Uhm... Really?! ~ ahem ~

Enhanced Sync may cause an intermittent black screen to occur during gameplay and video playback using extended displays and toggling Enhanced Sync.

Just one of AMD driver issue has been around so long that there are memes that are designed and expected to be release with each AMD driver announcement.

I couldn't careless about any AMD products but the constant misdirection BS from AMD about its drivers, though, and from its dumb fans, needs to stop ASAP.

Just installed these now.

the VCE presets is indeed fixed I see them now in Sony Vegas Pro.

I will check some of my games tomorrow but so far looking good.

FYI for,the previous driver release.

Enhanced Sync improvements have been introduced in the latest version of AMD Software to provide further stability, and a better overall experience with your AMD PC.

That’s said I was trying or out because I liked the FS+ES combo back before it went bad but the games I was playing with crazy FPS was making card get hotter than necessary. But I didn’t have any actual issues leaving it on across quite a few games. Just my main games don’t “need” 300FPS and my card cooking doing it.

More like stuttering playback, finally they address this issue.

Funny thing is, I completed the game long before these update rolls out, with Flawless Widescreen and bunch Nexus Mod. The only thing that insulting obviously Square Enix.

Ermm do you know what misdirection means? because it seems like you are completely contradicting yourself in that weird fanboy tirade.

Zero fan speed should be a choice not a standard setting - not a fan

Kabouter Plop · Aug 23, 2022

Same unstable drivers but at least they are admitting a lot more being wrong as before.

It's not just one issue that needs to be fixed. It will stay, as long there are problems reported about it.

So has anyone had install issues like those with 22.7.1 and 22.8.1 where the screen goes blank and doesn't recover and all USB devices lose power and after reboot nothing but problems with web pages displaying videos that cause massive system slow down for 30+ seconds

in the end I had to DDU and go back to 22.6.1 because it just works

I still do not understand why sometimes i can speedrun blackscreens under 1 minute and now im unable to black screen for 10 minutes straight if had times i had no black screens for over 1 hour even and i have firefox running in the background, as if i have 1 of the fastest triggers but dont understand yet what the trigger is.
Only took an hour wanted to test if chipset driver had impact on stability even using AMD own cleanup tool first, makes no difference.
