Harder, better, faster, stronge.

AMD released Radeon Software Adrenalin Edition 18.3.1 late on March 19 with support for Final Fantasy XV Windows Edition (go.pcworld.com/ffxv) and Warhammer: Vermintide 2 (go.pcworld.com/whv2). Providing day-one drivers for such hotly anticipated games proves yet again that Radeon has left its dark days of buggy, late software far in the rearview mirror, but newfound optimizations for e-sports games are even more intriguing.

Radeon Software Adrenalin Edition 18.3.1 marks the debut of Project ReSX (“Radeon eSports Experience”). “The goal of this project was to optimize the performance of some of the most popular PC games in the world on Radeon graphics cards (go.pcworld.com/ rxgc),” AMD says. The company worked with developers for in-game optimizations, and tweaked its drivers to support the initiative.

The result? Faster, smoother gameplay, AMD claims.
