AMD today released Radeon Software Adrenalin 20.1.3 beta drivers. These drivers add support for the new Radeon RX 5600 XT graphics card that's hitting the shelves today; in addition to fixing a handful issues. To begin with, the drivers address a display signal loss noticed when performing parallel actions such as web browsing, gaming or watching video. Game crashes related to Nioh, Dragon Quest Builders 2, WWE 2K20, Dead or Alive 6 and Atelier Ryza were fixed. Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus now appears correctly in Radeon Software. Text overflow in some UI elements have been fixed. Loss of fan-tuning settings when switching between available GPUs has been fixed. Another kind of intermittent black screen on desktop idling for extended periods has been fixed.

Support For
  • Radeon RX 5600 XT
Fixed Issues
  • An intermittent black screen or loss of display may occur when performing parallel actions such as web browsing, gaming or watching video.
  • A limited number of games such as Nioh, Dragon Quest Builders 2, WWE 2K20, Dead or Alive 6 and Atelier Ryza may crash or fail to launch.
  • Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus is not detected in Radeon Software games manager.
  • Text overflow in some UI boxes or toast messages may be experienced in some language localizations.
  • Fan Tuning may change back to the default state when switching between available GPUs.
  • Copy text options are not available in the display specs table for Radeon Software.
  • An intermittent black screen or loss of display may occur when the system is left idle at desktop.
  • Factory Reset install may keep previously configured Radeon Software game profiles. This can cause mismatch between global graphics settings and per profile settings.
Known Issues
  • Grand Theft Auto 5 may experience a system hang or black screen at launch, when opening Radeon Overlay while in game, or after performing a task switch while in game.
  • Audio may intermittently be missing from Radeon ReLive recordings near the end of recorded clips.
  • Integer Scaling may cause some video content to show flicker when the display resolution is set to less than native resolution.
  • Multiple games may have very dark or very bright graphics in game when HDR is enabled in Windows.
  • Radeon Anti-Lag enable and disable beep notifications may be played in error when individually pressing keys assigned to the hotkey.
  • The Radeon Software Overlay hotkey notification may sometimes be displayed during video playback in web browsers or launching some video player applications.
  • Integer Scaling option is not showing up or available on some Windows 7 system configurations.
  • Radeon Software may open with an inconsistent size or may not keep its previously set size when opened.
  • Some Vulkan gaming applications may crash when performing a task switch with Radeon Image Sharpening enabled.
  • Some Radeon RX 5700 series graphics users may intermittently experience a black screen while gaming or on desktop. A potential temporary workaround is disabling hardware acceleration in applications running in the background such as web browsers or Discord.

Game crashes related to Nioh, Dragon Quest Builders 2, WWE 2K20, Dead or Alive 6 and Atelier Ryza were fixed.
This was fixed in the previous beta driver (20.1.2). Not being able to play DOA6 and Atelier Ryza was an annoying thorn on my PC with the RX 5700 XT.

EDIT: ALSO, is that pic a reference 5600 XT design? WHERE WAS THIS WHEN THE 5700 SERIES CAME OUT? :shadedshu:

I wonder if they enabled FRTC again. It was removed last month for some reason. Been resorting to setting Radeon Chill to control FPS.

setting Chill min and max to same FPS should be similar to FRTC
i wait a bit, until some more folks tested if the blackscreen errors are really gone

You decide.... even they are not sure about it. :kookoo:

Wow MD is pumping their drivers hard. I could have sworn there was a new driver not more than 2 weeks ago? Maybe that was when I actually installed it though.

The Fixed Issues entry should be for those on GCN4 or Polaris cards. They *should* be stable. (I can't confirm this.)

The Known Issues entry is specific for the RX 5700 specifically, but I haven't experienced this issue since 19.11.x (with Discord or Firefox in the background). This is with all my games on borderless/windowed(1920x1080).

Still won't boot. So, either still broken or windows is, but no one is doing anything.

I don't know, on my Adrenalin control panel when I click "Check for updates" its says "Up to date", may be my installation is broken (19.12.2).

you likely have some optional check box titled "Don't notify about BETA drivers" or something like that. basically it will say you're up to date as long as there is not a newer WHQL version released

It was not fixed for Nioh on 20.1.2
So I'll hope updating to these drivers 20.1.3 that it actually solves the crash at launch issue. haven't played that game for several months now, since Oct or early Nov is when the issue was introduced....just even acknowledged it less than a month ago which was crap for taking that long, but if it actually fixes it, good for them for getting it done on the very next release.

I can't speak for any of the other games part of that list though.

From what I’ve read, there is no reference design for the 5600XT. Board partners can use the 5700 layout if they wish, but the reduced memory bus will leave a spot open. They have more liberty with the design and it sounds like factory overclock editions return with real gains.

You're correct. Since adrenalin 2020 came out in mid Dec, they've been on top of trying to fix the many issues it has seemed to cause.:(



Side note to @Cheeseball - no reference model cards from amd... just the spec.

Its been beaten to death. Since they can't go back in time they already said on Reddit they will be taking feedback and implementing that in future products. Most feeback was to either go all AIB on launch or have non blower decent custom cooler that does the job better than blower and AIBs can improve on. I think this is pretty much all AIB from the go. We might see the same thing with future cards, and likely higher end cards will have a dual fan reference design but I won't be surprised if they just do AIB from the go on future products.

BUT WHAT IS DAT !@#&^!@ PICTURE BLARGH@#!*&!@(#^&(!@^$

But yeah, I know. They only made a reference design for the 5700 series and the OEM design for the 5500 (which turned into the 5500 XT). That concept pic up there looks nice though, taking part of the design from the blower style and putting it on dual-fan. I'm pretty sure if it was real it would most likely be Sapphire/PowerColor coolers like on the Pulse and Red Dragon.

I will stick with the 2019 drivers. Way to many crashes and bugs in these new ones.

Worst driver since time. Crashes, black screens. Example: WOWS drop 30 fps, random black screen etc.

Yes I passed the DDU, clean install. 5700 XT owner :(

The drivers before these solved a few full screen issue's i been having for a while now, they are not stopping me from using the PC.

How ever a few versions before were and had to make sure the old shit was cleared up before installing newer drivers.

Going by the AMD folder created by the installer, don't know if the will help you though.
