Graphics drivers are an indispensable software component that enables a graphics card to function properly, and to utilize the hardware to its maximum capacity. AMD has launched their new Radeon Adrenalin 21.1.1 drivers targeted primarily towards the Radeon 6000 series. How does that affect you? AMD has introduced optimization and support for Hitman 3 and Quake II RTX.  If you are running the Radeon 6800XT, they have promised upto 10% performance uplift in Hitman 3 at 4k! For a single graphics driver update, 10% is a massively impressive number which can make the difference between a playable and an unplayable game @4k.

Radeon Software Adrenalin Edition is designed to give gamers deeply immersive gameplay, inspired by today’s era of massively multiplayer games. You can find the new Radeon Adrenalin 21.1.1 driver here. In the following page, all you would need to do is enter your device’s hardware details and the Operating System it is running. Consequently, download the Adrenalin 21.1.1 driver, double-click on the setup file and follow the on-screen instructions to fully install the driver and enjoy the massive performance boost!

AMD has been hard at work launching a host of new products over the span of a few months, completely altering the status quo of the industry. Towards the end of 2020, AMD launched the hotly anticipated Ryzen 5000 desktop chips which are currently the fastest chips you can buy. Following up very closely, the Radeon 6000 series graphics cards were launched featuring the RDNA2 architecture, better known as Big Navi, also one of the fastest GPUs you can currently purchase. During CES this year, AMD launched the Ryzen 5000 mobile processors as well, introducing the fantastic performance of the Zen 3 architecture into the laptop space.

With very fast and capable hardware already introduced to the market and hugely in demand, AMD has updated their graphics drivers as well to utilize the capability of said hardware to the fullest extent. Here is a summary of the changes AMD has brought about with the current driver over the previous version- 20.12.1.
