RAMDisk for Gamers
AMD Radeon™ RAMDisk is a kernel-level driver that allows you to partition unused portions of system memory in order to create the ultimate virtual disk drive. This cost effective solution enables you to utilize as little as 5MB to a maximum of 64GB depending on how much system memory you have. The more you have, the easier it is to load complete applications from your memory in order to take full advantage of the accelerated loading times.
GET READY TO EXPERIENCE:
- Faster game/level loading
- Faster transitions between game zones – seamlessly enter and exit game areas
- Earlier spawning in competitive only game environments
- Virtually no lag on loading RAMDisk contents on system startup or shutdown1
- New! Simplified initial RAMDisk Creation interface
Learn more about AMD Radeon™ RAMDisk
AMD Radeon™ RAMDisk is designed to work with any AMD- or Intel-based platform with at least 512MB RAM and can be created using system RAM not already assigned to the O/S. Although RAMDisk is software, Windows Management treats it as a Hard Disk Drive. There is a chance that the disk may become fragmented much like a hard disk, however the performance issues are less than if a physical hard disk were to become fragmented. AMD plans to provide AMD Radeon™ RAMDisk support to future generation system memory specifications. AMD Radeon™ RAMDisk requires a minimum of 1GB of system memory for installation (minimum 4GB of RAM recommended for RAMDisk creation).

1Test conducted in AMD Labs using a timer to measure PC boot and shutdown times when RAMDisk is running using a licensed AMD Radeon™ RAMDisk (32GB/64GB) Version 4.1 versus 4.0. Version 4.1 booted at 81 secs and shut down in 23 secs. Version 4.0 booted in 256 secs and shut down in 525 secs. “Load in Background” and “Background” was enabled with Version 4.1.
