AMD Software Adrenalin 23.7.1 WHQL Released
AMD late Thursday released the Adrenalin 23.7.1 WHQL drivers. While these do not come with optimization for any new games since the previous 23.5.2 drivers, they add several new Vulkan API extensions, and fix a few issues. In particular, they introduce Vulkan-based accelerated video decode for H.264 and H.265 formats, among 8 other extensions spanning the Khronos and Valve trunks. The drivers also claim to improve idle power and multi-monitor power draw of RX 7000 series GPUs.
Among the issues fixed with Adrenalin 23.7.1 WHQL include sub-optimal VR performance or stuttering noticed with RX 7000 series GPUs, and an application crash for DaVinci Resolve Studio with AV1 video playback. The drivers improve idle- and multi-monitor power-draw for RX 7000 series GPUs on some 4K@144 Hz displays, and multi-monitor configurations. Display corruption noticed with WWE 2K23, and Nioh 2 have been fixed.

- Certain virtual reality games or applications may encounter suboptimal performance or occasional stuttering on Radeon RX 7000 series GPUs.
- Application crash or driver timeout may be observed during playback of AV1 video content using DaVinci Resolve Studio.
- Improvements to high idle power when using select 4K@144 Hz FreeSync enabled displays or multimonitor display configurations (such as 4K@144HZ or 4K@120 Hz + 1440p@60 Hz display) using on Radeon RX 7000 series GPUs.
- Intermittent corruption may be observed playing WWE 2K23 on some AMD Graphics Products, such as the Radeon RX 7900 XTX.
- Intermittent corruption may be observed after switching windows while playing Nioh 2 on some AMD Graphics Products, such as the Radeon RX 6800 XT.
- Application crash may be intermittently observed while playing RuneScape on some AMD Graphics Products, such as the Radeon RX 5700 XT.
- Intermittent corruption may be observed around some player models while playing Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA Mega Mix+ on some AMD Graphics Products, such as the Radeon RX 6900 XT.
- Stuttering may be observed while playing Call of Duty : Modern Warfare II with Radeon Anti-Lag enabled. As a temporary solution, users encountering this are recommended to disable the Anti-Lag in the per-game settings.
- Performance Metrics Overlay may report N/A for FPS on various games.
- Display signal may be lost after switching windows on certain Adaptive-Sync enable displays on some AMD Graphics Products, such as the Radeon RX 7900 XTX.
- Higher than expected GPU Memory Utilization when using certain Record and Stream settings such as Instant Replay.

AMD 23.5.2 Drivers
23.7.1 Drivers.
The idle power consumption on both drivers hangs around the 111w mark majority of the time, can spike up to 121w for a couple of seconds. Baffling AMD? :kookoo:
FYI; 48” LG c2 4K/120, 1440p/240 oled, and 1080p/75
This looks to me like you are using this card for Mining?
I am on wait what - I thought I was on Q4 pro 2022...........looks like it updated??
Edit single 4k screen 60Hz
And what refresh rates you need to provide abit more detail in your post.
And this is 1080p 60Hz no HDR while idle
Memory clocks at 2487 Mhz while idle seems to be the issue in your setup.
This driver causes crashing in Last of Us and Metro Exodus Enhanced. The control panel size also doesn't save.
I'm tired with this shit.
