The AMD Driver Thread

@AMDMatt - Do you know if Enhanced Sync will reappear in the next driver update ? It was quite a nice feature to have.

Wait and see, but yes we're aware of this bug and it was not intentional.

Are you saying the other bugs are intentional sorry had to be done.

Can you list another type of bug that was originally a feature?

EDIT

Sometimes the way i answer things is to counter the next potential question. Guess I've been working here long enough now to see the next question before it is asked based on my answer, if i don't word something carefully.

I knew what you meant, couldn't resist. Get the same thing where I work as development manager

Well, that's just in time. My replacement from my RMA'd one has literally just arrived. Seems I must be one of the "2 lucky ones"

Enhanced Sync still missing from the V-Sync drop down men

 

[locodice]

Not to much going on with this driver...only the mGPU / CF support...

Try clean install

• The drop-down option to enable Enhanced Sync may be missing in Radeon Settings on Radeon RX Vega Series Graphics Products. A clean install of Radeon Software can prevent this issue.

17.9.2 drivers just released guys.

 

[calken]

I tracked the driver release cadence for AMD since the beginning of the year and they look like they release every two weeks:

 

[LeJosh]

I'm really hoping there will be a megaton driver at some point really bringing the 64 to life.

When does the 'fine wine' reach full maturity?

 

[DragonQ]

I barely have time to play at the moment let alone try new drivers. Looks like the Overwatch crashing bug is acknowledged as a known issue now but the performance issues are not. Maybe it's just a general performance regression that is only noticeable for those with older platforms like me?

 

[LeJosh]

For some reason 9.2 made the latest doom crash on start up for me, reverted back to 9.1 for now.

Your kidding right?
at least a year from now, likely 2.
the driver issues will continue due to infinity fabric is messing things up.
crossfire/sli will be bad for 90%+ of games.
why buy two Vega and burn your computer?

I still debate to buy Vega or not due to the power requirement is simply put, a big fail.
Raja got work to do with navi, no time for family.
if he wants to keep his job.

 

[LeJosh]

I guess I am kidding, I don't feel so burned by it because I paid the £450.

Fixed it, I didn't read properly
