AMD Radeon 22.7.1. OpenGL Optimisations Tested – Huge Gains!

AMD Radeon 22.7.1. OpenGL Optimisations Tested - Huge Gains!

Unigine Superposition

Superposition is Unigine’s newest benchmark, and again most users will be using this benchmark with the DirectX 11 API. That said, OpenGL is an available option, and when using OpenGL, we have seen some hige performance boosts with AMD’s Radeon RX 6800 graphics card. 

At 1080p High settings, our test system’s score increased from 13073 to 20124 with our Radeon RX 6800. That’s a performance increase of 53.9%. That’s huge, and the performance gains that we saw at 4K and 8k were equally impressive. 

With AMD’s new 22.7 1 drivers, our 4K Optimised performance was almost as high as the benchmark’s 1080p performance when using AMD’s older 22.6.1 drivers. To say the least, moving from 1080p to 4K is a big deal, so seeing AMD’s new drivers deliver 4K performance that’s similar to their old driver’s 1080p performance is a bug deal. That said, this benchmark’s high settings are higher than the benchmark’s optimised settings (not that you would notice the difference).
