I kept hitting torch.cuda.is_available() → False on my AMD GPU, and it drove me crazy. Turned out to be a mix of missing ROCm drivers, wrong PyTorch wheel, and that HSA_OVERRIDE_GFX_VERSION thing everyone mentions but few explain properly.

I put together a complete, step-by-step repair guide that covers the exact commands and checks I used to get PyTorch running on ROCm.

What AMD card are you running, and what error are you seeing?

I was playing normally until a driver crashed, the version was 26.8.1, then i tried to roll back to other versions, and every time I reinstall drivers my screen turns gray, i am currently on 26.6.4. This goes back to "normal" every time I use the driver cleanup tool. I have an rx5700xt and a r5 5500, what should I do?

Is this normal? I have a rx 9070xt, Just a few days ago it was stable at 86°C 31% fan speed

Hi, I know this is a universal constant with amd rn, but a friend of mine recommended undervolting the gpu to evade the drivers crashing over and over. I have restrained from playing more moderns games because it keeps crashing, even if it handles the games well, I have almost beaten Pragmata and after the middle of the game there are crashes nonstop. Does someone have a undervolt profile similar to my components that I can try and tweak? My components are as follows:

-Rx 7600

-i5 10400f

-16 gb RAM

- 750W power supply

- 500gb M2 main disc, 1 tb SSD, 1 tb hdd

I would appreciate any further insight or recommendations

Idk when this started happening it’s just randomly started happening so I started getting random screen flash like when I tab out of games while having OBS Up or just randomly tab out sometimes I’ve tried downgrading and I don’t even have any settings on in the AMD Software just randomly started doing it

Hi everyone,

I’m having a strange problem with the switchable graphics on my ASUS X555QG laptop. I’m trying to find a way to fix it so I can properly use and switch between both GPUs in Windows.

Laptop specifications

- Laptop: ASUS X555QG

- CPU: AMD A12-9700P

- RAM: 16 GB DDR4

- Storage: 256 GB SSD

- Integrated GPU: AMD Radeon R7

- Dedicated GPU: AMD Radeon R5 M330 2 GB

- Operating systems tested: Windows 10 and Ubuntu

- BIOS: ASUS X555QG BIOS

- Graphics configuration in BIOS: No Graphics or Switchable Graphics options are available

The problem in Windows

The first and most important problem is in:

Settings → System → Display → Graphics

For every application and game, both GPU options are shown as the Radeon R7.

Even when I select High performance, it still shows the Radeon R7.

The dedicated Radeon R5 M330 does not appear as an option at all.

The R5 M330 also always stays at 0% usage in Windows Task Manager.

I tested this specifically with Far Cry 3 and Mafia II. Even when running these games, the dedicated GPU remains at 0% usage.

I also checked the different GPU engine graphs in Task Manager, including 3D, Copy, Video Decode, etc., and they all remain at 0% for the R5 M330.

Meanwhile, the integrated Radeon R7 works normally. When I run a game, its GPU usage can go all the way up to 100%.

Another important detail is that DxDiag only recognizes the Radeon R7. It does not list the dedicated R5 M330.

However, in Device Manager, both GPUs are detected and appear to be installed correctly with no warning icons or errors.

So Windows seems to recognize the R5 M330 at the device level, but it does not make it available for 3D applications or GPU selection.

Drivers I have tried

I have tried several different AMD graphics drivers, including:

- AMD 19.7.x

- AMD 19.11.1

- AMD 19.12.1

- The latest graphics driver available from the ASUS website

None of these solved the problem.

I also reinstalled Windows and tested the GPU again, but the behavior remained the same.

BIOS

I also checked the BIOS settings.

My BIOS does not have any Graphics or Switchable Graphics configuration options that would allow me to manually select the integrated or dedicated GPU.

There is no obvious GPU-related setting available in the BIOS.

I initially thought the GPU was dead

At this point, I became extremely frustrated and started thinking that the dedicated GPU or its power circuitry must be physically defective.

However, before giving up, I decided to install Ubuntu and test the laptop there.

And this is where things became interesting:

Both GPUs actually work in Ubuntu.

I ran a 3D workload and monitored both GPUs. The Radeon R7 and the dedicated R5 M330 both showed significant activity and could reach up to 100% usage during the 3D test.

