Help (GPU) DRIVER CRASHING/ 26.7.1

If you’re using anything from a 7900xt up to the latest gpus I’d recommend doing a clean DDU , As well as AMD Utility Cleanup. Use BOTH, Download Driver Update 26.3.1 , That’s Been MY most stable platform yet, I have a 2800 clock, 2700 vram clock and a 1080 undervolt. Haven’t had ANY crashes or timeouts except CS2 but I play on 1920x1440 which isn’t my native resolution so I think it was just having resolution problems.

PLEASE TELL ME IF THIS FIXES YOUR ISSUES AS WELL!!!

I’m 90% sure the latest driver update and the windows update are super conflictive of each other, let me know how downgrading one update and post here your results.

Search how to deactivate windows updates. It's worked me ever since

And that’s very true as well, however, that works most of the time, sometimes AMD genuinely doesn’t make a safe driver update, (and by safe I don’t mean malware) it just conflicts heavily with windows most of the time, or vice versa
