The AMD Driver Thread

I've been using Crimson for a few weeks now, it's nice. Shader Cache is my favourite new feature. It makes Battlefield 4 DX11 play nicely with QuadFire at 4K. :)

Could be nice, although new hardware needed and if you're buying new hardware why not get something with DP?

I'm looking forward to the DX9 stuff like Crossfire FreeSync and the latency stuff.

Not sure if current consoles could support FreeSync, guess they should in theory depending on if the hardware that allows it has been stripped out of them. Not sure if AMD have a deal in place for the next consoles, but if not there's no guarantee the next ones will be compatible.

Then you'd need to get it included in TVs as a feature a lot of people may not use.

It would most likely get implemented into a new HDMI spec.
 
Never know tbh consoles known to get remodel like slimmer versions etc might just updated the hdmi port of needed.

Time will tell. Amd must have a good enough idea to be chasing it.

Very interesting features. Especially that optimised flip queye size, which should basicly reduce input lag.

Looks like us *nixers are getting some love to, and with perf gains :D

Any thing on freesync Matt!
 
This driver package is looking excellent. Best driver release I have ever seen. Let's hope it works well with no issues :D
