]]> After being abandoned for more than two months, AMD’s Radeon RX 6000 series graphics cards can finally use a new driver. In keeping with its promise, AMD has launched the Adrenalin Edition 23.2.1 driver for this series of graphics cards. However, the driver is not only for the RX 6000 series but also supports the RX 7000 series and RX 400 series and later GPUs.

The Adrenalin Edition 23.2.1 driver brings official support for Forspoken and Dead Space. Of course, there are performance improvements too, with AMD claiming that the Adrenalin Edition 23.2.1 driver offers up to a 7% boost in 4K performance on Forspoken compared to the previous Adrenalin Edition driver, which was released in December 2022. It is also as high as 4% in Legacy of Watts, and the performance improvement in “F1 2022” is as high as 19%.

In addition, AMD is focusing more on Vulkan in this version of the driver, and also added support for the REE compiler using the MLIR interface on Vulkan and several Vulkan extensions.

Additionally, users of the Radeon RX 6900 series are finally getting some of the features that users of the Radeon RX 7900 series have been enjoying, with AMD providing H.264 and H.265 streaming optimization on the Adrenalin Edition 23.2. An update was made.

The latest version of OBS Studio will come with an optimized encoder modeled for AMD’s Radeon RX 6000 and RX 7000 series graphics cards. In addition, the software brings AV1 encoding acceleration support to the latter.

The Adrenalin Edition 23.2.1 driver also fixes many problems, such as the performance degradation of “Fortress Night” and the lagging problem of “Sea of Thieves”. However, some known bugs still exist. For example, the high standby power of Radeon RX 7000-series graphics cards associated with high-resolution and high-refresh-rate displays remains. Additionally, some users may still experience slow performance on VR games or applications.
