The AMD Driver Thread

since the season 3 update on MW2 my system is constantly crashing midgame but it got worse two weeks ago now iam lucky to play two rounds without eveything freezing with a constant sound

dont know if its the Rx6700xt or something else but it seems to be gpu drivers
 
Yer same, I ended up DDU loads of times plus I'm using Novembers drivers. Latest one are absolute trash. See the previous page, I had issues with having to reinstall the bloody things every time, I seem to have fixed that now.

I'm going to go out an a limb a say thats a hardware issues that this point. Hopefully I'm wrong though :)
Hardware or not, I don't think they would list it in the driver release notes unless they thought it was fixable. I hope it doesn't take too long, as the extra power consumption is becoming less tolerable as the weather heats up.
 
Just a heads up that I realised yesterday that Afterburner was no longer working on my 6800XT (I don't use the Adrenaline software) everything was greyed out and my OC profile wasn't loaded. Seems that Windows had updated my drivers but not sufficiently for Afterburner. Everything started working after I manually installed the drivers, and I've now disabled Windows from updating drivers as per the posts on the previous page.
 
^ I use this approach myself, but be aware that you can only modify group policy settings on Pro and Business editions of Windows 11, there is no Group Policy Editor in home editions.
I posted the link to the files and the instructions for adding GPE to home editions on a thread a couple of months ago. It takes two minutes at most with PowerShell.

Surely this should be a priority fix? Been an issue for months. 100W at idle isn't really acceptable with todays energy costs.
