Same as NVIDIA, AMD also releases a new version of their Radeon Software Adrenalin today. The new 21.8.1 update is here to primary include the support for the freshly-launched RX 6600 XT graphics cards. It also repaired the issue of The Medium crashing when using the FrameView app.

We have attached the official release notes for the software below:

Support For
  • AMD Radeon™ RX 6600 XT Graphics
Fixed Issues
  • The Medium™ may crash after launching the game while running FrameView™.
Known Issues

  • AMD Radeon™ Software may crash or become unresponsive while playing some DirectX® 11 games such as PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds™ with multiple displays connected in extended mode.
  • Playing Horizon Zero Dawn™ for an extended period may lead to a driver timeout or game crash on some AMD Graphics products such as Radeon™ RX 6700 XT.
  • Enhanced Sync may cause a black screen to occur when enabled on some games and system configurations. Any users who may be experiencing issues with Enhanced Sync enabled should disable it as a temporary workaround.
  • Connecting two displays with large differences in resolution/refresh rates may cause flickering on Radeon RX Vega series graphics products.
  • Radeon performance metrics and logging features may intermittently report extremely high and incorrect memory clock values.
AMD Link for Windows Known Issues
  • Intermittent grey frame corruption might be observed when streaming with HEVC on certain configurations via an Internet connection. A workaround is to use the AVC encoding setting instead.
