Freeze / Crash with Brave and Discord (25.3.1)

Updated to 25.3.1 yesterday and ever since, if I have the Brave browser open in the background and I open up Discord, my PC will completely freeze or crash.

This does not happen with previous drivers, also tested with different browsers and did a memory test just to make sure.

Also, this seems to happen only when I have Twitch open, tried other website but it didn't happen. Maybe it can happen with Youtube but I don't want to destroy my PC.

 

Edit: It happened right now with both already open

Yes, I have the same problem. My screen froze and my computer shut down 3 times while Brave was open. Should I roll back the update?

This for sure does not happen with the previous WHQL driver, try rolling back or disabling hardware acceleration (just wrote about it - still testing)

After AMD and Windows updates, I got a blue screen error 3 times in a row. After uninstalling the Windows update, I stopped getting a blue screen, but when using Discord, Brave, YouTube, the screen suddenly freezes and the computer shuts down. I think the problem is due to the current driver, I'm not the only one who gets the same error.

I have similiar problems with this driver. Removed the previous driver with the clean up tool, but I got crashes in different intervals. Sometimes with discord open, something while working on a word doc(really annoying). Went back to 25.2.1

Might have found the cause for this.

It happened to me again when I had Discord open and I opened up Bitwarden. It seems like both of them have Hardware Acceleration, disabled it for now.

 

Will update in the coming days.

The latest AMD 25.3.1 drivers have big problems for the RX 7900XT. Typical AMD. Unfortunately, we can't rely on AMD. Desktop artifacts and flickering screens and fans that seem to turn on randomly. Incredible. After spending a lot of money on the video card. Only problems
