Hello everyone !
I am very new in this forum, so I would like some clarifications if possible. December 18th, AMD released new drivers for bootcamp (19.20 and 19.30) I'd like to know if these are the "adrenaline 2020 edition" or they're older versions?
second question, i play Fortnite with WHQL 18.50, will I see a difference in fps with the 2020 edition? Thanks 🙏

Thanks 🙏 Those Apple drivers are based on November AMD drivers so are not Adrenalin 2020 editions. And for fortnite the answer most probably is yes but depends what graphics card you have.

I read that there were a lot of bugs on the 2020 edition knowing that I am not used to modifying the settings, generally I put everything in "performance", would I have more or less the same bugs or are these very specific settings that create these bugs? sorry for disturbing you.. ps; what's the différence between blue and red gaming ? i have ton install the red one for only gaming ?

Adrenalin 2020 when it was first came out had many bugs yes but this one is based on the newly released update which fixes a lot of bugs. You may still encounter some though.

After some gaming and benchmarks, this card is basically the equivalent of a mobile 1060 or an AMD RX 480. Pretty impressive and should handle most games max settings with at least 30 FPS.
What’s even more impressive is that AMD has brought anti-lag and GSYNC-like tearing reduction that works on Mac displays.
Not only that, you can even reduce your desolation and tick on AMD Image Sharpening to make your graphics comparable to native resolution. This allows you to reach 60 FPS without games looking blurry.
Probably the best MacBook for gaming ever released thanks to these drivers.

Thanks, can't mess with my setup tonight but will do some testing over christmas. The "beta" version you previously released for MBP 16 is still working great for me, outside of some sleep/hibernate/wake issues.
I made a thread elsewhere but maybe in the wrong spot... but where do you go to disable auto-updates from AMD? I can't find the option anywhere, but the readme strongly recommends it.

Just last year, I thought Apple lost their direction by having an unreliable keyboard and suffering from throttling issues, but they're really listening now. AMD is hopping on and making them up-to-date now. However, I still need more to be convinced to upgrade. ProMotion, higher brightness, and miniLED when?!

Edit: Okay you also posted on macrumors so you've got a 5500M 8GB
