AMD 19.10.2 Beta Drivers Offers Big Call of Duty MW Boost

Call of Duty Modern Warfare is officially out right now and, as such, I guess many of you are either already playing it or have plans to jump in at some point today! With the release of the latest AMD drivers, however, owners of the Radeon 5700 XT graphics card can expect to see some big optimizations on offer to get that game (and many others) running as smoothly as possible!
