Crimson Edition Graphics Driver?

[Aytex]

Is it basically AMD's geforce experience? (with amd's gaming evolved out of the question)

 

[PlayStation 2]

Yes and no. It's coming with a brand new control panel and a refreshed Gaming Evolved.

[TheRandomness]

You don't actually have to install Gaming Evolved (If you prefer not to)

oh, with some few performance tweaks correct?

From what AMD's hyping us on, this new control center is actually usable.

I fully uninstalled my previous drivers (using "Display Driver Uninstaller") and then installed this.
 

I feels like they dumbed down the options compared to the Catalyst control center, but I'm fine with that, I sure weren't using the more advanced features and this makes it easier to find what I want, and it actually works, especially the Display > Scaling Mode > Preserve Aspect Ratio (also need GPU Scaling enabled), which before with Catalyst I had to reduce my resolution to even have access to, change the setting and then go back to my proper res...

Crimson is not gaming evolved.
It's AMD new interface and driver, it has a new UI which works pretty fine for me and it's easy to use.

You still have CCC (catalyst), but it's accessible through Crimson (under Radeon Settings).

AMD Gaming Evolved is still optional, I don't use it, you don't need to use it either.

Anyone notice a performance benefit?

I never said it's gaming evolved I said without conpairing it with geforce experience

Not bad, thanks!

Just an FYI, Crimson fixed the FPS drop in Fallout 4 and added a new problem. Your compass will go completely bonkers when ever you hit a location that had FPS drops. Like disco bonkers. Not a problem with any of your mods, it's Crimson and they know about it.

i never had any fps problems in fallout 4, though i haven't gotten a increase in fps with the new driver

 

 

something that DID however fix was skype crashing my PC because of my drivers, now it works fine

Whenever the shadow distance caused major draw calls the fps would tank. Usually really bad in major cities or anywhere will a large line of sight which included shadows. What ever they did to fix the problem caused a problem with the compass.

 

If you're not running the shadow distance past Medium you'd never have an issue.
