Radeon RX 9000 GPUs Officially Support UEFI Systems only, AMD Says
The latest Radeon RX 9000 series GPUs are optimized for UEFI BIOS only, limiting the potential of older systems to reach their full performance and feature capabilities. Only UEFI-based systems can utilize the latest technologies such as Smart Access Memory (Resizable BAR), enhancing gaming experience and efficiency. AMD's recommendation is to disable Compatibility Support Module (CSM) from the BIOS or UEFI menu to ensure optimal performance.
- The shift towards UEFI support in Radeon RX 9000 GPUs highlights the ongoing evolution of PC hardware, where compatibility and performance are increasingly tied to firmware standards.
- How will this trend impact the broader industry, potentially forcing other hardware manufacturers to adopt more advanced UEFI-based systems for future GPU releases?
