Anyone tried the newest driver in The Division? The last couple have been giving me these weird rainbow colours over the models in DX12.

Anyone finding a Wattman crash/reset on every boot since the Win 10 Creators update with 17.4.2 ? Seems to also happen on 17.4.1 which was fine before the Creators update.

Yep, pretty much without fail, not that I was using Wattman to change anything from default. But I seem to recall this is a known issue with R9 390s currently.

I still have the problem.

@AMDMatt any ideas on this? Is it something the team are aware of? I've had this Issue since 17.2.2 I think. DX12 in the Division, on a R9 Fury, with or without Freesync. Dx11 is fine.

Since upgrading to a Sapphire RX480, Ive had issues with various versions of drivers. ie bsod & driver crashes. (Probably stupid question, but) If I got the drivers from the Sapphire website would they be the same as if I got them direct from AMD??

Always use the ones from ATI. If you use the ones from Sapphire you'll never get updated drivers

Thanks. Because Im having problems I thought their drivers might work better.

I am noticing that the frame rate target control is stopping my games from running. These games are bf1, bf4 and black ops 3.

Any idea why this has started to happen?

Still not looking good with constant reports of issues:

Oh well, guess I'll be sticking with 16.11.5 again.......

I rolled back to 16.11.5, my initial impression 7 Days to Die was fixed for the first time in the 17.x series was mistaken. Rollback to the 16.11.5 and all good again.

Freesync seems broken again for me on 17.4.3 in some ubi titles, the usual offenders such as The Division. Haven't touched display scaling but i checked and it was 100% just in case. Besides this however the performance has been great and no issues.

Are you having any DX12 issues like this in Div on the new driver?

No corruption at all and smooth performance using DX12. That said i did crash a few times to desktop but i was running what i thought was a stable overclock. Now im not so sure.

Hmm I wonder why I have that issue on anything after 17.2.1. Fine in dx11

Seems like disabling the 120 frame limit mostly gets rid of the corruption

Well that seems odd for a built in frame limiter to do that. Maybe its indirectly pointing to something else as the cause.

Lowering render scale seems to make it worse too. My frame times are all over the place in dx12 too. Stuttering now and then.

If I were you I would format C: my pc and reinstall windows. The latest driver should not cause this. I have a friend who has the Fury X himself. Ill ask and see if he is having issues as well.