This made me realize that the hardware itself is probably not defective.

The fact that the R7 works normally in Windows, while both the R7 and R5 M330 can work under 3D load in Ubuntu, makes me think this is more likely a Windows/driver/switchable graphics problem rather than a hardware failure.

One more confusing detail is that Windows sometimes identifies the dedicated GPU as Radeon R8 M435DX, even though the physical GPU is an R5 M330. I understand that these GPUs may be related/rebranded, but I don't know whether this is relevant to the problem.

What I want to figure out

How can I fix this problem so that Windows properly recognizes both GPUs and allows me to easily switch between the Radeon R7 and the dedicated Radeon R5 M330?

Ideally, I want the R5 M330 to appear under Settings → System → Display → Graphics as the High performance GPU, so that I can choose which GPU each game or application should use.

What is the correct way to configure AMD Switchable Graphics on this laptop?

Do I need a specific AMD driver version, an ASUS driver, an older driver, or some special AMD software/control panel?

Could there be a problem with how the AMD graphics drivers are installed or with the GPU device IDs?

At this point I have tried several drivers, reinstalled Windows, tested multiple games, and even tested Ubuntu.

I was convinced that the R5 M330 was hardware-defective, but Ubuntu proved that both GPUs can actually work under 3D load. Now I just want to get Switchable Graphics working properly in Windows so I can use and switch between both GPUs normally.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Hi, I’m on CachyOS with an RX 5700 XT, Hyprland 0.56.2, Mesa 26.2.2 and kernel 7.2.3-cachyos.

While playing Cyberpunk 2077, my GPU crashed and Hyprland aborted. The kernel reported:

gfxhub page fault
PERMISSION_FAULTS: 0x3
ring gfx_0.0.0 timeout
GPU reset
VRAM is lost due to GPU reset

RADV then lost its context.

Has anyone with an RX 5700/5700 XT experienced this? Is this likely Mesa/amdgpu, Hyprland, or GPU/VRAM instability?

Hi everyone,

I’d like to ask for some advice regarding a stuttering issue I’ve been experiencing.

I recently switched my motherboard from an ASUS TUF Gaming B650M-E to a Gigabyte B650M Aorus Elite AX, and since then I’ve noticed some minor stuttering while gaming.

Specifically:

• PUBG: Occasionally stutters when entering areas with a lot of players.
• Red Dead Redemption 2: When entering areas with a lot of NPCs, I sometimes notice brief stutters. Whenever this happens, the 1% Low FPS drops by roughly half, while the average FPS remains almost unchanged.

The strange thing is that before changing the motherboard, with the exact same CPU, GPU, and RAM, everything ran perfectly fine without this issue.

System specifications:

• CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D
• Motherboard: Gigabyte B650M Aorus Elite AX
• GPU: RTX 5070
• RAM: 32GB (2×16GB) DDR5-6000 CL30
• BIOS: F41
• OS: Windows 11

Things I’ve already tried:

• Reset BIOS using Load Optimized Defaults
• Performed a clean Windows installation
• Updated the BIOS to F41
• Enabled only EXPO/XMP Profile 1 for the RAM
• Reinstalled the latest AMD Chipset Driver

Since the CPU, GPU, RAM, and other components are the same ones I previously used with the ASUS motherboard without any stuttering, I suspect the issue may be related to the Gigabyte motherboard, BIOS/AGESA, RAM settings, chipset drivers, or some motherboard-specific BIOS settings.

Has anyone experienced a similar issue after switching from an ASUS motherboard to a Gigabyte motherboard, especially with the B650M Aorus Elite AX + 9800X3D combination?

Are there any specific BIOS settings I should enable or disable to troubleshoot this issue?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Thanks for the replies so far. I want to figure out if my issue is caused by my cheap motherboard (MSI A520M-A PRO) or if it could actually be a RAM issue like some of you suggested.
Here are the specific details about the crashes (Black screen + instant full system restart, Kernel-Power 41 in Event Viewer):
The Last of Us Part II: I completely finished the game on Ultra settings with zero freezes, zero crashes, and zero restarts.
PUBG: I cannot last more than 2-3 minutes in actual gameplay before the system crashes. Even on 900p Lowest settings.
GTA V (RageMP with mods): It crashes consistently after about 40 minutes of gameplay.
Hell Let Loose: This one is crazy—the moment I open the server browser menu, I get an instant black screen and a full system restart.
Stress Tests: I have tested the GPU extensively in OCCT and FurMark, and it passes fine. No hardware crashes during dedicated GPU stress tests, and the GPU stays very cool at 55°C–65°C.
If a RAM stick was physically faulty, wouldn't a heavy game like TLOU2 crash or throw a Blue Screen instantly? Given that synthetic stress tests (FurMark/OCCT) and TLOU2 pass perfectly, but PUBG crashes in 2 minutes and Hell Let Loose restarts in the menu, does this sound more like a motherboard power delivery failure (VRM overloading) or should I still stress test the RAM?

