AMD releases Crimson ReLive 17.4.1 drivers

More optimizations for virtual reality

Following the launch of AMD’s ReLive 17.3.3 WHQL drivers there is already a new update available. This release is supposed to add support for Asynchronous Spacewarp on the Oculus Rift and SteamVR Asynchronous Reprojection. On top of that support for DisplayPort 1.4 HBR3 and for 8K 30Hz/60Hz displays have been added. Last but not least AMD has fixed some issues related to Ghost Recon Wildlands and Multi-GPU configurations.
The latest version of the Radeon Crimson ReLive 17.4.1 drivers, fixes many of the issues that were present with version 17.3.3 WHQL drivers, like for instance issues with Multi-GPU configurations in Ghost Recon Wildlands. Furthermore AMD has improved the support for Oculus Asynchronous Spacewarp (ASW) on Radeon R9 Fury series, Radeon R9 390 series and Radeon R9 290 series graphics products. With this new update you should have a smoother VR experience on the Oculus Rift.

AMD has also improved the performance on SteamVR regarding the Asynchronous Reprojection on Radeon RX 480 and Radeon RX 470 graphics products on Microsoft Windows 10. As always, you can download the latest AMD Crimson ReLive drivers over at AMD's support page.
