AMD has released a new non-WHQL driver update for Radeon graphics users, addressing performance issues in Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 and Black Myth: Wukong. The update also introduces Vulkan API support for AMD Radeon Anti-Lag 2, enhancing latency reduction for games like Counter-Strike 2.
AMD is reportedly moving away from entry-level Radeon RX 7000 Series GPUs and focusing all efforts on the next generation RDNA 4 architecture. This means no Radeon RX 7400 or 7300 GPUs will be released, and AMD’s partners are already developing and testing RDNA 4-powered Radeon RX 8000 Series cards. While the potential entry-level RDNA 3 GPUs might have been appealing for budget builders, the shift to RDNA 4 promises significant performance upgrades and a major boost in ray-tracing capabilities.
AMD is gearing up for Gamescom 2024 with an event scheduled for August 23rd, raising anticipation for potential hardware reveals. While rumors suggest that the next generation of Radeon GPUs (RDNA 4) might debut at CES 2025, the Gamescom event could offer a sneak peek. Additionally, AMD might unveil new X3D variants of its Ryzen 9000 Series CPUs, designed for gaming performance.
AMD is giving away two new PC games, Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 and Unknown 9: Awakening, with the purchase of select Ryzen 7000 series CPUs or Radeon RX 7000 series GPUs. The deal is valid for both desktop and laptop products and runs from August 6th to October 5th, 2024.
AMD is expanding its Radeon RX 7000 series with the addition of entry-level RX 7400 and RX 7300 graphics cards. These cards will utilize the Navi 33 chip, offering features like dedicated AI acceleration and hardware AV1 encoding, aiming to provide a competitive alternative to the GeForce RTX 3050 in the entry-level market.
AMD has launched Amuse 2.0, a local AI image generation tool that leverages Stable Diffusion models and runs on AMD Ryzen AI 300 Series processors and Radeon RX 7000 Series graphics cards. This user-friendly app, developed with TensorStack, offers text-to-image, paint-to-image, and AI filter creation capabilities, making it ideal for content creators and anyone looking for a fun way to generate images.
