AMD’s Crimson ReLive 17.9.1 is now available, improves stability and brings new game fixes


AMD has released a brand new driver for its graphics cards. According to the release notes, the AMD Radeon Software Crimson ReLive Edition 17.9.1 driver improves stability on Radeon RX Vega series graphics products after resuming from sleep and playing back video content, and addresses the mouse stuttering issues that could be observed on some Radeon RX graphics products when Radeon WattMan was open and running in the background or other third party GPU information polling apps were running in the background.

Furthermore, this driver fixes a hang or crash on some Radeon GCN1.0 series graphics products in Titanfall 2, the fail launch issues of Moonlight Blade on some Radeon Graphics Core Next series products, and the random corruption issues that could appear in Microsoft desktop productivity applications.

This driver also fixes some minor issues, like the Radeon Software Installer shrinking or appearing very small when installing on some 4K HDTVs, and the Radeon Settings sometimes experiencing a hang or crash when viewing the Display tab.
