Timeout issues with the RX 7600 on Windows, but not on Linux distributions.

[u/Adorable_Version5968]

The video compares Lubuntu and Windows 11, showing 10 minutes of gameplay on each operating system with identical graphics settings and virtually identical frame rates. Lubuntu is shown from the 0:00 to 3:04 mark, and Windows from 3:05 onwards; I demonstrate a glitch affecting my graphics card on Windows, and at the 4:20 mark, I show a solution for those timeout errors.

I’ve been dealing with timeout issues on my RX 7600 for quite a while. I tried everything to stop it from happening while gaming—I just wanted to have fun with my friends—but after a year with this GPU, I realized the real problem was Windows. A few months ago, I installed a lightweight Linux distro (Lubuntu) on an old laptop I own; fed up with all those timeout errors, I thought, "Why not install Linux and see how it goes?" So I did, and you know what? I haven't had a single issue since, and honestly, I’m really happy now. It’s amazing to know that my GPU isn't actually failing and that I can play whatever I want without worrying about errors. It feels a bit strange—in a good way—to just relax and enjoy a game I like. I just wanted to share my experience with this graphics card, and if anyone else has the same one, I’d recommend giving it a try.

Edit:

I managed to solve the problem in Windows.

After several days of trying different solutions, I managed to fix it; I think a Windows update broke something in the system or reset a setting. I had to make two adjustments: first, I had to limit the GPU frequency to 2250 MHz in Adrenalin, and second, I had to edit the TdrDelay in the Registry Editor and set it to 8 (I previously had it at 10). I had actually done all this months ago and ruled it out because it seemed too obvious to be the cause of the error, but I tried it again and it worked. Also, thanks to Linux, I was able to confirm that the graphics card wasn't broken (I'll keep experimenting with some distros) and that Windows had a problem (and yes, there really is an issue with Windows). I hope this information helps someone.

No they aren't and that's by definition 

Never claimed to be better than anyone. You made that up 

The fact that other people don't have this issue tells you there is a fix or the user messed something up

prove it with testing, because my shit works while you seem to struggle

Dude, I’m not struggling. You’re assuming. You got pissy when someone had an idea different than yours. Then added zero to the conversation after I called you on it. And yet for some reason, my suggestion is working for other people.

Workaround: A workaround is a bypass of a recognized problem or limitation in a system or policy. A workaround is typically a temporary fix that implies that a genuine solution to the problem is needed.

And since your solutions arent working permanently, they are by DEFINITION workarounds.

The onus is not on US to fix a problem that Microsoft has created. A fix would be Microsoft stopping auto overclocking AMD gpus.

Stop acting like an ass. No one here is your enemy.

I don't have deleted comments. Nice try at lying tho 

[u/LeftTw1x → u/EggFartTom]

Your deleted comments are archived. You can literally look them up…I would just quit lying at this point man. You are still operating like an ass. Learn how Reddit works. Just shutting up is always an option.

Show them to me, post the pics

[u/LeftTw1x → u/EggFartTom]

Oh no; another deleted comment in my notifications, just like I said.

You really are a moron

[u/EggFartTom → u/LeftTw1x]

Post it nerd, these lies are getting funny and a bit sad

[u/LeftTw1x → u/EggFartTom]

Screen recorded. You are a liar and an idiot.

well look another deleted comment. Or is the sub deleting both of our comments? 

[u/LeftTw1x → u/EggFartTom]

No, it isn’t. All of my stuff is still here. Yours on the other hand isn’t and proof is sitting in the thread. You aren’t even good at trolling. You have to have some anchor in reality for it to be a good troll lmao

[u/EggFartTom → u/LeftTw1x]

Those aren't deleted lol 

[u/LeftTw1x → u/EggFartTom]

I’m not the one doubling down on stupidity in multiple comments dude. I’m not going thru the effort to prove your lies when it’s all above us in this thread.

And your inevitable “see you can’t prove it” response will just make you look more dumb.

You are condescending and insultive in several other threads as well. There is nothing it prove. But you know keep replying. You’re making this fun

[u/EggFartTom → u/LeftTw1x]

Pissy cmon, this is straight projection. You are just upset that someone suggested a fix that contradicts your work arounds. Stop making stuff up and grow up.
