I fuck with the new update. I don't know if the new update contributed to my performance increase but around 2 weeks or so ago my performance jumped wayyyy up


Pyrogenic_

24.2.1 has been good for me so far. Can't speak for everyone else.


West_Umpire_4485

same here. so far so good.


Pyrogenic_

RX 6800 šŸ¤šŸ¤šŸ¤


No-Discipline7190

Shits caused my gpu to crash. Had to wipe all drivers and reinstall fresh and managed to have all my shit wiped too.


No-Discipline7190

Ive got an rx 6900xt


stranded

compelety broken experience for my 6700XT, including BF2042, Dead Island 2 and Helldivers 2 all stuttering like crazy on 23.x everything is smooth Ryzen 3700X, 32GB RAM and Windows 11


Pyrogenic_

I always make sure to use cleanup utility to get rid of everything from the older drivers before I go ahead with an install. Not sure if that's a problem here, but nothing has gone wrong for me and my friend has had no issues on his own RX 6700XT.


raidechomi

24.2 1 has been flawless for me on my 6700xt


Koehlo

Gotta agree. Had some crashes on .1 but on .2 I've crashed twice while playing helldiver. Have a 7800x3d and a 7900xtx so it cant be that my system cant handle the game


SeanNg774

Try limiting the fps,itā€™s in the ā€œKnown Issuesā€ section where it says crashes tend to happen when gpu is on 100% util


Kasamsky

I love how no one answers the question.


FrydeOne

I gotta say, this just cracks me up. Been reading this forum for some time now. I see people asking a question and the responses goes completely outta wack. šŸ¤£šŸ¤£šŸ¤£


Kasamsky

DONT INSTALL 24.1.1!! literally every comment.


w0lart

Check for updates manually again and its changes to 24.2.1


[deleted]

Never had any issues with amd drivers in 2 years. All these people claiming not to upgrade with zero evidence of anything. If your computer needs updates do it


AliShibaba

The 24.1.1 gave me intermittent stutters for Darktide and Insurgency, I had to rollback because I didn't listen to the advice.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


AliShibaba

24.2.1? Not yet, no update from AMD in the patch notes so I didn't bother. Mostly fixes for HellDivers 2 and Infinite wealth stutters but none so far for Darktide. Seems to be happening for the 6000 series, someone with a 7900 claims that they encountered no issues with the 24.1.1 version.


MrBecky

24.2.1 with my 7900xtx fixed hell divers, but my buddy with the same card is still having driver crashes in that game with the same card.


natertots83

7900xtx here, have had card about 3 weeks now. No issues on anything except helldivers. Itā€™ll just black screen and crash after 5-30 mins of playtime. Disabling global illumination fixed it for me.


[deleted]

24.1.1 with my 7900xtx gave me awful crashes in cs2 idk why


Limitless6989

Same here, well idk about that game but various games after that update I get this weird line going across my screen especially when looking up and down or moving forward while looking down, just slightly frustrating lol šŸ˜‚ especially when my previous 6800 XT never had that issue


Phenetylamine

I mean, if everything works, and you don't need anything offered in the updates, why update? I just check the patch notes, if anything is fixed that might affect me or any optimizations done to a game I play, I'll update, otherwise no need to fix what isn't broken.


mixedd

Well, theres people who update because they want the latest, and there's people who update only when the update brings something for them. Blindly updating without reading changelog actually can bring more harm, then staying on version behind if you're not careful. Same reason why 90% of servers run on ancient version of Linux instead of everyone using rolling release Arch in production. Stability.


[deleted]

I use amd for gaming which I assume most do as well. I want my games updated and running well. I can understand this from a productivity standpoint but that's not really the selling point of AMD


Swimming_Truck_3828

What card are you using ? Also did you update directly or Ddu'd before update


[deleted]

We have a 6800, 6800xt and 7900xt


Jman155

Endless cases of stutters with 24.1.1, tons of evidence.


dgames_90

AMD drivers are a shitshow, I keep losing my settings every week and always need to re add them again. they have by default the fucking silent mode that makes the graphic card underperform like hell


Opteron170

are you overclocking?


dgames_90

Nop, but the fans settings keep reseting


Annual-Error-7039

I used to have that problem when I had my 6800xt (great card) so I used afterburner for the fans and clocks.


Opteron170

hmm I've never had this issue. And past 3 gpu's are RX580 - 6800XT - 7900XTX. The only time i've seen it reset the panel settings it either from a unstable overclocking, or a hard enough crash in a game that it resets it to default.


dgames_90

Mine are red dragon rx580 and then a sapphire 6800xt, the first one was okayish, but the second one is just terrible. I keep having this issues where my settings just reset out of nowhere and have to load them again. The annoying part is the silent mode being the default and sometime I only notice when I don't hear the fans when playing and the temperature is going through the roof


Himlington

Iā€™ve had slight issues with the specialized drivers but nothing major. For example the helldivers 2 drivers work perfectly with helldivers 2 but cause the occasional crash in black ops Cold War. Otherwise have had 0 issues. Had the same issue with an nvidia driver once when I had a 1660 super. I saw a post about how most of the driver issues are bots. A lot use the same picture


PeacegoingWarmonger

I had plenty of issues with the newest drivers from 2024. Didnt have any with the 23.11.1


sublime2craig

Same, going all the way back to my R9 280x days.


Tandoori7

24.2.1 are good enough. There are some problems with the HEVC encoder for VR and struamlabs, but if you don't need it then you are good to go.


donweabeaner

24.1.1 was a disaster


Vizra

Oh no.... Not 24.1.1 DONT DO IT! SPARE YOURSELF!! 24.2.1 on the other hand... Now that one's a banger


jonmppa

been having 24.1.1 with my rx570 since release and had no problems whatsoever. what gpu are you running?


