With the new release of AMD’s Radeon Software Adrenalin 21.6.1 driver which brings FidelityFX Super Resolution to supported cards, it also relegates some of the company’s older products into unsupported land. Effective immediately, AMD is moving all of its 1st, 2nd, and 3rd generation Graphics Core Next (GCN) based GPUs and APUs to legacy status.
Moving to legacy status means that pre-RX 400 series video cards and pre-Ryzen APUs are no longer supported by AMD’s current drivers, and AMD’s previous 21.5.2 driver set will be the final release for those products. Radeon Software Adrenalin 21.5.2 will also be the final driver that supports Windows 7.
Here’s a list of GPUs that AMD will no longer be providing support for in it’s current drives.
