AMD has released a brand new driver for its graphics cards. According to the release notes, the AMD Radeon Adrenalin 2020 Edition 20.7.1 driver is optimized for Disintegration. Moreover, this driver packs numerous bug fixes for various games.

Going into more details, the AMD Radeon Adrenalin 2020 Edition 20.7.1 driver fixes hitching or stutter in some games when Instant Replay is enabled on Radeon RX 5000 series system configurations. Additionally, it resolves intermittent corruption and crashes in Doom Eternal. It also addresses some crashes in Deus Ex: Mankind Divided.

Custom tuning profiles now load or apply correctly after some system boot. Also, fan speed does no longer report as zero when GPU-Z is running alongside a 3D application. Not only that, but custom fan and clock tuning no longer reset to default values.
