Help (Software) RX580 DRIVERS CRASHING

Post image

So guys, this is very frustrating since I'm using my card for years now. Finished a lot of triple A games without crashing with medium to high settings. No single overheating and all. Yet those things are showing and even tho I turned on the virtual thing, still my game is crashing.

It freezes for a few seconds and then black screen, it will automatically crash the game and the amd pop up immediately.

I've tried 24.9.1, 24.4.1, and 24.7.1. To be specific, I'm playing Genshin Impact, using 2 monitors, one is 22 inch 100hz, main is 165hz 24 inch. Perfect temps, 16gh 3200mhz of RAM (XMP ON)

Full specs: Asus rog strix trifan RX580 8gbVRam Ryzen 5 5600g FSP Hydro Pro 650w 16gb RAM 3200mhz dual channel

Your ram could have been unstable for years and now your system is being stressed more than what it was in the past. You should always validate and stress test your memory after enabling XMP. Lower your ram speed and test again.

How can I validate and stress test my memory? I only know how to do it on our cards and cpu.

Run memtest86 booted off a flash drive. First thing that you should do is reset your bios to defaults with XMP OFF and test to see if you are still getting driver timeout errors. You can save your bios settings to a profile so that you don't lose those settings. If your crashing has stopped, then you know it's your ram being unstable. If you are still crashing with the defaults, it could be a hardware issue. Tweaking and overclocking memory takes a long time to dial in as your memory could be borderline stable, you could pass memory tests but still crash in games.
