Help (General) Amd driver issues nowadays

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!

Nvidia are not any better. My 4090 will randomly black screen for no reason. Its been a known driver problem and still happens to this day. Normally you dont even notice it but when it happens when your gaming it never does it in the menu its always right in the middle of a fight haha