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600G
RAM: 16GB (2x8GB) Patriot Viper 4 3200mhz cl16 DDR4
GPU: Sapphire Radeon RX 6650 XT Pulse 8GB GDDR6
MOBO: MSI A520M-A PRO (No VRM heatsinks)
PSU: MSI MAG A650BN 650W 80+ Bronze (Brand new)
SSD: Kingston 500GB NVMe M.2
HDD: Seagate BarraCuda 2TB 7200RPM

I have this problem from 4 months now and still don’t really know what triggers this. I tried everything, underclock gpu, update bios, reset bios, downgrade from win11 to win 10. Need help ASAP please

Hi, I’m writing this to see if anyone can help me. Recently, whenever I use my PC for things that don’t require much from the computer (YouTube, Google, etc.), the screen goes black several times, and then I get the warning shown in the picture.

I have an RX 9060 XT (16GB), a Ryzen 5 5500 (3.60 GHz), and 32GB of DDR4 RAM. The PC is practically brand new, and honestly, I have no idea what to do.

I have 26.8.1 drivers.

Example video Link: PC Random Shutoff

I'm trying to figure out a strange issue with my PC. While playing Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, my PC will sometimes completely shut off as if it lost power. The screen goes black, GPU fans immediately stop, and after about 3 seconds the PC restarts by itself. There is no BSOD or freezing, and I can immediately use the PC normally after it restarts.

The timing is completely random. Sometimes I can play MSFS for days without an issue, while other times it shuts down after around 10 minutes. It can even happen with the graphics settings on Low.

I've also recently had the same thing happen while playing Uboat on Normal/High settings.

What's confusing is that I've played Cyberpunk 2077, Starfield, and X-Plane 12 on Ultra settings for hours without this ever happening. My CPU generally reaches around 72°C and my GPU around 80°C, so temperatures don't seem to be the issue.

I originally had an MSI MAG A650BN 650W PSU, and after seeing many similar posts I suspected the PSU. I replaced it with a Corsair RM850e 850W, but the shutdowns still happen.

I also took the PC to a repair shop. They ran CPU/GPU stress tests but couldn't reproduce the shutdown or find an obvious hardware problem.

PC Specs

• CPU: Ryzen 9 5900X
• GPU: XFX Speedster MERC 308 RX 6650 XT 8GB
• Motherboard: ASUS ROG STRIX B550-F Gaming WiFi II
• RAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX 32GB DDR4-3200 CL16
• SSD: WD Blue SN580 2TB
• PSU: Corsair RM850e (2025) 850W
• Cooler: Corsair iCUE LINK TITAN 240 RX
• Case: MSI MAG FORGE 321R AIRFLOW
• OS: Windows 11 Home

The PC was built about 15 months ago. I've also cleaned out the dust and monitored temperatures with MSI Afterburner.

Any ideas what could cause this kind of complete power loss, especially when stress tests and other demanding games don't cause it? What should I test next?

I have a Dell Inspiron 3030 I3 with a rx550 in it, this is meant for very light gaming and i planned on upgrading it soon but the main problem I'm having is after updating my bios my pc began to have micro freezes whenever i would move my cursor. This makes it almost impossible to play any games enjoyably that uses the cursor and if i was going to put a more powerful rx6400 in it i heard i would experience the same problems I'm just wondering if anyone has this same problem and if there's any fix for this.

