Beginning with the release of Radeon™ Software Adrenalin 21.6.1 today, we are moving the following graphics products to a legacy model, with no additional driver releases planned. Their final supported driver will be Radeon Software Adrenalin 21.5.2.
Additionally, Radeon Software support for Windows 7 64-bit based operating systems have been moved to a legacy support model. Official end of support from Microsoft for Windows 7 was January 14th, 2020.
This change enables AMD to dedicate valuable engineering resources to developing new features and enhancements for graphics products based on our latest graphics architectures.
