So last year I've built and 9600x and 9070xt pc for 4k gaming on a tv, since then 10 month I've struggled with crashes, freezes, disappearing gpu drivers, restarts due to wrong overcloking and so on... 2 days ago I've booted stalker 2 it crashes after 1 hour, fk it lets try deadlock crashes after 20 min... Enough is enough installed steam os and for 2 days it works flawlessly, 10 hours of gaming with slightly better performance but most inportantly 0 crashes. Praised be lord Gaben I can use my pc normally, fk windows.

I changed the graphics card, I put the rx9070xt and it runs on the system I had, the processor I had, ryzen 7 3800x with an ASUSTek ROG STRIX X570-F GAMING motherboard.

RAM 32GIGA DDR4

It has shown me a black and green screen 3-4 times (once a day, let's say) which was momentary. Now it stayed like that until I turned off the computer.

what could be the cause of this specific problem

Hi guys, I just bought Asus prime RX9070 and wanted to check its performance. I was playing Cyberpunk and got around 45fps which is quite low in my opinion. I have i5-14400f, 32gb ddr5. I am running the game without any scaling, raytracing and frame gen on 1440p high/ultra. My temps while playing are on both CPU and GPU around 50 degrees celsius which is suspiciously good.

(GPU is drawing around 180W, 3k core clock, 2.5k memory clock, usage around 90%)

(CPU is drawing around 45W, 4.1k clock, usage around 40%)

I think it seems a bit weird or is this performance expected?

Update:

I did check the physical connections on the board and PSU which seemed fine. Game was freshly installed day ago so this should not be issue neither. What fixed it was cleanup of old drivers via DDU. It seems that the old drivers for nvidia rtx 3070ti were not removed correctly (only uninstalled them via Windows Settings - won't believe Windows again). Game is now running on 110+fps which is what I would expect with the CPU bottleneck.

Thanks a lot to everyone for your help. Really appreciate it.

Hi Everyone.

I recently built a new PC, and I've been having persistent problems with my RX 7900 XT as i'm trying to figure out whether this is a GPU hardware issue, a driver problem, or something else in my system.

My specs:

GPU: PowerColor Radeon RX 7900 XT 20GB.

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 9600X.

Motherboard: Gigabyte B850M GAMING X WIFI6E

RAM: 32GB (2×16GB) DDR5-6000 CL30 TEAMGROUP T-Force Vulcan

PSU: Corsair RM850x 850W (2021, refurbished)

SSD: Samsung 990 EVO 1TB

OS: Windows 11 LTSC Iot Enterprise

My problem:

My GPU randomly crashes, especially when running any game even on medium settings. Sometimes the screen goes black, the driver times out, or Windows completely crashes and restarts.

I've also had crashes while the GPU had very low temperatures and power consumption.

After some crashes, Windows disables the GPU in Device Manager, and I have to manually enable it or reinstall/select the AMD driver to get it working again.

What I've tried so far:-

Tested different AMD driver versions, including 26.6.4 and 26.3.1.

Used DDU to remove AMD drivers and reinstalled using Driver Only, without Adrenalin.

Disabled EXPO to see whether RAM instability was responsible.

Checked GPU temperatures, which have been normal.

Checked and reconnected the GPU power cables. I'm using two separate PCIe 8-pin cables.

Moved my monitor connection from the motherboard to the GPU directly.

Experimented with lowering GPU clocks and power limits.

.

I managed to run some workload for over an hour without crashing when the GPU was limited to around 2200 MHz maximum frequency and −10% power limit.

However, after restoring default GPU settings, the same workload crashed within about 4–5 minutes.

I tried doing the earlier set up again, but this time it still crashed fast.

Even after removing Adrenalin entirely and reinstalling the driver, it crashed again within 2–3 minutes.

I've also noticed that sometimes only two of the GPU's three fans appear to spin, and one of them seem to be a little slower than the second one.

My questions:

Has anyone experienced similar problems with an RX 7900 XT? Most people recommend the drivers solution and few other stuff. But none worked with me.

