Technology media Windows Latest reported that the biggest highlight of the new version of Ryzen 6.05.28.016 update is the support for WDDM 3.2.
The full name of WDDM is Windows Display Driver Model, which is Microsoft's new-generation graphics driver program model. AMD initially supports WDDM 3.2 in this update.
WDDM 3.2 introduces several changes, especially optimizing the use of GPU and NPU in cloud scenarios.
