Several times during our testing, we had to clean the drivers using DDU because the ReLive options would not show up in Radeon Settings, or they would, but recording would not start. Here, just like with Chill, the feature still seems a little buggy and unpolished UI wise. With performance costs well under 5% in most cases, AMD has made streaming/recording of gameplay practically free (of overhead). We're particularly impressed at just how little performance is affected when you're gaming at a high resolution and with juiced-up details, and while you're recording/streaming at a different resolution (or even the same resolution). NVIDIA has had a huge headstart in maintaining a feature like this, although AMD's implementation is reasonably functional. It's never too late, though.ĪMD ReLive is another surprise. Something like this right alongside this year's "Polaris" hardware launches could have helped AMD in a big way. I'd like to think of myself as a serious enough gamer to know if my hardware isn't behaving well enough to my gameplay and am happy to report that while the feature could do with a little more polishing on how to enable and control it, it does simply work, and we have the data to show for it. How this thing lowers temperatures and power draw without noticeably affecting gameplay is amazing. The most striking new feature, in our opinion, isn't ReLive, but Radeon Chill. The new features add tremendously to the overall value proposition of AMD's Radeon brand. There's only a few percent in the way of performance improvements, but that's hardly a complaint from us. The Radeon Software Crimson ReLive Edition (16.12.1) gives your AMD Radeon hardware a huge boost in features and functionality, breathing a new lease of life into the 2-3 year old high-end hardware some of you are still holding on to. ConclusionAMD has done it once again with its year-end software bonanza.
