PC Drivers & Software

All the sudden Far Cry Primal crashing to Desktop!! I have had finished the Game twice in past without any issue!! No hardware change and running Driver 21.5.2 and when I check under Gaming Tab I see weird red cross Symbol which indicates my PC didn't meet minimum requirements, which is absurd ??  FAR CRY PRIMAL

Hi @shadow007 

Did you try running 21.6.1? You should be able to use 21.6.1 and it has AMD's latest FSR feature. It might be a compatibility issue since 21.5.2 was the previous optional driver and now they released a 21.5.2 WHQL version on their website.

I myself am trying to get AMD help us (their customers) resolve a five year unattended issue, they lost Unreal Engine 3 DirectX 9 optimizations with the removal of things related to "Radeon Additional Settings" in the driver version 17.7.2,

which caused a 64% drop in minimum frame-rate areas in most, if not all DirectX 9 Unreal Engine 3 games.

Kind regards

Hi @shadow007 

That is very unfortunate to hear and I believe you with all the issues I am facing. Mine worked when I played it about 4 weeks ago on the latest drivers,

but AMD has a problem for every different device or sometimes on all devices.

What I can try to suggest is to report it on the OpenGL & Vulkan forums on this community website since they have contact with the DirectX developers and to report it through the Bug report tool in Radeon software.

In addition, try to test the stability of your components with Heaven Valley Benchmark and Cinebench R15.

Kind regards

Very odd situation!! I had to replace Sapphire Nitro+ Vega 64 as well as Corsair AX1200i to fix the problem.
