Submit a bug report or make a thread on AMD forums. That's how the 144Hz problem was bought to their notice.

ltmatt i think it was said its expected not to downclock for reasons of refreshrate not being in the power of 2 like 30 then 60 then 120 etc, tho i call bull tbh as vega 56 downclocked ok at 75hz display refresh rate tho it had hbm2 memory and this is gddr6.
Yes it's to do with the vertical blank timing of the display.
If yours was going to downclock, it would be doing it in this new driver i think.

Check the benchmarks many people are reporting good perf increase in Timespy and even some in Port Royale.
Maybe you can get the Forza Horizon crown back.
nice will check it out this evening
I remember this happening way back when I had an ATI 1800XT. Caused uproar at the time.
uproar? I get it that it is annoying, I've experienced it myself, but it hardly makes my blood boil
. Just reinstall the chipset drivers thing and report the bug.
Hey there,
If you get a moment, please check in with Destiny 2 on our 21.6.1 release and let us know how it runs for you.
Cheers.
I don't have too much free time today. But I'll give them a try later.

No it really did when you uninstalled the driver (and this is Windows XP) it removed every single ATI .inf file which meant you could not install the ATI Video driver it just errored. People had to do a system restore or reinstall XP. Think of using DDU but instead of uninstall the drivers it basically made Windows XP not know anything about ATI hardware it removed it from the registry and everything. Obviously you are too young to remember.
You have obviously not been involved in a Nvidia/AMD drivers thread before
what about the time when Nvidia released a driver which caused the fan not to work and the card overheat ? Uproar doesnt come into it ! Radeon Software Adrenalin 21.5.2 WHQL

Separate versions for legacy, non-legacy and combined.
The driver package name shows as 21 May, although the drivers in the package are dated 16 June.

The short answer, they are much better for Destiny 2 than the previous drivers.
I changed from windowed mode to fullscreen where I was getting the most issues before. I encountered some hitching for the 20 minutes I played. So I restarted the game and played for another 20 minutes. And it was really smooth after the reset.
I'm very happy.
I was having the same issue. And I'm glad it is fixed now.

Ahhh, now it makes sense. Didn't know about that one...
I get the uproar now haha.

Just updated to the latest drivers, the memory on my 6800 XT is now downclocking at idle even when running at 240Hz on my Odyssey G7, despite previously being told the memory running at full speed was normal and expected behaviour. Not knocking anyone, just happy to see my idle power consumption reduced.
It was but does not mean it could not be changed, for single displays anyway.
The toggle for Smart Access Memory.
I feel dumb but I can't find this setting anywhere. Where is it?
My vram still doesn't downclock (144hz, 5700xt) but I've given up being bothered by this. One thing to note, the default profile location appears to have changed from AppData\Local\AMD\CN to AppData\Local\AMD\Radeonsoftware in case you cannot find your saved profiles!
GPU Tuning, but you need compatible hardware and your OS/BIOS configured as well for SAM to work.
