It is important to understand that our graphics drivers are typically tailored for specific OEM platforms, so releasing generic APU graphics drivers across all AMD Ryzen mobile processor-based mobile systems could result in less-than-ideal user experiences. You have made it clear we have room for improvement on graphics driver updates for AMD Ryzen Mobile processor-based notebooks, both for APU-only platforms and discrete GPU notebook designs. A reason that laptops equipped with Ryzen Mobile have gotten so so far behind with driver updates is that the OEM or laptop manufacturer must approve and release these updates themselves. AMD says it can not release the updates themselves because of the specific hardware of each system, which could cause potential problems and unpleasant user experiences. The company responds to the criticism in a Reddit post and promises to improve the update policy together with the OEMs.įeedback is a critical part of how AMD delivers great products. In the past, AMD already promised to do better, and as far as I can remember it we've seen a driver update in May just before the Summer, but then again thereafter things stagnated. That has upset a number of people and on Reddit, like so often, things became a bit more explosive. And with the current state of gaming, that was annoying a lot of people. AMD Radeon Desktop GPUs get very regular updates, however, the APUs, OEM products and Laptop APUs rarely get updated. It has been a topic of discussion a couple of times already in the past year.
