After about two weeks, AMD issues another update to its Radeon Software Adrenalin 2019 Edition. The software, version 19.7.3, has been optimized to run the upcoming Wolfenstein: Youngblood, released on 26th July.
According to AMD, the new drivers can provide up to 13% higher game performance in Wolfenstein: Youngblood, compared to the previous version. It also includes Radeon GPU Profiler and Microsoft PIX supports for the new RX 5700-series graphics cards.
We have attached the official release notes for the software below:
Support For
- Wolfenstein™: Youngblood
- Up to 13% better performance with Radeon™ Software Adrenalin 2019 Edition 19.7.3 in Wolfenstein: Youngblood than with Radeon™ Software Adrenalin 2019 Edition 19.7.2RS-304
- Radeon GPU Profiler on Radeon RX 5700 series graphics products
- Microsoft PIX on Radeon RX 5700 series graphics products
Added Vulkan® Support
- VK_EXT_display_surface_counter
- This extension defines a vertical blanking period counter associated with display surfaces. It provides a mechanism to query support for such a counter from a VkSurfaceKHR object
- VK_AMD_pipeline_compiler_control
- This extension provides a way to set per-pipeline compiler options, for instance, to relax rounding rules when working with mixed-precision floating point values.
- VK_AMD_shader_core_properties2
- This extension exposes additional, AMD specific shader core properties for a physical device
- VK_EXT_subgroup_size_control
- This extension provides additional control over subgroup size, allowing applications for instance to opt-in to different subgroup sizes on devices supporting more than just one.
- VK_KHR_imageless_framebuffer
- This extension allows framebuffers to be created without the need for creating images first, allowing more flexibility in how they are used, and avoiding the need for many of the compatibility rules.
- VK_KHR_variable_pointers
- This extension allows implementations to indicate their level of support for the SPV_KHR_variable_pointers SPIR-V extension. The SPIR-V extension allows shader modules to use invocation-private pointers into uniform and/or storage buffers, where the pointer values can be dynamic and non-uniform. This release adds the optional VariablePointers support.
