The AMD Driver Thread

Anyone by chance know how to make a customer res inside the AMD driver control panel that actually works ? I'm trying to get 4K working on my 1440P ultrawide, Mainly for testing purposes, And it's simply not working.

Friend of mine who has the same screen but an Nvidia GPU did it no issue.

Could you not use super resolution to enable higher resolution options ingame?

Check the refresh rates also when setting up custom res as that might be whats causing issues. Possibly.

You can always try that monitor tool as well if drivers overide thing aint working fully.

Custom Resolution Utility (CRU)

Custom Resolution Utility (CRU) is an EDID editor that focuses on custom resolutions. CRU shows you how the monitor defines resolutions and other capabilities and gives you the power to change it. Add

I have used it quite a lot lately and had no issues.
You don't need to create a custom resolution you just enable VSR within the driver.

You will then have a list of resolutions to pick from.

If you choose to actually create your own res the will take trial and error because all displays are different.

Little bit of a PSA.

If you are running MSI afterburner + Riva tuner ( primarily Riva tuner running ) and updated to the last few AMD driver updates since I think May, can't recall then Davinchi resolve would crash.

For some strange reason this crash would occur since the last few updates from AMD but the older drivers from March or April would work but with Resolve update 19, if you used an older driver sometimes it wouldn't detect a GPU at all.

Recently just removed MSI afterburner and Riva Tuner ( luckily don't need it anymore ) and this will fix the problem but honestly, this isn't the first time I've had issues with MSI afterburner + Riva Tuner in general.

But @AMDVik, I also took the liberty if trying the Pro drivers for the 7800XT (the latest one), which actually install ( and actually runs a little smoother then the most upto date gaming driver ) but this also does not detect any GPU in Davinchi resolve free version and can't figure out why.

so far when it has come to the drivers, not had issues in game for some time but Resolve recently has been a right stickler of problems.

What to Know?​

AMD Fluid Motion Frames (AFMF) 2

AFMF is a state-of-the-art frame generation technology exclusive to AMD. It enhances frame rates and gameplay smoothness and is integrated into AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition™. As part of AMD HYPR-RX, our one-click performance solution, it delivers exceptional gaming experiences on AMD Radeon graphics cards.

  • How to Enable AFMF 2
    • AFMF 2 can be enabled for any OpenGLNEW, VulkanNEW, DirectX® 11, and 12 title using HYPR-RX or the AMD Fluid Motion 2 Toggle.
      • AFMF 2 is supported on AMD Radeon™ 700M and 800M integrated graphics, as well as AMD Radeon™ RX 6000 and RX 7000 series desktop and mobile discrete graphics cards.
      • AFMF 2 currently requires the game to be played in exclusive or borderless fullscreen mode with VSync disabled.
        • For a better visual experience, use AFMF 2 with a variable refresh rate-enabled display.
          • Enabling Radeon™ Chill after AFMF will automatically set the FPS cap to reduce tearing.
      • Use the in-game overlay (ALT+R) in AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition™ to check AFMF’s frame generation status.
    • AFMF 2 adds frame generation technology to boost FPS outside the game’s engine. Users can enable the AMD Software Performance Metrics Overlay to see the resulting FPS.
  • How to Optimize AFMF 2
    • AFMF 2 introduces new modes that are automatically tuned for the best experience based on your configuration. These can be manually adjusted to your preferences if needed
      • AFMF 2 adds a new “High” Search Mode setting for improved frame consistency during fast motion, enabled by default for resolutions of 2560x1440 and above.
        • This reduces the jittering or stuttering encountered with AFMF 1 at higher resolutions.
    • AFMF 2 adds a new Performance Mode setting to reduce frame-generation overhead, enabled as “Performance” by default for integrated graphics products.
      • Integrated graphics users may switch back to the “Quality” performance preset for better frame-generation quality during fast motion. The “Quality” preset is the default when using discrete graphics cards.
      • Users can manually enable this “Performance” mode on discrete graphics cards to hit even higher frame rates when GPU bound to maximize the FPS uplift.
    • Users can find these tuning options within the “Advanced View” of HYPR-RX.
  • AFMF 2 Support for Multi-GPU Configurations
    • For any hybrid-graphics configuration, AFMF 2 will use the displaying GPU for frame generation, allowing the render GPU to focus on the game.

Known Issues​

  • Intermittent performance when entering certain areas while playing DayZ. [Resolution targeted for 24.10.1]
  • Intermittent driver timeout or crash may be observed while playing Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 on some AMD Graphics Products, such as the AMD Ryzen™ AI 9 HX 370. Users experiencing this issue can enable Variable Graphics Memory in AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition as a temporary measure (AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition -> Performance -> Tuning -> Variable Graphics Memory).

Important Notes​

  • AMD is collaborating with the developers of Frostpunk 2 to resolve an intermittent issue causing in game flicker while using AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition Record and Stream.
  • AMD is collaborating with the developers of Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 to resolve an intermittent issue causing black flickering around certain water areas