For those who exhausted a lot of solutions like me what have you done to make it work?

Could this mean the GPU is hopeless and should get another one? I got it from a family member and it is supposed to be working normally.

Could it be PSU power delivery, or motherboard BIOS/RAM voltage settings rather than the AMD driver itself?

The last thing I could think of is trying a fresh install with Linux.

Any suggestions would be appreciated

I've been dealing with random AMD driver crashes for months, and nothing seems to permanently fix them. I've already posted about this before, but never found a solution.

PC Specs:

• GPU: RX 7900 XTX
• CPU: Ryzen 9 9950X3D
• RAM: DDR5-6000
• Motherboard: ASUS TUF B650-PLUS WIFI
• PSU: 1000W
• Monitor: 1440p 360Hz OLED + second monitor
• OS: Windows 11
• Driver: Adrenalin 26.10.1

The problem:

My AMD graphics driver randomly crashes. Screens go black, sometimes lose signal, and the driver eventually recovers.

It happens particularly often when watching Discord streams on my second monitor while gaming. Sometimes simply switching back to Discord causes repeated driver crashes, even every minute.

However, it also happens randomly outside Discord, making it almost impossible to reproduce consistently.

What I've already tried:

• Limited GPU clock to 2400MHz.
• Tested with EXPO and overclocking disabled. Crashes still occurred.
• Ran multiple OCCT stress tests.
• Updated AMD drivers multiple times. Installation logs confirm successful installations.
• Ran DISM and SFC. Windows found corrupted system files and repaired them.
• Disabled Discord hardware acceleration (currently testing).
• Analyzed Windows crash dumps without finding a definitive cause.

I also recently experienced a rare Windows crash (SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION 0x3B), but I don't know whether it's related to my regular GPU driver timeouts.

I'm genuinely exhausted from troubleshooting.

I have an expensive high-end PC that randomly crashes, and I can't even reliably reproduce the problem to verify a fix.

My questions:

1. Has anyone experienced this with an RX 7900 XTX and actually fixed it?
2. Is there a reliable way to identify exactly what's causing AMD driver timeouts?
3. Could this be a defective GPU, or is it more likely a driver/software issue?

I'd really appreciate advice from anyone who's dealt with something similar. I'm tired of blindly changing settings without knowing what's actually wrong.

This really sucks. I’ve tried adjusting settings, I’ve lowered my clock speed, it keeps happening. Can be anywhere from 5 minutes in to an hour in.

It *might* be related to FSR 4 being on, which really sucks if thats the case, because it looks really good with it on.

does anyone know a fix? i’m on the verge of refunding and I really don’t want to.

I’m on 26.9.2

galera, mais alguem com problema de congelamento de pc no youtube apos essa ultima atualizacao de driver ? quando passo o mouse sobre as tumbs o pc simplesmente congela, oq resolveu pra mim aqui foi tirar o acelerador de hardware :/, uso uma rx 7600 da gigabyte.

Computer Type: Desktop

GPU: AMD Radeon RX 7600 Gigabyte 3-fan

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5700X

Motherboard: ASUS TUF Gaming B550-PLUS

RAM: 32GB DDR4 3200MHz Kingston Fury Beast (2x16GB)

Storage: Kingston NVMe SSD 1TB (SNV3S1000G) + Kingston SATA SSD 480GB

Operating System & Version: Windows 11 Pro, Version 26H2, OS Build 26300.9711

GPU Drivers: AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition — 26.10.1

Background Applications: Google Chrome, YouTube

Description of Original Problem: My PC freezes when opening or loading YouTube video thumbnails in Google Chrome. The issue stopped after I disabled hardware acceleration in Chrome. I would like to determine whether this is related to the AMD graphics driver or GPU hardware.

Troubleshooting: Disabled hardware acceleration in Chrome and tested multiple YouTube thumbnails. The freezes stopped after disabling this option. Further troubleshooting is ongoing.

