The AMD Catalyst Omega driver enables unparalleled display performance for professionals and gamers who require the highest resolution available with support for this new breed of displays.įrame-pacing enhancements have been implemented in prior AMD Catalyst drivers to bring a smoother gameplay experience to users of AMD Crossfire Multi-GPU graphics configurations. This feature makes your 1080p video content look even better when displayed on an Ultra HD (4K resolution) display. The AMD Catalyst Omega driver brings this existing feature to AMD APU products. This feature improves the sharpness and clarity of compressed and low resolution content when it's played on a 1080P display. This feature implements an improved algorithm for compressed videos which removes compression artifacts without disturbing video details. Performance benefits are shown here for an AMD Radeon R9 290X graphics card, comparing the AMD Catalyst Omega driver to the launch driver for that product – AMD Catalyst driver 13.12. Performance Optimizations for Gaming on Discrete GPUsĪMD Catalyst Omega driver also provides significant performance benefits for gamers who use our AMD Radeon Discrete GPU products. This feature uses GPU compute to interpolate inferred frames with real frames and increase overall video frame rate and smoothness when watching Blu-ray content. Effectively, VSR provides a Super Sampling Anti-Aliasing (SSAA) feature for the games and applications that do not natively support that functionality. When this feature is enabled, Virtual Super Resolutions beyond the native resolution of the display device will be available in a wide variety of games and applications, including the Windows desktop. This technology allows a user to improve visual quality in games and other content by rendering at a very high resolution (up to 4K) and then displaying that content at a lower resolution supported by the available monitor. VSR is game- and engine-agnostic solution. Here is a list for the new features the Catalyst Omega drivers offer. AMD states that you can expect up to 19% more performance than the previous driver (Catalyst 14.11.2) when running games on high-end graphics cards, and up to 29% more performance on APU-based systems. The Catalyst Omega driver boasts some serious performance improvements in many hardware configurations due to a more efficient design.