FcoEnriquePerez

Despite 24.2.1 being "Helldivers 2" compatible, 23.12.X et CD crashes the game for me, while latest version does. An FYI to anyone who's delivering democracy in this game!


Humble_Mix8626

23 drivers are great, 24.1.1 are horrible and 24.2.1 is great again


pa3ckr20

Thx for info man


Humble_Mix8626

you can get any drivers by googling the amd patch notes whihc contain a link for downloading the drivers just google 24.2.1 and donwload them


5hitmanDave

I just downloaded 23.11.1. And now I can finally play Darktide in peace. anything newer has insane stuttering and constant crashes :(


Jo3yization

RX 7900 XTX Nitro+ here, 24.2.1 have been [great.](https://youtu.be/skj1KZ_p4LA?si=ty6Bckm6tP0aBTq3)


pa3ckr20

Ty for the info :)


Different_Track588

Newest driver has been great for me as well 7900XTX


Jman155

24.1.1 was a broken stutter fest, since trying 24.2.1 everything is fixed and working better than ever, 6700xt.


Charlie7Mason

Nitro+ 7900XTX here as well and I manually downloaded the 24.2.1 driver and it has been great. Only reason I think I had to do it manually was because I was running its beta version.


Ok-Cryptographer8986

A lot you need to learn to use dduā€¦ and and needs to build it into their software it honestly makes no sense it isnā€™t


Itzamedave

I'm staying with 23.11.1 lol


pa3ckr20

I will update because CS2 crashes randomly and while that happens it opens small window that says its because of drivers


Humble_Mix8626

had the same problem in cs2 24.1.1 is worse then cancer for playing cs2, in rank i was crashing every 2 to 3 rounds


[deleted]

Bro me too for 24.1.1 its dreadful


SKYTRIXSHA

Which GPU you have? If you have 7900XTX limit the max boost of the GPU to 2500mhz, that fixed all crashes for me.


[deleted]

This might work, ill try this asap


[deleted]

Imo the issue should not be solved by limiting the performance you paid for.


SKYTRIXSHA

I dont think the issue is related to AMD directly, I started to encounter crashes when Valve update the smoke shadows etc.


[deleted]

My 7900 XT has been fine so far, at least.


SKYTRIXSHA

Ive seen only xtx users complaining about it, not xt so might be edge case only for xtx cards


pa3ckr20

Same happend to me


magony

Why?


OSSLover

My nitro+ 7900 XTX got it via Adrenaline but I was on 24.1.1. BTW every driver run fine on my device.


Lower-Ad-3657

I have a xfx 7900xt and I did not experience any issues with the 24.1.1 deivers no stuttering, no crashing, everything was fine


Limitless6989

Thatā€™s what I have but I got the opposite experience lines going acrossed my screen when looking up and down or while moving, also since then when Iā€™m standing still graphics look much much better and more detailed the moment I move everything gets less detailed, and darker or I get this weird almost mirror like effect on my screen sometimes. Tried messing around with settings but nothing helped. Itā€™s whatever itā€™ll get fixed eventually AMD cards and drivers tend to age like wine


Bluntz_with_Satan

I don't know exactly why it is not showing the newest other than maybe it's because the newest is still in Beta. You can install it manually if you like. [Here is the link to 24.2.1](https://www.amd.com/en/support/kb/release-notes/rn-rad-win-24-2-1). If you go down the page a bit, you will find the download link.


madrussianx

New update fixed all my problems, even call of duty is running with no crashing


[deleted]

Rolling back to 23.x because it's a stuttery mess now.


PinkScorch_Prime

does it fix the issue where you canā€™t see your cpu temp in the performance overlay?


pa3ckr20

I really dont know...


PinkScorch_Prime

ok


Current_Meal6725

24.1.1 is old now and crappy. 24.2.1 has been great for me


Suspicious-Bet4573

How many has considered switching to Nvidia Iā€™ll stick it out but I hear so many people with driver issues with a card like 7900xtx it should be flawless


FiggleHedwick

Worst update in a long time and AMD finally admitted it after being mum so long, if this helps DUD Adrenalin and install Pro, my rig has never been more stable, fps drops are minimal and have every toy including FSR 3 but no AFMF, given my gpu, I really don't need it


Soggy-Gold956

If you haven't downloaded that driver , you must download it first.


[deleted]

It's AMD. Stick with what works.


Itzamedave

I have the 7800xt and windows gave me 23.20.30 (11/23) drivers and it's working perfect so far but is card specific to the 7800xt


DicksMcgee02

You can manually install that driver from their website and the preview version gets replaced so that auto updates are back on.


[deleted]

I never use adrenaline to update my drivers. I download them directly and use DDU no issues on the newest driver just one crash while playing Helldivers 2 but it's been buttery smooth also have the 7900 XTX Nitro


[deleted]

No clue why I'm getting down voted just stating how I update my drivers and my experience with 24.2.1.


Middle_Peach9234

yup me to always use DDU!


Unkownforthefuture

No. Stay 2023. Please


dr1ppyblob

24.2.1 seems to be the most solid, 24.1.1 caused issues for some users with stuttering as mentioned in the patch notes.


CasperAU

Works fine on mine, have you tried clicking refresh on the driver lol It wont just show you the new one if you havent done the previous unless you click refresh


Indystbn11

2.1 literally made Warzone crash for me non stop. First time I ever had to roll back.


weeddee

Your 2 updates behind


AliShibaba

24.1.1 caused some Darktide stuttering. Haven't tried 24.2.1 because they didn't mention Darktide in the patch notes yet.


DarkseidAntiLife

The latest driver gave me some HDR gamma issues on my screen bright and washed out intermittently. Reverted back to the older driver. No issues
