The likes of the Nvidia Tegra and the Sony PlayStation have been priced at a premium, but have failed to challenge the dominance of AMD. The problem with the past couple of high profile AMD products, like the HD express and the Raaq, has always been that they were very specifically aimed at high-end PC gaming, with very little opportunities for gamers with a lower budget.

And while AMD will never directly state this, to better understand why this is the case, the GEA is very clearly meant to counteract the great popularity of GTX gaming notebooks. Does AMD plan to replace Gaming Evolved by beefing up the already superb Radeon Software Crimson, or leave Radeon owners without a dedicated GeForce Experience rival? Both seem equally possible.In a nutshell, the Gaming Evolved App(GEA) is AMD's attempt to add another value add feature to their top selling brand, the Radeon. (Raptr’s own client is a pretty great gameplay recording solution.) The real question is what this means for the future. The impact on you at home: AMD isn’t currently bundling any optimization or recording programs with Radeon drivers, so you’ll need to seek out replacements yourself to replicate Gaming Evolved features. Nevertheless, it appears the writing’s inevitably on the wall for AMD Gaming Evolved at the very time that Nvidia’s GeForce Experience is undergoing a massive evolution. And you can still find AMD Gaming Evolved references all over AMD’s website. It’s also still available via Raptr’s website, and Gaming Evolved has always mirrored Raptr’s main app, which is still going strong. As AMD’s statement said, the app still works if you’ve installed it previously. It’s not quite time to pour one out for Gaming Evolved. Previous builds of Radeon Software that include the 'AMD Gaming Evolved App' dated before September 12th 2016 will remain intact and will not be affected.” AMD will cease to undertake any compatibility testing, install support or general technical support for this application, nor will it be available through Radeon Software or its installer.

“Starting September 12th 2016, AMD is no longer bundling the 'AMD Gaming Evolved App' by Raptr with builds of Radeon Software. So Keith May of Wccftech asked AMD about it-and the company confirmed Gaming Evolved’s silent scuttling. That seemed awfully suspicious, especially given AMD’s recent silence around Gaming Evolved in an era where the Radeon Technologies Group is preaching about tight integration of hardware and software at every opportunity. But over the past few weeks, some gamers noticed that Radeon Crimson updates no longer included the AMD Gaming Evolved app.
