Just in time for your long weekend gaming sessions, AMD releases the Radeon Software Crimson ReLive 17.5.2 driver. This release promises a further up to 4.5 percent performance gain for Prey on the Radeon RX 580 8GB card versus the 17.5.1 driver. It also fixes a couple of issues with NieR: Automata, Forza Horizon 3 and system hangs when entering sleep or hibernate mode.
  • Prey: Up to 4.5% performance improvement measured on Radeon RX 580 8GB graphics when compared to Radeon Software Crimson ReLive edition 17.5.1

    Fixed Issues
  • NieR™: Automata may experience a random hang or application crash after short periods of gameplay.
  • Forza™ Horizon 3 may experience very long map/launch load times.
  • The primary display adapter may sometimes appear disabled in Radeon Settings while driving a display from the linked adapter in Multi GPU system configurations.
  • Radeon RX 550 series graphics products may experience a system hang when entering sleep or hibernate modes.

    Known Issues
  • Virtual Super Resolution may fail to enable on some Radeon RX 400 and Radeon RX 500 series graphics products.
  • The Display feature in Radeon Settings "GPU Scaling" may not function for some games.
  • A small amount of apps may still experience issues with Borderless Fullscreen mode and AMD FreeSync™ technology if other applications or game launchers are running on the primary screen in the background.
  • Counter-Strike™: Global Offensive and World of Warcraft™ may experience flickering or performance issues the first time the game is launched on a system boot with AMD FreeSync™ technology enabled. Workarounds include exiting and restarting the application or task switching (alt+tab) in and out of the game to fix the issue.
