Forza Motorsport and 7900 XTX driver timeout (likely other AMD too)

[Deleted member 234997]

The game is trash and runs like anus even on 1080P on a 7900 XT.

Then there's something wrong with the rest of that setup, because when it runs, it's running fine for me. Well above 60FPS at 4K, everything maxed.

Not the case and no.

Same for me but on every track. I do the practice, then the race and after it on rewards screen - crash. 7900XTX and 7800X3D. Newest drivers 23.10.1 installed.
When it runs, it runs ok. Maxed at 4K, usually stays above 60. It looks nice, but RT reflections look weird sometimes. Overall game feels like beta, released just because it needed to. But well that seems to be the standard anyway.
Also those drivers didn't had Forza Motorsport at the beggining, I would know I downloaded them from within the driver as soon as they appeared. That's a second time it happens, when they do not include optimizations for a game in the release notes and add it later. Either they forgot, or they just say they are game drivers while really they are doing nothing.

Im fine at High at 1080p on a 6700
maybe there is actually something wrong with your system

Again my system is fine, the game sucks.

If your not willing to do any troubleshooting
You can't blame the game

If your system was "fine" why is it performing worse then similar and weaker systems

I mean looking at your video I know the fix for why your game is "blurry" but it's the games fault so no point fixing it

That framerate. 60 FPS is not even held. Its a goddamn racing game, and FPS is dancing all the way between 40 and 60. What the actual fck? How? There's barely any logic and the game doesn't look above average either. If you put this next to Wipeout Pure or something... oh man... talent has left the building clearly

Also... RTAO. How about LMAO. My god the mountains of bullshit you walk into left and right... amazing.

I am experiencing the same timeout on post race. Adrenalin Times out every time on my 7900 XTX but it never happens on my other PC with the 6900XT. my temps are great, I can hit 3200MHz Clock speed, unfortunately I can't OC the VRAM (Lotto Lost on the memory with this GPU, no biggie). Pretty tired of all this driver timeout crap with AAA Titles.

I think it is RDNA3 related. No Issues on my 6900XT RDNA2 PC

Coming up on two weeks without a fix for a well documented issue with their top end card from AMD and not a word from the idiots behind Forza. Yet again, I regret giving Sapphire/AMD my money.

I am about to start testing driver only, using the 7900XTX Aqua OC and MSI Afterburner as Afterburner does allow us to increase power limits and clock speeds. starting with ,my GPUs normal boost clock of 3100MHz. I should have an answer for you fast, it started happening after the update to 23.10.2 and always freezes up post race. Stay tuned

I had the exact same behavior at least two versions before that.

Still happening, dang. Forza Motorsport's troubleshooting page is riddled with a bunch of nonsense, pretty much disable all your applications LOL. I did find that this is not limited to AMD, lots of NVidia users are identifying terrible performance issues as well. I paid for the premium edition through XBox for Windows app and am pretty bummed out. Every game launch this year has been terrible...

Does that happen in a specific track? Is it due to the GPU or the CPU that it drops that low? Im trying to reproduce the problem but don't know which tracks this happens.

This issue along with your random issues you posted in your other threads, i think you may have a defective card.. still within RMA or return window? I assume not.

A driver-timeout is classic of the GPU core/SCLK being unstable.

 

[Kapone33]

I Posted incorrectly that it was Homestead (Eaglecrest) that was causing the crash but I have had no issue playing other offerings that the Game provides. MP is a non issue and the 3rd Career option is smooth. There is something that is a PITA in this Game though. Cars may not be expensive at the top individually but you need a specific car to play anything in the Game and it kind of bothers me that you can spend real money to get to play some series. On Gamepass that seems like a real slight.

Ones who have an RX 7900 XTX, better be testing with Superposition 1080p Extreme and some others that give the GPU a workout. If it don't pass Superposition, RMA!

It will run Superposition for hours.

 

[Deleted member 234997]

That's the thing, never had a single driver issue with the 7900 XT.

I may reinstall Forza tonight and see how it performs again when I get around to it, got work tomorrow.

Hogwarts Legacy and Beam NG .drive are others recommended to test with.

Yeah, J. K. Rowling is never getting a cent from me.

 

[RJARRRPCGP]

Beam NG .drive gives the GPU a workout alright.

Not the case and no.
Game is trash.

Does that mean my card will look sort of like a GT 1030?!

Most likely.

Game even with RT maxed looks like absolute anus.

However I can say performance is much better, but... not at all optimized still, it is now using the GPU (There was an update??) It still drops into the 40's but spends the majority in the high 80's -100 FPS.

Even after applying an overclock which you see in the video perf really don't change much. This is unusual behaviour as this card at 3ghz and above is much much faster than stock. I did forget to apply my custom fan curve, but temps were not an issue.

I don't know I could be wrong but I actually think the game looks worse than my prior video?

I did shader recompilation twice and I restarted the game after applying new settings.

It at least disproves the fools who think we are lying or have issues with our PC's...

The game is still far from what I would call playable, it looks terrible and the framerate jerks all over the place.

I am posting the video early even though it is not fully processed, just come back when it is legible.

Here's Beam NG .drive for a comparison:
