AMD has released its new AMD Catalyst 15.7 Driver, promising seamless support for Windows 10 and DirectX 12 across compatible AMD APU and GPU solutions.
The AMD Catalyst driver will be fully integrated with Windows 10 as part of the Windows driver update component.
AMD enabled features include:
- Ability to stream content at the highest resolutions (4K and beyond) thanks to hardware-based HEVC decoder
- Activating Microsoft DirectX 12 and AMD’s Freesync Technology will help make your games look great on your AMD-based PC running Windows 10
- Responsive resume times powered by AMD and Windows 10 let you spend less time waiting and more time doing because your PC wakes up from sleep quickly.
- Window Display Driver Model (WDDM) 2.0 works with Windows 10 to reduce the driver workload on graphics hardware. Display modes can be changed quickly and without the bothersome flicker that Windows users had to endure in the past.
“We are thrilled to deliver our latest driver upgrade, making customer experiences with Windows 10 and AMD even more entertaining and intuitive than ever,” said Ari Rauch, corporate VP, Software Development for AMD. “The AMD Catalyst 15.7 driver enables a refined user experience, with better gaming, better streaming and video quality, and incredible efficiency, taking AMD’s Graphics Core Next (GCN) state-of-the-art architecture to the next level.”
