my display loses connection in different games when i have adaptive sync enabled in radeon software.

the computer is still running and probably responds to input, but the screen remains black

even when i try switching to desktop. only way out i found so far is using the power button.

after a restart, everything is fine again.

so far i could confirm this with dota2, factorio and wolfenstein youngblood, but i have now disabled

adaptive sync globally in the radeon settings to avoid this unpleasant problem.

specs are as follows:

mb:gigabyte x570 aorus ultra

cpu: ryzen 7 3800x

ram: gskill trident z rgb 4x8 gb

gpu: powercolor red devil 5700xt

screen: asus mg279q

windows 10 pro 1903

driver version is 20.1.1

Enhance/Adaptive Sync is known to cause this problem now for 2+ years.  You found the only current solution of turn that feature off.  If you look at the release notes it's part of the known issues.  VSync and Free Sync do not have this problem.
