Hello! I have a Lenovo Ideapad 720s running a Ryzen 7 2700u processor and a RX Vega 10 display adapter. When I run the Lenovo System update it recommends me to keep my 17.7 driver for my Vega 10. But I see that currently we have 18.11 available. I tried installing 18.11 but after installation my Radeon Settings will not open anymore. So I had to revert back to 17.7. Is 18.11 update recommendable for me? Thank you!
This is a very tricky to answer. I have a HP 15 with Ryzen 7 2500U with Vega 8. You can install 18.11 by installing it from the Device Manager: update display driver and route it folder of your 18.11. However you lose all the overlay or have errors running it. This may affect power saving and thermal control features. I know how frustrating it is that the drivers are not up to date with current release. I was able to install 18.7.1 with Relive functioning with help from the HP forum:Solved: Re: Envy x360 Ryzen Crashes - HP Support Community - 6866127. This just to show what can be done. I find 18.7.1 stable and will stick to it as I hope a real update will be released for the mobile space. I do wish AMD can provide information when or will the mobile driver/chipset be updated to newer version soon. regards
