14 DAY TRIAL // AMD has just released a new version of its Radeon Software Adrenalin Edition Graphics driver, namely the 21.6.1 (21.20.01.14) package, which implements support for Radeon RX 6800M cards, as well as for FidelityFX Super Resolution (FSR) for select titles.
In addition to that, the current release also includes support for Dungeons & Dragons: Dark Alliance, improves performance in Destiny 2 on some Radeon Graphics products, fixes Anno 1800 crashes, and resolves a Ray Tracing issue seen when running Ring of Elysium on DirectX12.
Moreover, AMD promises that Radeon FreeSync won’t get locked and cause poor performance or stuttering upon closing a game, its cleanup utility will avoid chipset/RAID installer-related folders/registries, and the User Experience Program Master service will have a lower CPU utilization.
Still, the current update might experience a few problems with Radeon VII, RX Vega, RX 5000, and RX 6000 series GPUs, when playing Resident Evil Village, as well as with a few other issues just like described in the Release Notes below.
In terms of compatibility, besides a supported GPU, take into account that this release is only compatible with Microsoft Windows 10 64-bit; support for Windows 7 platforms and some older generations graphics products has now ended (the final driver is Adrenalin Edition 21.5.2).
With this in mind, remove any previous version from your computer, save and run the downloadable package, wait for all files required to be made available, and follow all instructions displayed on the screen for a complete upgrade.
In other words, if you consider applying this release, download AMD Radeon Adrenalin Edition Graphics Driver 21.6.1, install it, and perform a reboot once finished. Also, check back with us to stay “updated one minute ago.”
