Release note:
AMD HD 6000/HD 5000/HD 4000/HD 3000/HD 2000 Crimson Edition Graphics Driver version 15.30.1025 For Win7-64/Win8.1-64/Win10-64 released on 25th Dec 2015.
AMD has just released Radeon Software Crimson Edition, a new graphics software suite for Windows 7, 8.1, and 10. This new software collection replaces the old Catalyst and promises to bring much better gaming performance, a new interface built in Qt, and improved power consumption.
Radeon Software Crimson Edition, giving users an exceptional new user experience, 12 new or enhanced features, up to 20 percent more graphics performance, adjustability that can nearly double generational energy efficiency, and rock-solid stability across the full spectrum of AMD graphics products, AMD said in the official announcement.
The first thing that users will notice is the new interface, which provides a lot more than just access to the settings for the video card. A Game Manager has been implemented as well, an Overdrive option, better video, display and AMD Eyefinity technology sections, and a lot more.
The most interesting things are the performance enhancements that have already been announced. According to AMD and their internal testing, we should see up to 30% faster load times, 20% more game performance, and the increase in system performance-per-watt can go up to 23%, these are some huge numbers. AMD also introduced LiquidVR technology that should improve the FPS output for all GCN-based hardware tremendously, and they are also saying the product should be a lot more stable.
Compatible Operating Systems: Windows 10 64-bit

Radeon Settings:
-Radeon Settings is the new, streamlined user interface, engineered to bring out the best of AMD graphics hardware. User-friendly and feature-rich, Radeon Settings is lightning fast and starts upto 10x times faster1 than the previous AMD Catalyst Control Center. Radeon Settings provides a brand new game manager, improved AMD Overdrive options per game and new video, display and Eyefinity tabs.
New Install UI:
-The driver installer now provides a brand new, streamlined user experience with a reduced number of clicks required, providing better usability and an easy to install user experience.
Liquid VR:
-The AMD Radeon Software Crimson edition is the first publicly available driver that enables all LiquidVR features, which are currently being validated and tested by VR headset manufacturers and ecosystem partners.
Asynchronous Shaders:
-A feature that has been extensively used by game console developers is now available to PC Gamers. Asychronous Shaders break complex serial workloads into smaller parallel tasks, thereby allowing idle GPU resources to be used more efficiently and parallel workloads allow taskes to be completed much faster.
Shader Cache:
-The shader cache feature allows complex shaders to be cached, thereby resulting in reduced game load times, lower CPU usage and reduced stuttering and latency during gameplay2.
Optimized Flip Queue Size:
-The optimized Flip Queue Size provides users with the very latest keyboard and mouse positional information during gameplay to reduce input latency on DirectX 9 , DirectX 10 and DirectX 11 applications. This feature is a driver optimization, therefore it is automatically enabled and requires no user configuration or setup.
Freesync Enhancements:
-Minimum/Maximum display rate is now listed in Radeon Settings
-Low framerate compensation to reduce or eliminate judder when application FPS falls below the minimum refresh rate of an AMD Freesync enabled display
-New support for AMD Freesync with AMD Crossfire in DirectX 9 titles
Custom Resolution Support:
-This feature provides users more control over display capabilities allowing the user to create custom display profiles to attempt to drive their display with chosen resolution, timings, refresh rates and pixel clocks.
Frame Pacing Enhancements:
-Frame pacing support is now extended to DirectX 9 titles.
Frame Rate Target Control Enhancements:
-FRTC enhancements include: power saving capabilty, support for DirectX 9 titles and an extended range for target control (30 - 200 FPS).
Updated Video Feature support for Carrizo products:
-FluidMotion for smoothing playback of 24/30 FPS video using Cyberlink PowerDVD 15 for Blu©\Ray playback
-Improved edge enhancement for sharper images
-Improved de©\interlacing for interlaced content
Power Optimization:
-Improved power optimizations for video, gaming and FRTC enabled gaming environments (AMD Radeon R7 360, AMD Radeon R9 380, AMD Radeon R9 390 series and AMD Radeon Fury series).
Directional Scaling:
-Enhanced image quality for 1080p media content scaled to 4K resolution using adaptive directional filtering technology (AMD Radeon Fury products).
Dynamic Contrast Update:
-Qualative changes are now content adaptive and provides video enthusiasts with improved video quality and contrast settings (AMD Radeon R8 285, AMD Radeon R9 380 and AMD Radeon Fury products).
DisplayPort to HDMI 2.0 support:
-Provides full support for DisplayPort to HDMI 2.0 connections via certified dongles.
