AMD Radeon Software Features
Now, let’s take a closer look at AMD’s Radeon Software information.
The new driver suite coming will be AMD Software Arenalin Edition 25.3.1. Some new features include AMD Radeon Image Sharpening 2 with stronger, more responsive sharpening that you can add to games or videos. This is now a 1-click operation that is no longer dependent on apps or APIs.
AMD has re-architected the video encoder on the Radeon RX 9000 series. This means improved quality of motion estimation and multi-frame reference, and it simply means better H.264 video encode quality. It supports up to 8K @ 75 FPS for HEVC and AV1.
AMD is introducing new AI-enhanced features to the AMD Software Adrenalin Edition, with some local easy-to-use AI features. There is a new AMD AI Apps Manager, a new AMD Install Manager, a new local AMD Chat, and an AMD Image Inspector tool for bug reports. The new AMD AI Apps Manager allows you to launch AI Apps directly from AMD software, which can report AI App usage and display select AI apps installed. The new AMD Install Manager allows you to setup your AI and PC ecosystem by automatically keeping user software up to date and has a fully customizable install setup.
The AMD Chat is interesting: a personal agent that is GPU-accelerated using a local offline chatbot with image generation. It can answer common questions about the user’s hardware or software and enable key Adrenalin features by simply asking the chatbot, and it is fully integrated into the AMD Software application.
Another very exciting new feature is this notion of using AI to improve driver quality over time from AMD. AMD Image Inspector is literally a tool built into the software that can capture when things like screen anomalies appear due to driver bugs. It leverages AI to detect corruption in gameplay, then captures and can send the diagnostic data to AMD as part of the AMD User Experience Program in an effort to squash game corruption bugs.
