R9 drivers Fortnite

Hello all,

so i'm probably slow to this party but i'm running an R9 290x due to finances and i'm hoping something can be done about the bad performance and texture flickering, i briefly had it running in DX12 and it was working a charm until i tried to log in a day later and it kept crashing the game on start i understand its aged now however i have seen it working its just needs some support and i find it hard to believe its not up to the task when the game runs on the Nintendo switch lol, this is quite literally a driver issue, even the DX11 and performance modes run like dogsh...

Please help

As @Earnhardt mentioned all R9 GPU cards are not supported with AMD Driver updates anymore. So if the last AMD Driver doesn't work with your game you will need to either:
1- Upgrade your GPU card to a supported GPU card

2- Try installing a Modified AMD Driver from here: https://www.amernimezone.com/

I believe they modify the latest AMD drivers to work with Legacy or Non-Supported AMD GPU cards like yours.