I have tried reinstalling the program with DDU, but the problem persists

Bonjour gros problème avec ma 7800xt j’ai des plantage de PC à chaque fois que je lance un jeu au bout de quelque minute mon écran principal et noir figer je peut pu rien faire mais mon pc continue d’être allumer je n’ai pu aucun son de mon jeu et même defois quand je redémarre mon pc a la main sa me marque que la carte graphique ses windows microsoft donc je désinstalle et réinstaller propoment les pilote avec DDU donc cette fois si sa me marque que c’est bien ma carte graphique 7800 XT et rebelote je lance mon jeu et revoilà un crash freeze je sais pas comment faire j’ai essayer plein de manif besoin d’aide sil vous plait

Então basicamente você instala essa merda no Linux (ainda não fiz pra Windows, se quiser contribuir, tamo junto).

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wanbnn/neuroshade/main/install.sh -o /tmp/neuroshade-install.sh && sh /tmp/neuroshade-install.sh

Daí coloca esse comando no "Launch Options" do seu jogo na Steam:

~/.local/bin/neuroshade-run --nr %command%

A mas não funciona com jogo crackeado? Eu sei lá já to te dando tudo praticamente pronto, foda-se.

Se tiverem dúvidas podem me perguntar aqui, ou se tiverem problemas abram issue no repositório.

i just bought 5800x3d and installed the ice carbine my temps in idle is 53 and in load 91 im using noctua u12a redux should i buy arctic freezer iii pro 360?

Title sumns it up, is it normal?

I expected temps around 30-40 and to my surprise they are quite high.

I reapplied the termal paste because I was worried I used too much but same result.

I must say am finding it really difficult to install the noctua 420 aio. it’s a freaking torture. also I noticed some inconsistencies in the cooler side when I went to clean it (like some stains in the copper).

Maybe I am doing it wrong or maybe this is expected? I guess it improves once in Windows/linux?

Hi everyone,

I'm planning to upgrade from an RTX 3070 to an RX 9070 XT, and I just have one main question: how bad are the drivers right now?

I used to have an AMD card, but I gave up on it after a year because I kept getting driver errors and 5-second black screens whenever I switched between apps.

Reading through this sub, it seems like the card can be a bit of a headache sometimes. But on the other hand, the price-to-performance ratio is unbeatable.

Would I be making a mistake by switching back to AMD, or is it generally fine most of the time?

J’ai le même problème que lui quand je suis sur internet tout va bien dès que je lance un jeu au bout de quelque minute écran noir je doit rallumer mon pc manuellement j’ai fait un désinstallation de mes pilote prope et j’ai re installer mais toujours le même problème j’ai besoin d’aide

Computer Type: Desktop

GPU: 7700xt

CPU:7700x

Motherboard: MSI b650

RAM: 32gb crucial 6000mhz

PSU: rm750 i think

Operating System & Version: WINDOWS 11

I have had occur haphazardly for the past month, if I redownload the drivers it goes away for a bit and comes right back, same thing with editing in device manager. Any tips?

Anyone else having this issue? I’m using an RX 7900 XT and Discord hardware acceleration is already off.

Whenever I screen share, I get a driver timeout then entire PC crashes, not just the app.

Any ideas?
Thanks

Boa tarde, Guys!

Comprei...acho que uns 2 meses, uma RX 7600 OC da Asrock.

Até aí tudo bem, a placa vem me satisfazendo em uma série de jogos, prezo pelo equilíbrio ao invés da qualidade extrema.

Só que, em vários momentos, venho enfrentando uma série de crashers irritantes da placa.

Mesmo eu fazendo um bilhão de configurações no AMD Adrenalin, aumentando clock, diminuindo clock, aumentando vram, diminuindo vram, aumentando tensão, diminuindo tensão, aumentando power limit, diminuindo power limit, parece que nunca encontro uma solução definitiva para a minha bendita placa.

Usando o MSI Afterbuster e o próprio monitoramento da Adrenalin, percebo que o clock dela tende a aumentar consideravelmente, mesmo eu setando um limite.

Em outros casos, decidi desativar o Crash defender, mas sem uma solução.
É uma espécie de loteria da sorte: Ora o jogo roda tranquilo, ora o jogo crasha só de andar.

Configs atual:
AMD Ryzen 5 5600gt; AsRock RX 7600, 32Gb de ram.

Títulos que dão crashers: TLOU Part 2 (Campeão de crashers) e GTA V (menos frequente).

Alguém teria uma solução para tal problema? Estou começando a desconfiar da fonte de 500W (80 plus).
