AMD Adds RIS Support for Radeon Cards With Vega GPUs

Over two weeks ago, AMD added its brand new Radeon Image Sharpening (RIS) feature to the Radeon RX 570, RX 580, RX 590, RX 470, and RX 480 graphics cards. Today, AMD has expanded RIS support to the Radeon VII, RX Vega 64, RX Vega 56 and Vega Frontier Edition graphics cards. RIS uses an contrast-adaptive sharpening algorithm to improve crispness and clarity to in-game visuals that have been softened by upscaling and post-process effects. RIS works on DX12 and Vulkan titles with virtually no impact on gaming performance.

To enable RIS you’ll need to enable it in Radeon Software, so be sure to download and install Radeon Adrenalin Software 19.9.3 driver that came out today. In addition to adding support for RIS on more cards it is the launch driver for Tom Clancys Ghost Recon Breakpoint and has a couple bug fixes. Texture corruptions in Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice have been fixed as well as Discord application hangs that users of Radeon RX 5700 series cards were experiencing.
