AMD Re-releases Radeon Software 19.9.2 Beta as WHQL
Yesterday, AMD silently posted a WHQL-signed version of Radeon Software Adrenalin 19.9.2 drivers that it originally released as a Beta on September 12. This should be good news for owners of Radeon RX 5700 Navi cards, as "WHQL" means these should be the best drivers to use on these cards.
It seems the new driver doesn't have any changes other than WHQL certification. Do let us know if your RX 5700 Series driver issues are fixed now, or if they still persist. Grab them from our downloads section.

Like run x amount of games from x amount of years for x amount of hours and see if stable/crashes? If not then they should add that to the WHQL checklist, cause I have only heard a few people say Navi is smooth and those people are probably just playing like 2 games, not a couple hundred.
I want to buy an all AMD system. I really do, I am waiting patiently still. I just hope RX 5800 can deliver solid and stable performance, even in old games like mass effect all the way to modern AAA's. I have a long backlog but also want to play newer games sometimes.
WHQL is NOT about optimization, efficiency, and a driver can behave properly with the underlying hardware and Windows OS not causing errors, all the while not working as intended.
Which is why I say WHQL doesn't mean much for home use beyond marketing.
If you register as a hardware developer you can download the WHQL test kit from Microsoft
Gold you charge extra money for this qualification, Nvidia will pay extra every time, and AMD will be forced to eventually do so as well instead of forcing their buyers to be beta testers for 5 months.
@Durvelle27 I'm sure he agrees.