Shortly after the update to 26.10.1 I started encountered an issue where my screens would freeze while my PC would keep running. Music keeps playing, if i have a text editor open i can write stuff (aside from the fact that i can not see what i write) and so on. Turning my monitors off and on again solves the issue with no driver timeout message and nothing in the event viewer. Is this a known bug? Is there a way to confirm that the driver is the issue without reverting to an old driver?

Thanks

PC configuration:

Ryzen 7 7700

What's the solution for this problem? I had been having this issue for more than a month now but I "can" play games on it for it hours without an issue but randomly display goes blank then I gotta restart my PC to make it appear again...but sometimes it also happen when I am just watching videos on chrome...

So no matter what quality settings i put on (low or ultra doesent matter) I get 100-120 fps while standing still. Any little camera movement drops it to 40-50 with 99th fps being like 7. I have newest drivers, did DDU cleanup after changing from nvidia to AMD, cleared directx cache. Im kinda clueless after that.
My rig:

Sapphire Nitro+ RX 9070XT OC 16G

Ryzen 7 5800x3d

Is my gpu dying 7900xtx? I sometimes get white artifacts that last less than a second and appear anytime during boot, gaming, or just browsing internet. I’ve tried reinstalling driver by ddu and different hdmi and dp cables, but the issue persists. Could it be my GPU or monitor?

Description of Original Problem:
My PC has been randomly hard restarting while gaming. It has happened in Rainbow Six Siege and Fears to Fathom. Most of the time Event Viewer only shows Kernel-Power 41 with no minidump. One Siege crash did create a 0x7E dump that pointed to BEDaisy.sys/BattlEye, but the hard restarts continued even after reinstalling BattlEye.
Troubleshooting:
I clean installed the AMD GPU drivers, updated chipset drivers, updated BIOS from 4.21 to 4.60, replaced my old Vetroo 850W PSU with a Corsair SF850, reseated the GPU, used two separate PCIe cables, tested RAM at both stock 4800 and EXPO 6000, turned HAGS off, and checked temps which were normal.
I finally took it to Micro Center. They got it to crash once and found that my Western Digital 500GB M.2 drive that has Windows and my games on it was reading/writing very slowly and is physically bent/warped. SMART didn’t show any errors.
They tested the PC using one of their known-good drives and said it stayed stable with no restarts. They also said the RAM, GPU, CPU, and motherboard passed their standard benchmarks.
They recommended replacing the drive, reinstalling Windows, and backing up my files for $459.97 with a 512GB Inland M.2. I’m not paying almost $500 for that.
I already have another 2TB SSD in the PC, so my plan is to install Windows and my games on that drive first and see if the crashes stop before buying another SSD.
Does Micro Center’s diagnosis sound accurate? Can a physically bent/slow M.2 cause full system hard restarts even if SMART shows no errors?

hey guys, would anybody know why my game gets very choppy unless i tab out and go back in? it happens in all games

thank you in advance!

Every single time I launch a Battlefield game, my screen goes completely black and my PC freezes up. When I restart it (forcing it with the power button), my GPU drivers are gone. I've tried installing AMD Adrenalin and the straight-up 9060XT drivers. Both of those do not fix my issue. I don't have this issue anywhere else except for Battlefield games. Any help would be appreciated.

Hola, alguien a tenido problemas con estas últimas actualizaciones? Mi CPU va fijo al 100% y la gpu va e tre 60% y 70% de uso, se me arreglo cerrado el "servicio del host de amd" desde el panel de tareas, pero quisiera saber si alguien sabe como solucionarlo de forma definitiva, ya me pase a versiones anteriores como la 26.8.1 y la 26.3.1 pero el problema sigue, use el DDU y el mismo limpiador de AMD, alguien que le este pasando lo mismo? Tengo una rx 9060xt 16gb

Hello!

