Yep, used it since AMD introduced it. I use it at 60%

If I use an overlay to monitor temps etc. I'm getting the GPU crash in game (CODs DMZ). It's fine running 3dmarks.
Nice, on a RX 7900 XT Baldur's gate 3 runs at a minimum of 68 FPS at 4K Ultra, according to this article:

PCGH zeigt, welche Leistung Sie in Baldur's Gate 3 erwarten können - je nach verwendeter CPU oder Grafikkarte.
Not sure what one you are using. I use the latest MSI afterburner which is fine.

I use the inbuilt Adrenalin one and experience no crashing. I had an issue with crashes early on and realised I had a dodgy psu (RM850x) and swapped it out for a RM750x which fixed the issue.

Some 7900 XTXs ship with Samsung memory as opposed to Hynix. Hynix is preferrable from an overclocking perspective out of the two. You can tell if you have Samsung memory as it generally tops out at about 2650Mhz before the memory will throw out errors or degrade performance in game, or even show artifacts. Hynix will go higher before any of those happen. For short overclocking runs, you can sometimes push Hynix up past 2750Mhz.
If you would like to know which memory your XTX uses, you can check via HWINFO64.

I couldn’t see where to find it on HWINFO.

My sapphire 7900XT is hynix or at least I think it is as it has no trouble at 2700mhz

Here is a handy tool that you can use to actually verify memory stability on the 7900 XTX or other GPUs. Simply set your memory overclock and run the test for at least 5 minutes (standard test is 5 minutes and usually picks up errors, but the extended test is 30 minutes+) and see if you pass the standard test. If you do, increase memory frequency. If it reports an error, drop the memory frequency until the memory errors disappear. I recommend 6Mhz increments.
You'll be surprised how much lower your memory overclocks should probably be. Good chance that if you run 2700Mhz or higher, it's throwing errors out without you even knowing. This may show in game as one of the following, lower FPS, graphical artifacts like squares, flickering, flashing etc, or game crashing (without a TDR). Or it may work in game just fine, at least as far as you know but its throwing ecc memory errors in the background.

For my Sapphire 7900 XTX Nitro+ (the one I have with Hynix) I can run 2686Mhz, any higher and 1 or more errors pop up in the app mentioned above.
This heats up your GPU memory nicely, so keep an eye on temps. I find the hotter the memory gets with an overclock, the more likely it is to throw an error too.

Yeah, great feature and can really help. Currently using 80 at the mo.

Never used Image Sharpening, need to give that a try.
Any pointers?
Any pointers?
On MAIN Window, left hand directory panel>expand on Video Adapter>select AMD Radeon RX XTX7900.

I enabled it in Adrenaline’s software theres a scale to adjust to your preference. Ive just left it set to default and it looks crisp to me.
Ill check HWINFO again in a minute. I think im using an older version tho.

You can set it up globally or apply it per a game profile. Don't use it if you use FSR, otherwise you can use it with anything.
Soldato
Cool, any starting no. to try, seen 60/80 mentioned above, is anything applied at default on(without changing anything else)?

Depends on the game, somewhere between 50-100 works for me. 100 is good for old games that are not great graphically (eg Football Manager).

Ok I don't think it's an overlay that's is causing my driver crash.
If I leave the GPU at stock it doesn't crash in 3Dmarks or game.
If I undervolt it's stable on 3Dmarks. But crashes the GPU in game.
I hops this makes sense.

How much of an undervolt? Do you still crash with a smaller undervolt? What are your gpu and hotspot temps?
