AMD Adrenalin Edition 24.3.1 Driver Released, Optimized for Dragon’s Dogma 2 & Horizon: Forbidden West

8 Comments

AMD has released a new driver for its graphics cards. According to the red team, the AMD Adrenalin Edition 24.3.1 driver offers optimal performance in Dragon’s Dogma 2 and Horizon: Forbidden West Complete Edition.

Additionally, this driver adds support for Outpost: Infinity Siege. Not only that but it expands support for HYPR-Tune in Diablo 4, Ghostrunner 2 and Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League.

This latest driver also comes with fixes for some other games. For instance, it resolves some crashes in Helldivers 2 on AMD Radeon RX 7900 series GPUs. It also reduces initial loading times while playing World of Warcraft with the DirectX 12 API. Plus, it fixes the purple corruption issues that could occur in Dying Light 2 Stay Human: Reloaded Edition.

But wait, there is more. This new driver addresses some microstuttering issues that could happen when enabling AMD Fluid Motion Frames for select games. It also resolves an issue that could drop performance while using some DirectML workloads in Topaz AI. Furthermore, shader caching will no longer fail for Windows usernames containing accented characters. Oh, and the FPS performance metric will now report the correct values while a game is minimized.

You can download this new driver from this link. You can also find below its complete changelog.
