AMD Releases the Radeon Software Crimson Edition 16.8.2

btarunr · Aug 13, 2016

AMD released its latest version of Radeon Software Crimson Edition. Version 16.8.2 comes with optimization for this week's biggest release, "No Man's Sky," (if you can get it to work). It also comes with optimization for "Paragon" beta. The game addresses bugs related to "Overwatch," idle flickering on machines with FreeSync enabled, and installation issues affecting Windows 10 Anniversary Edition. Grab the drivers from the links below.

It's bad says my GPU is incompatible, not happy at all.

I'm joking of course. :laugh:

Well I installed them and they made it worse for me. I was running smoothly, no hitching,. These made all my menus flicker so I rolled back. Now THOSE drivers are doing it too and I have now joined the legion of stutterers...Sigh..
So I am might as well just put these one back on and see if I can solve the problem I didn't have....

They're all Beta drivers too.
I just updated mine yesterday to 16.8.1

In your case I would try DDU and do a complete clean install of the new drivers first, if that does not fix it then DDU again and do a complete clean install of the previous

Yeah I usually just do a standard uninstall/reinstall because now doesn't seem matter the driver it's now just "broken" Dammit I played it for like 5hrs straight without a single hiccup....DDU it I guess.

I hate it when it always puts my TV to primary sound output :banghead:

Tho it's a few clicks to switch to my soundcard, but still annoying.
