![]() ![]() ![]() Things look a bit better for Radeon Vega owners. Our 22-game-strong test suite showed FPS increases for only very few titles: Devil May Cry 5 sees a solid 5% improvement, and we could also spot tiny upticks in Tomb Raider and Gear 5 at 1080p, but all the other titles are just as fast as before at least there is no performance loss with the new drivers. On average, at 1080p resolution, Polaris (RX 590) saw no performance improvement (below 1%). It's not good behavior when you "abandon" your product on the software side this soon. We deliberately chose the RX 590 to represent the "Polaris" generation because it's just a year old in the market (launched November 2018). We weren't expecting much for the RX 500 "Polaris" family, but even RX Vega series are excluded from performance benefits. On the flipside, only "Navi" seems to truly benefit from these improvements. Performance increments through driver updates alone are a rarity as both AMD and NVIDIA release drivers to coincide with game launches for the best performance, and yet we noticed some broad-spectrum performance improvements. AMD Radeon Software Adrenalin 2020 added or improved an impressive 20 features, while also improving performance across the board for the Radeon "Navi" family of GPUs. With consumer interest in these cards on the rise, the year's annual Radeon Software Adrenalin release grows in prominence. The "Navi" family of GPUs is small, but will grow in the coming weeks or months. Value and Conclusion2019 has been an important year for AMD as it introduced a graphics hardware lineup that made huge strides to catch up with NVIDIA's offerings in not just performance, but also energy efficiency.
