AMD Software Adrenalin Edition 22.5.2 Driver Releases
AMD Software Adrenalin Edition 22.5.2 driver is released, which will support Sniper Elite 5, Hitman 3 ray tracing extensions, and other Vulkan extensions. Radeon Super Resolution (RSR) is already compatible with Ryzen 6000 series APUs, and the new “Sharpen Effect” allows players to fine-tune the effect of RSR to get the settings they want.
The new driver will also support AMD Privacy View and be optimized for DirectX 11 mode on the Radeon RX 6000 series. In addition, Death Stranding and Watch Dogs: Legion support for Smart Access Memory (SAM) will be optimized.
