AMD Releases Radeon Software Adrenalin 21.8.1 Drivers

You can download the latest AMD Radeon Software Adrenalin from AMD’s website or via TPU.

AMD today released the latest version of Radeon Software Adrenalin. Version 21.8.1 Beta comes with support for the Radeon RX 6600 XT graphics card (which we reviewed here). It also fixes an issue with “The Medium” that caused the game to crash while running FrameView. The company also identified a handful issues, some even specific to the RX 6600 XT, such as inaccurate point-lights in “Control,” and driver timeouts observed in “Horizon Zero Dawn” with RX 6700 XT, and less specifically on RX 500 series products with simultaneous gaming+streaming. Grab the driver from the link below.
