AMD graphics card owners, given that it’s another fresh day, you’re probably not too surprised to find that you have a brand new driver update to install. Well… technically speaking you don’t have to do it, but if you’re planning on pumping more than a few hours into ‘Chernobylite’ then it definitely seems to be in your favour as Radeon Adrenalin 21.7.2 brings with it, aside from a bunch of useful fixes, game ready support for that title!
AMD Radeon Adrenalin 21.7.2 – Game Ready Drivers
As part of the official update notes, AMD has confirmed the following support and fixes brought with its latest graphics card driver update:
Support For:
- Chernobylite™
Added Vulkan Support
- VK_KHR_copy_commands2
- This extension introduces extensible versions of the Vulkan® buffer and image copy commands that can now accept extension-specific information via their copy parameters.
- VK_EXT_extended_dynamic_state2
- This extension allows more states to be set dynamically to reduce the number of unique pipeline state objects used by an application.
Fixed Issued:
- Game Compatibility advisor in AMD Radeon™ Software may incorrectly advise some users their CPU and/or GPU do not meet the minimum requirements to play some games. If some users are still experiencing this issue, reinstall or upgrade your driver and perform a factory reset. Learn more from AMD here on performing a factory reset.
- If a Blue or Black screen is observed in mobile systems, temporarily disable Enhanced sign-in.
- Resident Evil Village™ may experience an intermittent application hang or TDR on AMD Radeon™ VII graphics products in the first mission of the game.
- A Blue or Black screen may be observed after updating to the latest Radeon™ Software when core isolation is enabled.
