The new driver release adds Radeon Chill profile for Evil Within 2 and Middle Earth: Shadow of War games

AMD has made available a new version of its Radeon Crimson Edition Graphics driver, namely 17.10.1 non-WHQL, which fixes the bezel compensation that couldn’t be applied in mixed mode Eyefinity.

In addition to that, the update also resolves the flickering tire graphics spotted in DiRT 4 when using Multi GPU enabled system configurations, and adds Radeon Chill profiles for Evil Within 2 and Middle Earth: Shadow of War games.

However, take into account that AMD’s package might still encounter corruptions in Forza Motorsport 7 when HDR is enabled in the game, a few issues with Radeon WattMan profiles, as well as random system hangs when playing Overwatch.

In terms of compatibility, besides the supported GPU list highlighted in the Release Notes below, take into account that your configuration must be running a 32- or 64-bit variant of Microsoft’s Windows 7 or 10 operating system (still Windows 8.1 isn’t supported anymore).

Therefore, to upgrade to this version, uninstall any previous AMD driver present on your computer, perform a reboot, save and run the downloadable executable suitable for your configuration and follow all instructions displayed on the screen for a complete and successful upgrade.

With this in mind, download AMD Radeon Crimson Graphics Driver 17.10.1, install it, and perform a reboot once finished to enjoy these new changes. Also, check back with us to stay “updated one minute ago.”
