The drivers released in 2024 not only failed to resolve any issues but also created new ones. There isn't a single user who hasn't encountered errors related to DirectX 12, 11, 10, or 9. I have lost hope for future updates.

I installed the 24.4.1 software. The graphics cards appeared in the system, and options for screen recording and live streaming were added, but there were stutters and lags. I updated to 24.5.1. Currently, both graphics cards are visible in the system, but if they are incompatible, why is 24.4.1 being installed on my laptop? I think separate software should be released for RDNA3, RDNA2, and Vega technologies. The onboard graphics card always causes issues during installation. My system specs are 5900HX and 6800M.

[Mazrim_Taim]

And here's the reason why -

[Snuggis]

Still getting random driver timeouts in World of Warcraft (7900 XTX).

[Buutti]

Not a single issue with 23-series driver. I suggest roll back to that.

[Rustedhammer]

Are you still getting driver timeouts in wow?  I was right there getting the timeouts when I first installed this driver.  I don't think I've changed anything, but I haven't had a timeout in probably a week or two.  It could be the card just messing with my emotions though. lol   This has only been going on for a year + now.

[erikovick]

To conclude, the AMD drivers are made by high school students and they are useless or have errors that they should not have at this stage of development, I don't say the same about the processors that have done it well.

AMD should consider developing a good ecosystem before launching an 8000 series

[Pluckiee]

 fix the ghost Tsushima my amd 7800xt keep crushing after the update 

[Stanzajko]

Hello i am really dissappointed cause something is really wrong with new drivers, i see updated to version 24.5.1 but when i check info about it , it gets me to 24.3.1 page , my secondary graphics card is still on version 24.3.1 . Tried cleaning the drivers 10 times , reinstalling . But nothing works and Ghost od Tsushima is unplayable . It shows me same error over and over again. Game reads the drivers as IT is version 24.3.1

[WantToLoveAmd]

This is not a DX12 only issue though

WoW kept crashing for me on DX11 once or twice a day with a 7900 xtx which is now just a heavy paper weight

go nvidia!

[Schnoz]

Unfortunately the infamous device hung error still hasn't been fixed. Mainly on DX12 only games. Dragon's Dogma 2 randomly crashses with it, Dead Space (2023) is unplayable since it will crash every 20-40 minutes, Cyberpunk 2077 will sheldomly crash but only if you are running videos in the background and very rarely Remnant 2 will also crash with the error.

[WantToLoveAmd]

I'm gonna send an email to gamers nexus and compile all the places people are complaining about these trash cards

I don't even use my 7900 xtx anymore

this is about retribution

almost 2 years and can't even use my computer reliably

[Pinkie_Pie]

Just make a list of user reported issues start fresh each driver, you see their will be lots of user reports that go ignored, RDNA3 especially has many issues that do not exist on RDNA2 but that is not always the case, sometimes it affects older GPU's as well.

[Rustedhammer]

Yeah I can't believe no one has talked about this yet.

[kendric_BUF]

please do. feel free to using screenshots of my posts. got so tired of AMD i rma'd my 7800xt. if the replacement keeps crashing i'm just gonna flip it and be done with AMD

[anthonydavid]

Have you got the solution about AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 24.5.1 Release Notes?

[hardreset]

After exiting games with vram overclocked to the desktop and run Opera GX , OperaGX crashes at random times.

After a while it can hang , it gets a gray screen.

[Draxirch]

If there's something we know is that their consistency to not address issues that people flag up is pretty bad.

Well I'm only hoping that the Steam version of KH1.5+2.5 might just work correctly, since AMD won't fix it.

[Obt1]

Please @amd fix Direct X issues on COD MW3 that would be great.......
It's been since last year I'm reporting the issue only drivers from november doesn't have the issue.
 
We are a lot of players with the same issue.

Would be great if you guys could look into it please.  

[hardreset]

You can't see anything in this picture , it's too small.
Secondly, reduce the OC of your graphics card and processor if you have one.

[Buutti]

Roll back to 23-series and the DirectX issue goes away. This whole 24-series is bad. I haven't had a single issue after going back to 23-series driver.

[endrii]

What about Linux Version ?

[Marek_Horacek]

After installing new Adrenalin Edition when I start Win 11, the image switches to a very unpleasant pinkish tint, which is really not nice, it helps at most to uninstall Adrenalin Edition and the colors are then back to the original as they should be. I have an RX 470 graphics card. I tried uninstalling all the original drivers based on your application and reinstalling everything, but it still switches the color to a nasty pink.  Is there any way to fix this ? Since it's currently impossible to keep working on this.

[radu1006]

On my side these drivers are better and I only had 1 driver timeout in almost 2 weeks, which is good. So far I think these timeouts may be related to browsers update processes that run in the background.

I also had one black screen, but the drivers are usable compared to the previous versions for me on my 7900xt.

I will keep them for now and post more details if I find something else.

[Zyv]

Please add anti lag 2 to valorant

[Draxirch]

Not sure why it double posted.

[user15]

well, thanks to this release, My card is dead now. It does not even load a simple game menu. I would never buy amd stuff ever again. here is full explanation: 
https://community.amd.com/t5/drivers-software/rx-6700xt-crash/m-p/687063#M193185

[Riptide_NVN]

FWIW. Loading the last R23 driver resolved the black screen problems I was having in MS Windows 11. Both with a 7900xtx and a 7950x iGPU.

[bhasadmuller]

When are you guys going to fix the video encoder issue in VR ganes ,

This has been highlighted countless time even Virtual Desktop recommends to use old version of drivers

Pls fix VR issue bro

[cpurpe91]

Reporting using the bug report tool in Adrenalin might help. That is how the driver team finds out about issues. Any one having issues of any kind should report them. 

[raptorhan]

I was getting min 144 fps @2k with  6800 with  24.4.1. but with  24.5.1 I got 58-75 fps on diablo IV on win 11 (64bit). Am I the only person getting low fps?. (yes I tried 2 times install/uninstall with ddu and my settings are global performance) I have 5800x - x570e - 32 gb 3600 cl16 -980 pro set.

[OnlySphinX]

I have a Big Problem with this ATT,My GPU consumption is above 60 percent after installing Driver 24.5.1 with nothing open

[radu1006]

I spoke too soon. I have a 3 driver timeouts in the last 2 days. Even Windows gave up on AMD and installed automatically a generic driver afterwards.

[Melisamaya]

A lot of bugs after I update to win 23H2. 

[tolcheen]

I guess we are just skipping 24.6.1 ?

[Buutti]

I really hope they bury the whole 24-series and start fresh. Nothing but problems.

[DreiNeunVierEins]

It's not a series. It's a date. It won't change to 25 until next year.

24.5.1. is 2024, May, driver release 1

[claverman]

Since I installed Adrenalin my PC stops recognizing the keyboard and disconnects it, any solution for that?
