AMD Reposts Radeon 20.1.3 Beta as WHQL

Posted January 31, 2020

AMD has just re-released Radeon Software 20.1.3 as WHQL. These drivers are identical to the Adrenalin 20.1.3 Beta drivers posted earlier this month, with the only difference being WHQL certification. It looks like AMD’s driver team is hard at work fixing the various issues reported. 20.1.3 WHQL is an important release as it now gives RX 5600 XT owners a WHQL driver — previously they had to resort to beta drivers to power their new purchase.

Radeon Software Adrenalin 20.1.4 Beta was released just days ago and does include additional changes that aren’t integrated in 20.1.3 WHQL yet, because Microsoft’s WHQL certification process takes some time. A few days ago we reported that AMD silently patched a driver security issue with 20.1.1 Beta, maybe that’s a reason, too, why we’re seeing a WHQL version today.

The Radeon Software Adrenalin 2020 Edition 20.1.3 WHQL drivers are available online at the AMD driver download page.
