r/radeon on Reddit: Radeon Boost not working (properly?)
September 27, 2023 - Boost is enabled in Radeon Software, with max 50% resolution adjustment. Also, in Cyberpunk 2077, the only area I could tell it was doing something was the menus as the text would pixelate during movement (to be expected), however in-game nothing appeared to be changing and my FPS didn't change at all during movement.

r/AMDHelp on Reddit: why I don't have the option to enable Turbo Boost?
April 20, 2020 - Card is too old. Radeon Boost only works with RX400, RX500, Vega, R7 and RX5000 series GPUs, and with Ryzen 2000 and 3000 series APUs. ... I'm talking about Radeon VII, not the old R7 in the 200 and 300 series.

r/radeon on Reddit: Updates to Radeon Boost in Adrenalin have the quality settings swapped.
May 13, 2025 -

With new driver 25.5.1, some changes not mentioned on the patch notes were made to how to enable Radeon Boost in the Adrenaline App.

Previously upon enabling the feature you would choose 3 options on a slider that indicated how much resolution you wanted to scale by when moving the mouse.

However, now you simply choose between Quality and Performance. This change is nice since it streamlines the process and nobody ever used the option between the highest and lowest setting. Net positive.

But they kinda bonked the implementation and have them mixed up.

If you press Shift+Alt+L it brings up little green or orange dots in the top left corner of the screen and the amount of dots appearing at any given time indicate just how much resolution is being scaled. More dots means your scaling from a lower resolution, less dots means higher resolution.

Testing this new change on Destiny 2, I enabled Boost on Performance, the most dots i could get is 2. But when I swapped it over to Quality I was getting 4 dots. This means they have the modes swapped and it should be corrected.

I submitted a Bug Report regarding the issue and urge you to do the same so that this doesn’t go unnoticed and can be corrected by the Radeon Team.

r/FortNiteBR on Reddit: AMD Radeon Boost isn't working
April 11, 2022 -

I've done all I can think of to make it work, I've restarted my PC, reinstalled Fortnite, enabled Boost in global graphics as well as the Fortnite profile.
I can't get it to work. I wanted to see how the performance was but I can't.

In Warframe it works just fine.

Specs:AMD RX 570 4GB GPU, driver 22.3.2
AMD Ryzen 5 1600AF CPU
Patriot Viper Steel 2x`16GB 3600Mhz CL18 @ 3400Mhz CL16 RAM
Gigabyte B450M DS3H Motherboard

Platform is PC of course.

To reproduce, enable Radeon Boost for the Fortnite profile, min resolution % can be anything, restart game if needed, and launch Fortnite

I don't know if this should be a bug or tech support flair, but it seems more like a bug to me.

r/cyberpunkgame on Reddit: AMD Radeon Boost not working in Cyberpunk 2077
May 23, 2021 -

So I have been playing Cyberpunk on my RX580 8gb on a set framerate of 45 fps to have the best/consistent gameplay. Now I discovered the Radeon boost feature which seem kinda perfect for a even smoother experience.

Now here's the problem, it just won't work. AMD says CP2077 is supported, it also says its enable in the Radeon Software. But there's no Overlay in-game and not doing what it's supposed to do.

I'm guessing it has to do something with the game itself, since Radeon Boost works fine in the Witcher 3 (Boost overlay and everything).

May 17, 2021 -

I've been wanting to use the new upgraded Boost with VRS on Warzone, but I don't know if its actually using VRS. Supposedly with this new VRS upgrade, your UI/Menus shouldn't be affected by Boost, but for me they are.

my driver version is 21.4.1 which is supposed to have these features. Is anyone else able to test and see if they have the same issues?

e: running on a 3440x1440p monitor btw

e2: i tried it out in Fortnite BR and it actually works there, not sure why it isn't working on Warzone

I've reinstalled the driver using DDU but it's the same is this happening with anyone else or is it just me my specs below.

r/radeon on Reddit: What's the worst feature in AMD Adrenalin Software?
May 27, 2025 -

In my opinion, it's Radeon Boost.

For those unfamiliar with it:
Radeon Boost is an AMD graphics feature that dynamically lowers the rendering resolution during rapid on-screen movement to improve FPS while trying to maintain visual quality.

However, it has three major flaws:

  1. Just like FSR, it requires developer-side implementation. And let’s be honest — even FSR 3.1 isn’t widely supported yet. So expecting broad support for Radeon Boost? Yeah, good luck with that.

  2. The image quality drops noticeably, even with only minor camera movement. It doesn’t just kick in during fast motion — it activates too aggressively.

  3. And most importantly, the performance gain isn't worth the trade-off. You lose a lot of visual clarity, but the FPS increase is barely noticeable — if at all.
