  • Fixed Issues
    • Intermittent application crash may be observed while playing The Last of Us Part II on Radeon™ RX 7900 series graphics products.
    • Intermittent application crash may be observed while playing FBC: Firebreak on some AMD Ryzen™ processors such as the Ryzen™ AI 300 series and the Ryzen™ 8000 series.
    • Corruption (missing scan travel lines) may be observed while playing GTFO™ on Radeon™ RX 7000 series graphics products.
    • Stutter may be observed while playing games with some VR headsets at 80Hz or 90Hz refresh rate on some AMD Radeon™ Graphics Products such as the Radeon™ RX 7000 series. Users experiencing this issue are recommended to change the refresh rate as a temporary workaround.
    • Intermittent application crash may be observed while playing NBA 2K25 in MyCareer mode on Radeon™ RX 9070 series graphics products. AMD is actively working on a resolution to be released as soon as possible.
    • Stutter may be observed While playing Baldur’s Gate 3 on some AMD Radeon Graphics™ Products such as the Radeon™ RX 9000 and 7000 series.

Well that's a first. Says "Error 182: detected AMD hardware that is not supported". Noooo is this the end for my 6900XT. :p I'll try a reboot lol.

EDIT: Nope. Has someone uploaded the wrong version...

So these introduce DX12 work graphs to a consumer driver.
I remember them making a big deal about those a year or so back. I wonder if any games actually allow them to be used or show any performance changes due to this.

If I understood it was a way to mitigate or reduce CPU overhead, but no idea if its actually USED in anything yet, or whether its game agnostic and used automatically?

I don't think anything really uses this yet. Think of work graphs as a successor to d3d12 ExecuteIndirect (few games leveraged this feature as well). Hopefully it becomes more widespread in the future; what's promising is that Vulkan also has a workgraphs implementation.

This should now be addressed, sorry for the inconvenience.

Are vegas due any updated drivers for bf6 anytime soon? Guessing not.

for support in that game, I'm not so sure; the vendor suggests NV10 (RX 5700XT, RX 5700, RX 5600 XT) as the minimum requirement for AMD gfx.

It was playable in the beta with a driver rename workaround, but it was a bit crashy (for some it ran fine). Though I've seen cards with 3/4 gigs of vram running it as well.

It's playable, but they do not explicitly support that series of graphics with BF6 and wouldn't want us to claim otherwise.

I'm curious, do you need to modify a string in win registry to get it to run?

The beta at least flagged up an error that a certain driver revision was needed, renaming the driver in the registry let the game launch, though for me it was crashy, for others it seemed to work fine.
