Calling all fellow AMD Shills! Long awaited replacement for Crimson is coming soon.
AMD RELIVE Update coming Dec 8. Article from WCCF. Yeah I know but this has been confirmed by several others this is just the best article I found and AMD always released big updates around now so it makes sense.
Highlights for the lazy

AMD Loom: Similar technology to Ansel
AMD RELIVE: Essentially AMDs take on Shadowplay although seemingly with more functionality.
AMD Chill: Dynamically scales performance and power usage based on in game movement.
VR Enhancements
DisplayPort and FreeSync Enhancements
TressFX enhancements
Wattman now available for all GCN 1.1 products back to the 200 series
Been updating fairly regularly and have not had any noticeable regressions yet. All been on the up and up so that's nice
Did you not like crimson? I know it is a bit half assed with the "advanced" menus just being the old Catalyst menus. But overall it actually worked well, looked nice and kept bringing improvements in performance all the way back to 7000 series.
For as much shit people give the Fury with only 4gb of Vram, my brother is still on a 7850 1gb and still playing up to stuff like Killing Floor 2. Have not encountered a single game that gave out about it or even crashed because of it. That is just an aside but interesting to me all the same.
What gave you that idea? I really liked Crimson. Better than nVidia's offerings for sure and I like the way it looks and the functionality.
I said "long awaited" because many were speculating when the next major evolution would release and people were expecting it quite soon. Not because Crimson was bad just because people were excited about what they were doing next since it seems AMD is doing this yearly major update thing now
Ah yeah it was then "long awaited" part that got me. I am kind of default to people talking shit about AMD as well now. So I read things coloured, even from fans.
But yeah I am looking forward to this. Would be nice as well next year to go zen too but I don't want first gen.
