The AMD Driver Thread

[EastCoastHandle]

He isn't the AMD rep around here anymore.

I didn't know that.
Do we have someone else from AMD that could assist?

New drivers are out if you check for updates via the software. 19.8.2 Nothing on the website yet though.

EDIT : Can be downloaded here under the release notes section

My god this part is the best

• System instability may be experienced on Radeon RX 5700 series graphics products when performing memory overclocking while a 3D application is running

Pretty sure this is related to the BSOD.

so far 19.7.4 is working for me to an extent, its the most stable though i still have to use some of my work arounds, others are more unstable or actually give me BSODs but im not moving from this driver until the enhanced sync has been fixed.

 

[bake73]

Not had any BSODs with the new 19.8.2 yet. Hopefully its fixed now.

 

[Techen]

Now getting black screen crashes with new AMD drivers.... great

 

[doody]

Try ddu uninstaller in safe mode and reinstall

 

[bake73]

Just had my first BSOD on the new drivers. Back to 19.7.5.

 

[MeddlE]

And still on 19.4.1 Not had a single BSOD or black screen. All my games work as they should.

You can try disabling hardware acceleration in whatever web browser you are using as a temporary workaround for this issue.

Found that tip yesterday. Not had any BSODs since turning it off.
Reported it to AMD.
Cheers

Touch wood I’ve not had any BSOD’s since I installed the 19.8.1 driver but I’m still running everything at stock so that might be why. My previous driver was 18.12.1 and I simply did a clean install which removes the old driver and installs the new one. I used to use DDU but now I’ve got a Ryzen GPU I’m a bit more cautious TBH.

Not had a single BSOD since doing this.

So anyone else getting broken HDR after upgrading to a 5700xt, Or just me ?

For example on youtube hdr videos half of them don't trigger hdr anymore and the ones that do are bland and lower contrast than they should be, Same issue with games. Shadow of the tomb raider for example pretty much only displays a dim green/grey looking faded af, This for sure wasn't an issue when i was using a vega 64 days ago.

No longer alone, still on 19.7.5

I am missing 1366x768 resolution on my secondary monitor with the last few drivers. I reverted to the last WHQL drivers and that fixed the issue.
