**THE OFFICIAL AMD CHIPSET DRIVERS THREAD**

[opethdisciple]

I thought I'd create an OFFICIAL AMD chipset drivers thread as a satire of the AMD and Nvidia GPU driver threads.

You can find the drivers found here.

There was an updated set of drivers pushed yesterday. They seem to be a fairly minor update but you can find a reddit discussion here on what was updated. New power plan apparently.

 

[Steedie]

Lost 200 points on my Cinebench and my temps have gone up loads since installing yesterday’s new chipset drivers

 

[Yaayuh!]

LOL! Some happy people in that Reddit thread. I'll stick with the current BIOS and drivers until this **** show settles.

Looks like AMD are on it though and have got together to discuss the post-launch "niggles":

Spoiler: AMD technical meeting

 

[Saltcreek]

I am reading mixed reviews too. I am going to wait until until I am confident that I will see an improvement.

Finewine.

Finewine.

You got that cooler on yet?

Nah.
I won't be redoing it for a while to be honest.
I've had to get replacement screws, but what I've been given are too big.

5700XT's currently sat 1100mv at 2000MHZ and I'm happy with that.

These chipset drivers have worked well for me. Has helped with the issue I was having with the cores boosting up to full speed even doing simple basic things on the desktop. And, unlike Steedie, my temps have dropped but the performance has improved.

 

[djay]

Finewine.

I'll give these a go later as my 3700x is stuck at 3.6ghz in Windows 10. I have to launch Ryzen master and choose default everytime I boot windows for it to run at stock!

 

[AStaley]

Loaded these on my 3900X, can't say I've noticed any difference.

 

[juno_first]

No real change on 3dmark default test for me.

 

[Doobedoo]

Anybody had an issue with the pc turning itself back on after a shutdown?

It doesn’t do it all the time but when it plays up I can turn it off 3-4 times in a row and it’ll turn itself back on. Sometimes I have to shut it down and turn off the psu via its switch.

No, but I have an issue where a restart from W10 actually does a full power cycle instead (shutdown fully and power on).

Just updated , vcore dropped in windows to more sensible 1.2 fluctuating

can anyone confirm what the minimum processor state in ryzen balanced is set at on these drivers? mine is 99%

Just changed mine from 99% to 5%

ok thanks was just checking the drivers installed correctly ive set mine at 5% too vcore going as low as 0.948 when idling

I use Windows High Perf with 1% minimum since got the 3900X. Finding it has the most sustained boost clocks, (4.4 on 12 core, 4.6 on 6 core configuration) with the CPU idling most of the time at 0.95v

99% is the default correct setting.

 

[McBain]

So is Ryzen balanced plan actually recommended/usable these days? Used to be horrendous, at least on my 2600, idle temps in the 50 range.
