Well I got fed up of my 5700XT display driver going to unrecoverable black screen when watching fullscreen video (Youtube, Potplayer, MPC) so I bit the bullet and retired my X58 SLI LE i7-920.. fulfilled my impulse urges by driving straight to Best Buy and getting a new x570 mobo and Ryzen 3800X and RAM.. snapped up a few more SSD disks since they're so cheap these days. and a nice new NZXT PC case .. Spent the next day and half putting it all together (lots of interruptions and diversions and naps).. Finally the build is complete. What a treat to see my Windows load in about 3 seconds following the mobo POST ! Activated Game Boost and XMP .. 4.2 GHz across ALL 16 cores (Ok, OK, 8 cores 16 threads hehehe).. After taking a few victory laps though my game library and marveling at how much snappier and crisper it all is.. I settled back in my recliner feeling quite pleased and convinced the $800+ I just spent is an investment in a computer that will last me for years to come. As I chuckled to myself and mused about how that i7-920 had bottlenecked my last 3 GPU upgrades, I loaded up the Amazon to binge on some Downton Abbey. 20 minutes in, bang - a black screen that only a reboot can escape from.

TLDR: The more my components change, the more my 5700XT problems remain the same.


In awe of my badass Ryzen 3800X tho ! Come on AMD, you can fix this !

Frtc was bad and its part of chill now. Just use rtss and go on with it.


It worked. Having said that, it seems Chill can be made to work well enough. Still not sure which setting is causing The Forest crashes for me...hoping not Chill.

Update: Seems to be Chill)

At least in part the previously fixed issue with hardware accelerated browsing and also media playback was brought back in the 19.12.x drivers and still not fixed, 19.11.3 or 19.12.1 remains the more stable and the rest is a bit of a gamble and once again it only manifests on some systems which makes it difficult to troubleshoot.

Chrome.
Chromium Engine Framework / CEF. (IE Steam and Uplay and others using Chromium too.)
Firefox. (Video playback such as Youtube in particular seem prone to black screens or just crashes or perhaps just the tab going black or crashing it's kinda random.)
Discord.
Various programs using hardware acceleration such as for photos.

https://www.reddit.com/r/Amd/comments/eloq1k/hardware-acceleration-safe-to-turn-back-on-yet/

Various.

https://www.reddit.com/r/Amd/comments/elyhae/i-cant-wait-for-them-gpu-drivers-to-be-properly/

Software for photo editing I believe.

https://www.reddit.com/r/Amd/comments/doz5uz/radeon-driver-19102-reintroduced-hardware/

Discord though for a older driver but yeah it gets fixed and seemingly comes back.

Reddit search isn't the most 100% effective ever but there's other topics as well about it.
That's just one problem out of several for the 5700XT and again it's something some users get hit by a lot and yet it works for others and I can't find much of a common cause at all.

X570's or the earlier motherboards but then the X470's might be up to date and set so it's not the poor PCI-E 4.0 support.

2x 8-pin PCI-E or the 6+2 variant instead of 1x 8-pin to 2x 6-pin so it's not the surging either much as that and Wattman are both problems.
Clocks can overshoot by around 100 Mhz so stability testing is not easy, power draw can also spike from the 150 - 180w defaults or what's set via the power slider to over 300w at times but even on good PSU's in the Kilowatt range the black screen error occurs so not that either.

Modern 60Hz, 120Hz, 144Hz displays with HDMI or DP or certified 2.0 or higher HDMI or 1.4 DP so not a cable issue either.

Third party programs and OS's from newer Win10 to older Win7 and stuff like Afterburner, TriXX or nothing so yeah finding the root cause of this little problem has been a interesting read over 6 months now and counting but nothing really to fully resolve it.


Energy saving options (Link state thing.) and sleep mode and the usual quirk with fast boot plus existing wonky settings like enhanced sync is also either on or not but again not a definitive answer.

Leaves RMA's I suppose but people go through those as well, quite a few and still the problem persists.


And back to 19.7.5 or something and suddenly the system mostly works again and it's a mess figuring out what's going on the software or driver suite plus well newer drivers do have important fixes as well so if it's stable using 19.11.3 or 19.12.1 first would be the recommended.

Alternatively the card gets returned and a bit of a price increase for something like the 2070S that's also seen a increase as these other seemingly random issues just keep being a thing for Navi, Vega, Polaris, Fury and also the 300 series from driver to driver now though it's tougher for Navi but it seems Vega and Polaris and the VII are all getting some regressions and problems and it needs to be fixed sooner rather than later.



EDIT: My view on the situation so far at least, it's kinda a tough situation and there's no clear answer either other than possibly just using a by now fairly old driver but these aren't without fault either depending on what got resolved in a newer set though it might make the overall system stable at least.

AMD has at least promised driver improvements now so this is a start and then once the remaining issues start being confirmed as actually resolved that's going to show that they're putting in the effort at truly fixing this up.

Well that was a bit of a write-up there mostly the mid part about current suggested workarounds that maybe maybe won't work and yeah.
(What is there to say at this point, wait a few more weeks again for 20.1.2 isn't really a suggestion that's very fun so returning the card if within warranty or rolling back to a earlier driver and testing until one of them is determined as stable which again it also varies beyond perhaps 19.7.x as almost 100% stable.)

I am curious though since I can see frequent spiking of GPU usage including memory but not memory voltage even under idle conditions if that's part of it but then that wouldn't explain the situation for those crashing (Black screen and forced reboot.) when the GPU is under load and it's getting the power and such needed.

Unless the spiking clock speeds are part of it outside of the PSU's hitting a surge protection when it's doing a sudden power draw or having inferior cabling. (1x 8 to 2x 6 might work otherwise but not at that power draw hitting at least over 300w somewhere.)
But those also happen when Wattman isn't used at all or even when the GPU is downclocked, undervolted or a combination of undervolt and underclocking or even setting a higher voltage level to see if that works so again it's just questions but nothing really definitive for a answer.

Spiking also happens on Vega and VII now possibly Polaris too so that is important as well if the GPU suddenly goes above stable speeds even when Wattman isn't used at all but since the rest doesn't help then it's not a answer either.
Plus the situation where some titles just crash at random shortly after starting them up or just immediately on start though that's usually just a application crash and not something that takes the entire system down.
