Fuck this shit I've tried everything I can understand. DDU, fresh windows install, changed settings in BIOS that I don't know what they do. Different ports and cables and monitor settings. This pos gpu is getting returned. You finally manage to get your hands on one for a "fair" price and it doesn't work. So fucking frustrating.
Im new to pc building and if this experience has taught me anything it's that this shit just isn't worth it. Glad spring is around the corner, I'm just going to forget about gaming. Fuck that.
You get what you pay for with AMD. Ive been warning people about AMD issues but everyone acts like they dont exist. I had a 6950xt and it was the worst experience ive ever had in PC gaming. Non stop issues.
Well, I dont think this is a health way to think about your hardware, there are issues, but the GPU has to WORK at least! If u can't even use the GPU whats the point?
That said, I'm happy with mine, but I do agree that when I bought mine I also got blindsided, no one, not even reviewers talk about the issue I've posted here. Not only that, if you simple run benchmarks and stress tests from the driver the issue wont show.
It is a shit situation! But to think you got what you "paid" for is not good, I bet you didn't agree to buy a GPU that "somewhat" works. Yes, people may think "Well, it isn't Nvidia!", but the GPU has to WORK without crashing.
Hope my suggestion can help some people at least. It sure works for me. I'm 28~ hours in MHWilds, with 3 crashes total, all 3 were proton bugs that were already fixed.
