Neben den Optimierungen für die neuen Grafikkarten sowie einem erweiterten Support für Vulkan wird auch WoW: Shadowlands unterstützt.

Erster Treiber für die Radeon-RX-6000-Serie

Mit dem Adrenalin 2020 Edition 20.11.2 hat AMD den ersten offiziellen Treiber für die Radeon RX 6800 XT und RX 6800 veröffentlicht, der abseits von Optimierungen für die Vulkan-API und World of Warcraft: Shadowlands (Systemvoraussetzungen) aber wenig Neuerungen mitbringt.
