By removing frame queuing and instead presenting frames synchronously, Chill can cool your card down and still run games slickly. Built using tech sourced from HiAlgo after its acquisition by AMD’s earlier this year, Radeon Chill dynamically regulates framerates to drop your GPUs clock speed when less processing power is required. On the software front, the most interesting new addition – from a performance perspective – is Radeon Chill, a tool which monitors and regulates card temperature in order to boost performance. The introduction of multi-render technologies also means single-card setups can run VR more effectively too. The addition of Crossfire compatibility means that developers can either have each card render an image for each eye, or set one card to render visuals while the other handles 3D audio. Performance boosts aside, Crimson ReLive is also helping developers improve VR experiences for Radeon users thanks to its rather nifty Liquid VR tech. Radeon is claiming these performance gains are comparable to upgrading your card to a new piece of hardware, which isn’t bad for a free update. Performance improvements will vary from title to title, but it’s clear to see that Crimson ReLive is making a significant difference. Overwatch sees a 6% improvement, with Ashes of the Singularity jumping up by 8%. Running Deus Ex: Mankind Divided on a RX 480 under Crimson ReLive will, apparently, give you a 4% performance boost over running it on the same hardware using Crimson Edition 16.6.2. But what exactly makes Crimson ReLive so great compared to previous driver updates? Well, alongside the general stability improvements, it adds a tonne of new features, bug fixes, and some impressive performance gains. According to findings from Jon Peddie Research, “more gamers play on Radeon graphics than Intel and Nvidia combined,” meaning Crimson ReLive update has the potential to improve the performance of a lot of computers.
