Drivers & Software

Hi,

since the Driver Version 22.3.1, there is a new Cache Folder under C:\Users\******\AppData\Local\AMD\ that is called DxcCache. This is for DX12 Games. Now you have Dxcache for DX11 and DxcCache for DX12. So far so good.

The DX12 Games that i play compile Shaders in this Folder and after some Weeks the Folder is near 4,5Gb and all the Games are most Stutter free. Yesterday i played some Godfall and the Stuttering was so horrible that i think that something is wrong. I looked in this Cache Folder again and there was the Issue. 3 of 4,5gb (Godfall Files included) Cache Files were deleted. Is this a Bug or is this Folder limited to 4gb+ and than clears the Files automaticlly?

I don´t reinstalled the Driver, no Windows Updates or Game Updates. So the Cache Files shouldn´t be touched.

Please AMD, make it like NVidia with the Shader Cache. A function to increase the Cache Limit would be great.

How old are some of those files, mine at 1.45gb (all April dates).

 When was the last time you did a clean install/factory reset of driver.

Good practice every time you see a change/mod to AMD software is clean install for newer.

The latest Files are from first April this Year. I do an factory Reset at every new Driver Installation. The Thing is, the DX11 Cache is cleared with every Install, the DX12 Folder not. Last Driver Install was the 22.4.1.
