After all of that testing, it is clear AMD is making strides in the right direction with its new May Preview driver. Performance in some cases improved dramatically – just take a look at Assassin's Creed Odyssey! – and the 1% lows definitely got the bigger boost across the board, which results in a smoother gaming experience.
As we saw though, this new driver alone isn’t enough for the 6800 XT to fully overtake the RTX 3080 when solely testing DX11 titles, but it is definitely a step in the right direction. The only real problem is, right now, these improvements only apply to RDNA 2 GPUs – so those with Vega or Polaris GPUs aren’t going to reap the benefits.
My personal inkling is that this Preview driver is AMD laying the groundwork for its upcoming RDNA 3 family, as the company knows it has work to do in older DX11 titles to really one-up Nvidia. We will have to wait and see about that, but right now, if you have an RX 6000 series GPU, this Preview driver is well worth checking out.
