AMD Launches Fusion Gaming Utility
written by Jake - January 20, 2009 13:15
AMD launched the first official version of its Fusion Gaming Utility. Working on AMD systems only, the Fusion Gaming Utility turns off various Windows processes and thus gains some additional performance when needed.

MD Fusion works with both Microsoft Windows XP 32/64-bit and Windows Vista 32/64-bit.
