Now available as part of the Radeon™ Developer Tool Suite.
Meet the AMD Radeon™ Developer Panel (RDP), a key component of the AMD Radeon™ Developer Tool Suite. RDP provides the communication channel that delivers requests to, and receives data from, the AMD Radeon™ driver.
Download the latest version of the AMD Radeon™ Developer Tool Suite
- Latest version of RDP: v3.3
This release adds the following:
- Support for AMD RDNA™ 4 hardware.
- Support for additional AMD RDNA™ 3 APUs.
- Support for profiling non-frame-based pure compute DirectX® 12 and Vulkan® applications and requires AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition™ 25.3.1 or newer.
- Support for profiling DirectML applications and requires AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition™ 25.3.1 or newer.
- Driver Experiments is now supported on Linux and requires a 24.30-based driver or newer.
- New Hardware Crash Analysis option for capturing low level information about the GPU hardware during a TDR dump.
Benefits
- Capture AMD GPU crash dumps for post-mortem GPU crash analysis by AMD Radeon™ GPU Detective (RGD).
- Capture RGP profiles for GPU profiling by AMD Radeon™ GPU Profiler (RGP).
- Capture memory traces for GPU memory analysis by AMD Radeon™ Memory Visualizer (RMV).
- Capture raytracing scenes for analysis by AMD Radeon Raytracing Analyzer (RRA).
Bringing it all together
When RDP is connected to a Radeon™ Adrenalin driver it enables developer mode which allows it to generate event timing data used by the Radeon™ GPU Profiler (RGP), memory usage data used by the Radeon™ Memory Visualizer (RMV), raytracing scene data used by the Radeon™ Raytracing Analyzer (RRA), and GPU crash dumps used by Radeon™ GPU Detective (RGD).

Radeon™ GPU Detective (RGD) is a tool for post-mortem analysis of GPU crashes. RGD can capture AMD GPU crash dumps from DirectX® 12 apps.
Radeon™ Raytracing Analyzer (RRA) is a tool which allows you to investigate the performance of your raytracing applications and highlight potential bottlenecks.
The RDP provides a communication channel with the Radeon™ Adrenalin driver. It generates event timing data used by the Radeon™ GPU Profiler (RGP), and the memory usage data used by the Radeon™ Memory Visualizer (RMV).
Radeon™ Memory Visualizer (RMV) is a tool to allow you to gain a deep understanding of how your application uses memory for graphics resources.
RGP gives you unprecedented, in-depth access to a GPU. Easily analyze graphics, async compute usage, event timing, pipeline stalls, barriers, bottlenecks, and other performance inefficiencies.
Radeon GPU Analyzer is an offline compiler and performance analysis tool for DirectX®, Vulkan®, SPIR-V™, OpenGL® and OpenCL™.