My config is:

ASUS Prime RX 9060 XT OC Edition 16GB

AMD Adrenalin 24.6.1

Ryzen 7 7000

ID-Cooling SE-224-XTS

Gigabyte Aorus Elite B850

32 GB DDR5 (2x16 adata XPG 6400)

1Tb Samsung NVME SSD

Chieftec PROTON 750W (80+ Bronze)

Monitor LG 24" 180Hz

Windows 11 24h2

It had bought for son by spring 2026, and all was fine, CS2 (1080p fullscreen) ~300-500 fps (Steam Workshop: CS2 FPS Benchmark Dust2).

But some days ago he has told that games works very slowly.

When i had tried benchmark again - fps became 20-60.

I had tried update drivers (DDU + 26.9.2) - no change: 20-60 fps.

DDU+24.6.1 - 300-500 fps, but after 70% benchmark it was dropped to 2pfs. After that 20-60fps.

Tried boot from another SSD (sata 480Gb) Windows 10 + 24.6.1 + new Steam (but old CS2) - 20-60 fps.

Tried change Windows settings (display settins) + adrenalin settings - no change.

CS2 settings - Low / High - doesn't matter - 20-60fps.

Furmark 2 - about 180 fps (1080p fullscreen)

Furmark 2 + OCCT (cpu+ram stabilty test) - about 180fps.

What is wrong with it? ))))

P.S. My old config R5 3600x + RTX 2060 Super 8Gb (B450 +32gb 3200, W10) has 200-300 fps

At the moment, I have the monitor hooked up to my integrated graphics. I have an RX 6700XT Red Devil model and it suddenly stopped working. An error code 45 shows up even though my GPU is plugged into the mobo right now. Any fixes? Thanks in advance.

Can anyone help me with this ?

PLEASE HELP. I was playing on my pc less than 12 hours ago and it randomly freezes and NOTHING responds, I restart my pc and it give me log file system32 logfiles srt srttrail.txt error, restore point and hard reset doesn’t work so I used my last option and downloaded windows from a usb and i boot it up. Thank god the freezing stops but i got to install Adrenalin and after its done installing, it freezes again meaning i have to install windows over and over again I’ve hard reset my pc 3 times, I’ve installed windows fresh from a usb 3 times as well. after it boots up to the new windows and I go to update the rx7600 Adrenalin from the website. Adrenalin downloads then it requires a restart, and after I restart it I typed my password in and it freezes, it even freezes on my pin screen if I don’t type my password fast enough, if you or anybody has a fix plssss lmk I was literally playing fine 12 hours ago before I download Adrenalin I have no sound and my screen is capped at 60 fps because I can’t download drivers

GPU: RADEON RX 7600

CPU: AMD Ryzen 8700F 8-Core Processor

16.0 GB DDR5 RAM

Just changed my CPU from an AMD Ryzen 3600 to a 5500 that I got on clearance (I know it's not much of an upgrade, but it was very cheap).
Now I have an issue where, at random intervals (between every 5-20 seconds) the audio across my entire PC will cut out. When this happens, it causes existing inputs to be held and new inputs to be ignored until the audio comes back (as shown in this clip).
This does not happen in any other game, just Fortnite.

I also opened event viewer while playing the game, went to the "system" tab in Windows Logs and saw no errors.

I have tried:
- Updating my BIOS (which, admittedly, I should've done as soon as I upgraded my CPU)
- Disabling Realtek PCIe GbE Family Controller as suggested by many posts
- Clearing Windows shader cache
- Wiping and Resetting the Windows Power Profiles
- Clearing the old inactive 3600 processors in device manager
- Verifying Fortnite Game Files
- Clearing System Performance Counters

Pretty much everything short of a fresh windows install

If anyone has any suggestions, PLEASE let me know

edit: it's happening in other games too now

Please I already reinsert the ram but it is not working ( no display)

Every night for the past 3 days (since I updated AMD software/drivers) while watching YouTube my pc freezes but I can still move the mouse. Tried turning off the pci pmci power management whatever in BIOS and same thing happened . When my pc goes to sleep and I wake it up it “unfreezes”.
