AMD hat den Catalyst 13.12 WHQL veröffentlicht. Dies ist der erste Treiber, der Frame Pacing für Crossfire-Gespanne offiziell unterstützt - bisher gab es die Technik für die regelmäßigere Bildausgabe nur in Alpha- und Betaversionen.

Der neue Catalyst-Treiber 13.12 WHQL für Radeon-Grafikkarten steht zum Download bereit. Als erster voll getesteter Treiber bietet er eine Unterstützung für Frame Pacing unter Windows 7 und 8. Zudem hat AMD nach eigenen Angaben die Skalierung von Crossfire in mehreren Spielen verbessert, darunter Metro Last Light und Splinter Cell Blacklist.

Mit einem Release Candidate kündigt sich der neue, voll getestete Catalyst-Treiber für AMDs Grafiklösungen an. Schon die Vorabversion skaliert besser mit Assassin's Creed 4 und beseitigt einen Bug, der mit einem 4K-Monitor von AOC auftrat.

AMD hat den Grafiktreiber Catalyst 14.7 RC für Windows veröffentlicht. Das Kürzel steht für Release Candidate, der Treiber ist also eine der letzten Versionen, die vor dem voll getesteten WHQL-Treiber erscheint. Funktionale Änderungen sind nicht mehr zu erwarten.

Der Catalyst 15.7 ist AMDs erster nicht in den Preview-Versionen integrierter Grafikkarten-Treiber für Windows 10. Er schaltet Downsampling und ein anpassbares Framerate-Limit für ältere Radeon-Modelle frei und unterstützt Crossfire für Freesync.

AMD hat den Grafikkarten-Treiber Catalyst 15.7 zum Download freigegeben. Es ist der erste Catalyst-Treiber, den AMD als eigenständiges Paket anbietet - bisherige Versionen waren in die Preview-Versionen integriert und unterstützten nicht alle Karten, darunter die Radeon R9 Fury X. Zu den neuen Funktionen des Catalyst 15.7 zählen Downsampling und Frame Rate Target Control für ältere Radeon-HD-Modelle. Die Freesync-Technik für Monitore arbeitet nun auch mit zwei oder mehr AMD-Grafikkarten im Crossfire-Betrieb zusammen, und generell gibt es eine bessere Multi-GPU-Unterstützung.
