HDR Ready

High Dynamic Range (HDR) is a state-of-the-art technology for gamers and cinephiles that care deeply about the display quality of their TV or monitor. Modeled after the acuity of human vision, HDR vastly expands the range of colors and contrast ratios that can be shown by compatible displays. HDR-ready games and movies played on an HDR display appear strikingly sharp, colorful, and vivid, with enhanced contrast and sophisticated nuance compared to even the most stunning SDR content.

Next-Gen Display Engine

AMD XConnect Technology

Now it’s easier than ever to connect and use an external Radeon graphics card. With AMD XConnect technology, external GPU enclosures configured with Radeon Graphics can easily connect and disconnect to a compatible ultrathin notebook or 2-in-1 over Thunderbolt 3 at any time, just like a USB flash drive - a first for external GPUs.

Game-Changing Control

Push your hardware to the limits with Radeon WattMan (formerly AMD Overdrive) for a whole new level of customization and per state control over clocks, voltages, and temperature. Radeon Software drivers enable the ultimate in performance, features and stability and will improve with future up-to-the-minute enhancements, updates and optimizations.

* AMD’s product warranty does not cover damages caused by overclocking, even when overclocking is enabled via AMD hardware.

Premium Game Streaming

Radeon GPUs based on the Polaris architecture are a dream for anyone that’s serious about streaming and recording their favorite games: 4K, H.265, 60 FPS, virtually no performance impact.
