Interesting stuff.

Well, let's see. I'm quite curious, they improved AMF recently, so quality shouldn't be so bad.

 

[Phynaz]

Do you think that's the big Crimson announcement?

 

[linkgoron]

Looks like a major update.

I wonder how Radeon chill will pan out. I really hope it doesn't degrade performance. More performance for the 480 is also obviously a plus and wattman for the 390 is nice.

Borderless fullscreen window Freesync! Multi-monitor/multi-tasking gamers rejoice!

dont you think this is a major driver release?

Wattman for the 3 Series and 2 Series is great.

Wattman for the 3 Series and 2 Series is great.

Will make undervolting a 290 a lot easier. I had to flash my gpu bios for it, because when you set afterburner to -50mV it'll also apply that in idle and crash.

Finally! I would of been ok if Freesync worked on main screen with fullscreen game and chrome was running on second screen.

 

[Rifter]

Im looking forward to this.

This is huge. I love Shadowplay, but if AMD can pull this off, then I'll have no issues switching next go round.

Goddamn, nice one AMD! I could definitely get used to these yearly feature packed updates.

Go RTG!

 

[Yakk]

That is quite the leak... Looks awesome!

One of the slides mention, automatic HDMI signal loss recovery and diagnostics. If it means, the card will try to trigger HDMI handshake again under certain error conditions, then it's a great update for those of us running HTPCs, with display occasionally getting stuck in black-screens.

 

[brandonmatic]

Looks like great stuff from RTG. More features are always welcome.

You answered a question with a question....

I don't know if it's a major driver release, that's why I asked. To me it looks like bundled software and not drivers. I'm not the target market though, as I don't record or stream video games.

No, it's a major driver release, similar to those from 2014 and 2015.

Reported to also have performance improvements at the driver level.

Last years release had a 1% improvement in general - http://www.anandtech.com/show/9811/amd-crimson-driver-overview/5

On the performance side, Radeon cards such as the RX 480 see up to 8% performance increase with ReLive.

1% increase is good for a driver release, if this release has gains anywhere close to 8% it will be awesome.

In time for my new XFX RX 480 GTR Black, should be in da house by Saturday, cant wait to try them both.

 

[Shivansps]

OK AMD admiting the H264 downgrade, just to be clear.

mmm performance hit is kinda high, but even so im looking forward to this and to compare it to Win10 GameDVR.

Lets hope for HEVC support at launch as well, as today HEVC is not supported on the AMF.

Performance is a little better than Shadowplay. 🙂

The cards can do better encoding than Live is able to do for now but better support should not be far away.

You can record right now with Plays.TV and GameDVR with AMD hardware with near zero, or zero performance hit. Shadowplay performance is also near zero hit as far as i know.
