AMD is asking for feedback from its graphics card owners and wants to know which features are most important to them, possibly to help jumpstart work on the Adrenalin 2020 Edition graphics driver in the future. The company has already run this type of request for feedback, where a survey presents several options and you have to check which features you want most (yes, you can choose more than one). Once the results are complete, AMD presents the current state of affairs so you can see what everyone is voting on and what functionality is most in demand today. And what could it be? As of this writing, here are the features listed in order, with the percentage of votes they got:
- Fan control improvements: 53.1%
- Minimum Radeon software installation: 50.5%
- Customize and disable / enable Radeon software features: 48.7%
- Crash reporting improvement to AMD: 39.4%
- Improved user problem reporting to AMD: 37.0%
- Radeon WattMan Endurance Test: 32.3%
- Improved FPS log for performance overlay (min / max / graphics): 27.5%
- More overlay tracking and metrics for processor: 23,6%
- Improved Radeon Boost handling: 23.2%
- Improved help and setup guides: 11.5%
AMD fans are fans of fans
So better fan control is at the top of the wish list, surprisingly beating out a minimal software footprint, though it's close to second (and would have been at the top not too long ago, you think). to disable (or enable) the features you want (and apply customizations to them) is in the third position, these three are at the top by some margin. The fact that fan control is in the first place certainly suggests that the type of players responding to the survey are more DIY-intensive types, which would make sense, as these people are more likely to disallow Pass. the opportunity to participate. your two cents regarding the direction in which the Radeon Graphics Driver should be headed. Another surprise is the fact that working on Radeon Boost is second lowest, with only better help guides doing it worse (which was never going to get it right) and another thought more tech types, rather than GPU newbies. or games, respond to this survey). Radeon Boost dynamically lowers resolution during fast-moving games and is designed to deliver a smoother frame rate in the heart of the fight, where you're unlikely to notice degraded visual detail. However, not everyone has welcomed Radeon Boost with open arms, with some claiming that it can produce some pretty dramatic frame rate changes (although this can be quite subjective and dependent on the game in question as well). Also, the functionality is still in its infancy, which looks promising, and with further work, with additional support for more games, Boost could be a very valuable piece of functionality, and we were hoping some additional players may think in this direction.
