Third consecutive exclusive driver from AMD Software Adrenalin 23.1.2 for the RX 7900 Series; no new driver for the RX 6950 XT since 48 days
The third consecutive driver of its kind, AMD today released the Adrenalin 23.1.2 drivers exclusively for the Radeon RX 7900 series. Since December 8, 2022 (48 days ago), no updated driver has been released for older GPUs, including the RX 6000 series and the 7-month-old RX 6950 XT. As a result, the vast majority of AMD Radeon users do not yet have optimization for games like Forspoken and Valhiem. Only the RX 7900 XT and RX 7900 XTX are compatible with the most recent 23.1.2 drivers. These add day-zero optimization for “Forspoken” and a few background Vulkan API improvements. The “Delayed Write Failed” problem, below-average performance with “SpaceEngine,” and flickering difficulties with “Emergency” have all been fixed by AMD.
