parallèle l’application mobile AMD Link débarque sous iOS et Android. Elle se présente comme un complément en proposant un second écran pour surveiller les performances GPU et les informations système du PC.

Des améliorations sont annoncées sur l’existant (Core technologies). Ceci touche le Radeon Chill (prise en charge des API Vulkan et DirectX 9, 10, 11 et 12), WattMan (sauvegarde et partage de profils personnalisés, l’Enhanced Sync (compatibilité améliorée et un champ de vision plus large) ou Radeon ReLive.

Pour revenir sur le Radeon Overlay, l’interface en jeu permet d’ajuster l’expérience de jeu et de surveiller, enregistrer et partager une progression sans quitter le titre. Un accès en un clic est proposé au Radeon ReLive, au moniteur de performance, à Radeon Chill, au Frame Rate Target Control (FRTC) mais aussi aux réglages du FreeSync et aux réglages des couleurs. De son côté l’AMD Link propose un suivi des performances GPU et du PC, un flux d’actualités et des notifications lors de la sortie de nouveaux pilotes

Ces pilotes s’accompagnent également de plusieurs corrections de bugs. La majorité d’entre eux concerne des jeux comme OverWatch, Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege Assassin’s Creed: Origins, Mass Effect Andromeda, Forza Horizon 3 et Halo Wars 2.

Il y a également des problèmes connus et non résolus (voir les détails dans la note de version). AMD propose plusieurs archives pour les environnements Windows 7 et Windows 10 en versions 32 et 64-bit.
