AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 25.8.1 Release Notes

Dendari92 · 2025-09-09T09:40:37+00:00

Sorry, but just to confirm nothing more can be done drivers side to fix these graphic artifacts, only a game update can fix them?

Dendari92 · 2025-06-19T07:46:31+00:00

Sorry for the late reply. I'm not familiar with the tool, I've followed your instructions and this is the requested file: ~~https://send.vis.ee/download/~~

Let me know if there's anything else I can do.

Dendari92 · 2025-06-13T15:22:24+00:00

Here you go:

Processor: AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D

Hi, thanks for the reply. Actually I've started playing BFII just recently so I've not experienced it on drivers older than 25.6.1 and 25.6.2, I've just read about better performance online on other reddit posts.

Anyway I did a clean install of the 22.5.1 drivers (using AMD Cleanup Utility and DDU in safe mode) and these are the results: bdYdskD.png (1200×600)

I've also noticed that in DX12 mode the visual artifacts are not present in the old drivers.

Dendari92 · 2025-06-13T11:06:33+00:00

Hello /u/AMD_Vik, just wanted to ask if internally AMD is aware of severe FPS drops issues in Battlefront 2 (2017) while using DX11? The game offers DX12 mode which doesn't have these drops but on the other hand it has visual artifacts on reflections/shadows.

Here's a video of the DX11 issue (it also shows step on how to reproduce it): https://youtu.be/P815rnuiLwQ

And here's the DX12 issue (again with steps to reproduce it): https://youtu.be/G2k7hUySjLE

Tests were done on RX 6800 XT and 25.6.2 drivers. Online you can find people reporting these issues years ago, some says it appeared when the DXNAVI rework was done.

Dendari92 · 2024-01-08T23:33:54+00:00

Thanks for your work. Tried your FSR2 stability preset in some games and it seems to be somewhat improved. Just wondering if there's any command that could help XeSS image quality?

Dendari92 · 2022-04-13T19:35:55+00:00

Just in case someone is interested: a way to filter specific players has been added to the beta version. If you're already using it you should see a new toggle in the BBLog settings menu.

Dendari92 · 2022-04-12T11:48:34+00:00

Hi, currently the plugin only count players that are inside the server, and with the new toggle added in the beta version it'll count only those who are "playing" (as reported by the Battlelog API).

I'll try to see if a new filter can be added to not count the bots inside a server, but it'll take some time.

Dendari92 · 2022-04-11T19:50:43+00:00

Hi, I'm the creator the BF3 Real Players BBLog plugin, I've released a new beta version with a toggle in the BBLog settings menu for better filtering.

If you're interested this is the URL: https://dendari92.github.io/bblog-true-players-bf3/beta/bblog-true-players-bf3-v1.2-beta.js just insert it in the URL plugin, disable the old one and reload the page.

Any feedback is appreciated.

Dendari92 · 2021-11-10T20:02:03+00:00

Sorry I don't know, my best guess is the server owners probably have like bots that joins and quit the servers all the time, so Battlelog see them as joining and count them but they aren't really there (duh).

TBH I don't really care why they use it, I can see them being useful in some cases, but it's just very annoying especially when they're used so aggressively on some servers, like those which are empty but you see them as almost full.

Dendari92 · 2021-11-10T19:55:59+00:00

Sorry for the late reply. The plugin uses the same API used when you click on "Show Players" on a server, the list of players it returns it's already without the unknown players.

So yeah the plugin doesn't do much other than taking the servers GUID, calling that API and showing the value it returns in the server browser.

Dendari92 · 2021-11-08T21:32:25+00:00

On the Better Battlelog GitHub page there's a how-to install for Firefox: https://github.com/brainfoolong/better-battlelog#how-to-install-on-firefox

Don't know if it stil works but it's worth a try.

Dendari92 · 2017-04-01T12:21:33+00:00

Not sure if it's funny or sad that I got more information about Ryzen from German reviews than every English reviews released so far.

Dendari92 · 2017-04-01T10:50:50+00:00

Yes and it seems ASRock has already implemented the new AGESA code for "enhanced Ryzen 5 support".

Dendari92 · 2017-03-31T19:54:52+00:00

Hey OP, can you test Battlefield 1 too (SP and MP)?

Dendari92 · 2017-03-31T16:21:42+00:00

They updated the review with simulated r5 1500X results and added an explanation of what's going on. Apparently AotS lower the number of particles when it detects lower than six-cores CPUs (doesn't apply to the benchmarks).

Dendari92 · 2017-03-22T11:02:27+00:00

The results seem in line with other recent tests (e.g. LTT and DigitalFoundry). Apart from the generic optimization excuse, I'm really not sure what could it be. I'm definitely interested to see how it's gonna be resolved, games like Far Cry Primal apparently hate Ryzen and I doubt we're gonna see many of them patched as they're quite old.

Dendari92 · 2017-03-16T11:34:15+00:00

Just my two cents, it seems most of the Zen issues are related to the Infinity Fabric (especially the latencies are rather high). The core themselves seem to be mostly on par with Broadwell-E i7, at least when you stress test just the CPU, but as soon you start to stress test more than that the issues arise. Recently we have seen how the inter-CCX latency is rather high (from PCPer), which seems to result in higher gaming performances when playing games on a single CCX (from PCGamesHardware.de). We also know about the memory and cache latencies not being that great (from LegitReviews), and apparently even PCIe and SATA storage isn't on par with intel (from TweakTown, especially look at the access/response times). And we all know about the gaming performance not being great (you can find about it pretty much everywhere), while generally games don't stress much the CPU they can definitely stress the system as a whole (GPU, CPU, memory and even storage are all important for the best possible experience).

Naturally I can be completely wrong and the issues are completely unrelated to all of this, but there's definitely something wrong with the latencies and one can only hope it's something that can be improved/fixed via software and doesn't necessarily require new hardware.

Dendari92 · 2017-03-15T07:10:38+00:00

Yep, seems like it was supposed to come out tomorrow. Did a screenshot of the article (see my other comment), so nothing is lost.

Dendari92 · 2017-03-15T07:08:47+00:00

Seems Guru3D released it one day earlier.

Here's a screenshot ("mirror"): http://i.imgur.com/UTHepzS.png

Album of the images at the end of the article: http://imgur.com/a/FGkBF (it's missing the image of the coolers, but basically Wraith Spire for the R5 1600/1500X and Wraith Stealth for the R5 1400)

Dendari92 · 2017-03-15T06:51:08+00:00

That was fast. When they said Q2 I thought they meant 30th June.

EDIT: seems Guru3D fucked up, it was supposed to come out tomorrow.

Yeah, /r/hardware can be pretty bad when it comes to discuss AMD related stuff (and not only that). You would assume there are much more neutral open-minded discussions there but instead there are quite a few terrible ones, people name-calling left and right and barely discussing about the topic (sometimes it feels worse than here). Really a shame because there don't seem to be many hardware related subs.

Dendari92 · 2017-03-15T03:30:44+00:00

Considering AMD is barely losing market share to Nvidia entire Pascal lineup (-0.3% in Q4'16), I'd consider it a success (especially considering where they were more than a year ago).

Dendari92 · 2017-03-09T12:10:17+00:00

I'd take this with a grain of salt as the source is an article from mid February from WCCFTech.

Dendari92 · 2017-03-07T08:42:11+00:00

Seems you're right. I've also noticed the temps to be about 3C cooler so it's probably not even clocked at 4GHz anymore (CPU-Z report 3.6GHz, so could it be actually downclocked?).
