AMD clarifies its clarifications on controversial RDNA 1 and 2 driver note — company will continue game optimization support after all

AMD has addressed user concerns and confusion regarding its decision to put Radeon RX 5000 and 6000 series cards in "maintenance mode," clarifying that game optimization support for RDNA 1 and 2-based drives will continue. The company faced backlash after releasing a driver update with errors in the release notes, including incorrect information about RX 7900 cards. Despite initial plans to limit support, AMD has now reaffirmed its commitment to providing game support, stability, optimizations, and bug fixes for older GPUs. The decision to separate drivers for different GPU series aims to streamline development for future releases while maintaining stability for older models.
