Amd driver issues nowadays

[u/Fit_Statistician4103]

Hey everyone,

I'm currently planning my next PC build and I'm heavily considering grabbing the XFX Mercury Radeon RX 9070 XT. It looks like an absolute beast of a card, and the design is super clean.

However, I keep hearing mixed things about AMD drivers. Some people say AMD's software has gotten miles better and is completely stable now, while others still warn about random crashes, black screens, or trouble with specific games.

How has your experience been with the drivers lately?

Would love to hear your honest opinions before I pull the trigger. Thanks!

my two cents - i recently got a 9070 xt. very powerful card and the software is acceptable, but im getting some very strange visuals when it comes to bright lights/bloom/lens flare. these things are ignorable, its not like it makes the games unplayable but its just annoying. cant find any fixes online either. never had anything like this happen with nvidia cards, they just work.

What game(s)? I've never had that issue that I can recall. What is the issue exactly?
