WattMan reset on every boot with Win11 25295 build is still there! And the gray screen with Shadow of the Tomb Raider in DX12 mode as well! 🙁

FINALLY. Curious if they silently fixed the dreaded MPO issues reported by others...I don't have time right now, probably will install them over the weekend. Those performance gains are margin of error, don't know why they brag about it lol...except F1 2022 and DOOM. But free performance boost is always welcome 😀

Some changes on OpenGL support (Win10 21H2, RX 6700XT): GL_KHR_shader_subgroup has been removed (wtf was added in 22.11.1 :| ) GL_ARB_gpu_shader_int64 and GL_ARB_spirv_extensions has been added.

AMD Radeon Software Driver Issues & Bugs Tracker https://i.imgur.com/ZlfLa1X.png

Quake II RTX v1.6.0 started to crash with this driver. 😕 P.S. And I already had a few crashes of Forspoken Demo. UPDATE!

Espionage724:

Oh no...

That and the lower than expected VR performance being listed as a known issues though is massively better than them not acknowledging it.

Quick test... Seemed to fix most Chrome stutter issues I had. - That weird cursor hang when hovering over links - Stuttering when a game is running. (while scrolling and the cursor movement) Will report back for black screens. VRAM clock also gets dynamically adjusted again while playing videos. Which was the case for some older driver version too but in the latest ones the clock was always locked at max speed. Could be a side effect of enabling MPO again.... ///edit nvm... after another reboot clocks are stuck at max again while playing videos. //edit yeah, very smooth so far in chrome. If this one doesn't black screen / freeze, keeper.

Let's see how much this driver affects (or not) Callisto Protocol, Dead Space, Forspoken and Hogwarts Legacy. Well, for any of you that have these games.

https://www.reddit.com/r/Amd/comments/10aumlr/dpc_watchdog_violation_rx_7900_xtxxt_user_if_you/ The DPC BSOD issue still exists in 23.2.1. Some displays may require disabling AMD FreeSync to resolve this issue. Some people want to tell us that using CRU will solve it, but they don't know that CRU will not work on these versions. Any changes will not take effect.

Macer:

CRU doesnt work anymore on the latest AMD drivers?

iakoboss7:

Yap. I use CRU to change monitor parameters but it doesn't work. I changed my card to RX 6650XT and installing the old driver CRU will take effect.

No FRS3 / Fluid Motion supported added. Not going to bother. Glad i bought a new GPU 3 days and should arrived tomorrow, ASRock Phantom Radeon RX Vega 56 . Not using cards without Fluid motion features anymore haha.

I highly doubt anything but 7000 series will have fsr3.0 support.

I wonder why they remove optional / recommend from title in download page. But Ii see recommend after driver name i prefer old one.

Is it better for hogwarts..?

b0uncyfr0:

Is it better for hogwarts..?

... yes. States that not only is there a performance uplift, it fixed the White foliage bug on the RX 7xxx series hardware

Undying:

I highly doubt anything but 7000 series will have fsr3.0 support.

For AMD's sake, i hope its not true lol.

I found an error in the installer. The installer does not install the driver for the Pci Bus. I had to install manually. If anything, here is the finished archive. Version 22.40.0.2

Paul Rose:

nvidia best drivers best gpu best dlss and amd crums crumbs crumbs ah almost forgot best ray tracing

Best community as well, apparently.

They are wa*kers anyway. I'm tired of this AMD bulls*it. They cant fix they own software for their measly hardware. This is for sure the last CPU/GPU I buy from them. Quest 2 is still unusable with latest drivers. I waited 2 months for NOTHING...."Maximum encode bitrate is limited to 100Mbps for certain applications."
