The Radeon Chill feature enables savings in graphics card power consumption by adjusting the frame rate level dynamically based on the intensity of movement while playing the game. The lower the intensity of movement while playing the game the lower the use of electrical power graphics card.

Radeon Chill is claimed to reduce the use of electrical power graphics cards up to 60% compared not use it. Of course the working temperature of the graphics card also decreases with the lower power consumption.

In Radeon Software Adrenaline Edition 17.12.1, game support that accommodates Radeon Chill features is enhanced in number. The image above shows a row of popular game titles with massive numbers now supporting the Radeon Chill feature. Of course AMD with "happy" will add a long list of games that support the upcoming Radeon Chill feature release. Radeon Chill supported games that use the Vulkan API, DirectX 9, 10, 11, and 12.

The Enhanced Sync feature minimizes the symptoms of screen tearing as done by the VSync feature, but does not lock the frame rate at the monitor's refresh rate. As a result not only the symptoms of screen tearing are minimized but also input latency as well as stuttering.
