👤by Tim Harmer Comments 📅24.10.2017 11:16:57


Not content with letting NVIDIA have it all their own way, AMD have also released their own driver update for their range of graphics hardware. The Radeon™ Software Crimson ReLive Edition 17.10.2 is intended as the day one driver for Destiny 2 and Wolfenstein II, the latter of which is scheduled for release on Friday October 27th.

These drivers also provide initial support new features incorporated into the Windows 10 Fall Creators Update. Early indications are that some games will benefit from this combination of drivers and beta OS features, so could well be worth keeping an eye on or tinkering with yourself.

As is generally the case, you can download the new drivers at support.amd.com/. Be careful to select the correct hardware as some older GPUs are not supported by the Crimson ReLive Edition package.
