As per Microsoft, they have partnered with AMD to invest in and improve the experience for PC gamers. This partnership expands with the first rollout of Advanced Shader Delivery across AMD’s RDNA discrete GPUs and Integrated GPUs.<\/p>\n

One of the first titles to bring Advanced Shader Delivery to AMD RDNA GPUs is Forza Horizon 6, which benefits from the technology by reducing load tiles by 95%. AMD RDNA GPUs running Forza Horizon 6 are able to load the game in just 4 seconds versus 1.5 minutes before ASD. The system used to evaluate this featured an AMD Radeon RX 7600 GPU and an AMD Ryzen 7 5800 CPU with 8 Zen 3 cores.<\/p>\n

ASD not only brings faster load times, but also reduces shader stuttering. This results in a much better gaming experience. The best part is that ASD comes to all RDNA GPUs starting with RDNA 1, RDNA 2, RDNA 3, RDNA 3.5, and the latest RDNA 4 series. The following are the system requirements for running Advanced Shader Delivery on your AMD RDNA GPU:<\/p>\n
