The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - AMD Performance DLL v.1.0.40 - Game mod - Download

AMD Performance DLL is a mod for The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, created by GeraltOfBolivia.

Information:

These files are taken from the latest Windows 10 AMD 1036 drivers (found at the Guru3D forums). They seem to offer significant performance increase even in DirectX 11 games, despite being built around DirectX 12. This means that games such as Witcher 3 can already benefit from these improvements! I have a single r9 290 and with these files I gain just over 5fps overall and even up to 10fps in some CPU-intensive areas.

The performance improvements will likely be seen more on lower-end CPUs as these drivers allow the GPU to use more draw-calls, thus allowing the GPU and CPU to communicate better with each other!

I recommend benchmarking the game in an intensive area (e.g Hierarch Square or Ford Forest) with and without these files. This way you can easily see if you gain any performance improvements. It may not work for every AMD card, I have only tested it on a couple of systems however they did all have relatively new hardware.

Installation

Extract the 4 .DLL files to your Witcher3.exe location (e.g. D:\Games\Witcher 3 The Wild Hunt\The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt\bin\x64). In

order to work they must be in the same folder as "Witcher3.exe".

Uninstallation

Simply remove or delete the 4 .DLL files from the Witcher 3 directory.
