does this mean "A black screen, system crash or TDR may occur while gaming when performing task switches, enabling performance metrics overlay, or having video content/web browsers open on secondary displays on Radeon RX 5000 series graphics products system configurations." is the final major stability fix?
UPDATE: it happened with 20.4.2 as well... I've undervolted the GPU and updated my MB BIOS, I'm waiting to see if this helps.
