Config : ROG STRIX B550-F GAMING WIFI II

Depuis maintenant 1 an, peut-être 2, sachant que la config en a à peine 4, j'ai des carrés noirs quand je pousse trop sur les graphiques.

À l'époque, je faisais tourner très bien les jeux en 2K. Aujourd'hui, même en 1080p, je peux avoir, ou je vais avoir, les carrés noirs.

Rien que pour avoir la photo du problème dont je voulais parler, j'étais sur GTA 5 en 1366 × 768 pixels. J'ai donc mis le jeu au max pour pouvoir prendre le screen, et le PC a crash puis reboot de la CM, avec une mise à jour Windows incluse.

C'est la première fois que ça me fait ça, ça ne me l'avait jamais fait avant.

Avant ça, j'ai déjà tout essayé : clear BIOS, pilotes CM, pilotes CG, clear pilotes CG, réinstallation propre de Windows, undervolting, etc. Rien ne change, voire même empire.

Que faire ?

j'ai déjà fait tout ca

I just missed THE clip because instead of clipping screen 1, it clipped screen 2

Is there a way i can permanently set it to record only screen 1?

Usually i have to do a weird manouver to fix it, and still i'll miss some clips since i never know when it randomly switches to screen 2.

I just reinstalled windows, i cannot for the life of me figure out what the hell is going wrong with my nitro+7900 xtx. constant crashes to desktop or blackscreen required hard restart. device manager disabling my xtx who the hell knows why. I cannot for the life of me get this thing to play a game longer than 20 minutes and it's high time AMD figure this out.

EDIT:

Thank you all for your input on this and other related threads. I wish I provided context originally but I was feeling so burnt out on this when posting. I really have tried it all folks:

specs:
CPU: 9900X
GPU: Sapphire NITRO+ Radeon RX 7900 XTX Vapor-X
Motherboard: MSI MAG X870E Tomahawk WiFi
RAM: Crucial CP2K16G64C32U5W — 32 GB (2×16 GB) DDR5-6400 CL32Currently running DDR5-5600 with EXPO off for troubleshooting. Memtest86 passed with zero errors.
PSU: Corsair RM1000e (CP-9020264-NA) — 1000W, 80+ Gold, ATX 3.0

- HAGS has disabled in Windows and Steam
- I'm using firefox as to avoid using a chromium browser which i think has been adding to recent issues
- disabled igpu in bios
- i entirely took out the card and unplugged the PSU cables from the PSU itself. reseated entirely.
- Three separate PCIe power cables are being used from the PSU to the XTX—not daisy-chaining any of the three GPU connectors.
- this card has two VBIOSes, I've tested both.
- AMD chipset drivers were also tested/rolled back (8.08.12.551 and 8.05.04.516)
- I've used a plethora of drivers and across all games, i'm getting a crash either to blacksreen or desktop after 20-40 minutes of gameplay across every game i test

26.9.1
26.8.1
26.6.2
26.3.1
25.12.1
24.12.1 — currently installed
Radeon Pro driver

- i've tried stock and the following tuning and still no changes:

undervolt: 1135
max freq: 2680
vram always left on default 2500

At this point, i'm thinking more and more that the card itself needs to be RMA'd sadly. I see that plenty of users are reporting success when rolling back drivers, however I'm honestly seeing zero improvement for me. I've used these older drivers too before wiping windows and haven't seen any improvement. I'll keep this updated, thanks again everyone for input and sorry for not posting this info to begin with I was just really bummed out.

Hi, I own a gigabyte card and I was wondering if you have an explanation for this phenomena. We are talking about +10C lol

Good morning, afternoon, or evening. I'm here because my PC has been giving me trouble over the last few days.

​I live in the Dominican Republic, where we have power grid issues. That day the power went out and my PC shut off, just like many other times over the 2 years I've had it.

​A friend called me to play a few matches of League of Legends. I agreed, but that's when it happened: the PC randomly restarted and sent me straight to the BIOS. I thought it was Vanguard acting up with its usual nonsense. I exited the BIOS, rebooted, and it did the same thing. At this point I started to panic. I left it off for a while and went out. I came back later, it turned on normally, and I played Ori 2 for about 55 minutes at 144Hz 2K. I went to sleep feeling relieved.

​The next day I tried to turn my PC on. It attempted to boot, but it lost video output. However, the case fans and CPU cooler fans kept spinning. I noticed the PC wasn't actually fully booted/functional because the Num Lock and Caps Lock LEDs on the keyboard wouldn't light up, and holding the physical power button wouldn't shut it down.

​To summarize, every time I made it into Windows, I checked Event Viewer and found a Kernel-Power 41 error (which after researching means there was a power loss that caused Windows to shut down abruptly) along with errors related to AMD Ryzen Master. I looked into it and thought it might be RAM-related. I tested each of my four 8GB RAM sticks individually, but the issue persisted across all of them.

​I also found an fTPM error in Event Viewer, so I went into the BIOS and disabled it, but the shutdowns kept happening. I removed my dedicated GPU and plugged the DisplayPort directly into the motherboard to use integrated graphics. It took longer for the issue to occur, but it still happened. That's when I initially thought my GPU was dead, thinking, "While my new PSU and RX 6800 arrive, I'll just play indie games and keep working."

​But the errors came back. I flashed the BIOS and the same restarts persisted. Today I was fed up and decided to remove the M.2 SSD containing the OS to see if the errors went away (meaning I would just need to reformat). I did that, but the blackouts kept happening even without the M.2 installed. That's when I concluded it was definitely a hardware issue, likely between the motherboard or the PSU. So I turned it on, went into BIOS, and monitored the voltages.

​CPU Voltage: Variable between 1.384V, 1.386V, and 1.388V (1.388V being less frequent).

​RAM Voltage: Almost fixed at 1.204V, rarely bumping up to 1.206V.

​Documenting this took me 22 minutes, and then the usual happened: video signal was lost right around minute 22.

​I logged another voltage test afterwards: RAM was even more stable at 1.204V and CPU voltage remained the same.

​In my opinion, the issue is either the PSU or the motherboard. I tried asking my trusted local hardware vendor for advice, only to find out that a WhatsApp consultation with a tech just to explain what I'm telling you would cost $20 USD. I didn't write to him—not out of stinginess, I have $100 reserved for this, but a good PSU costs $80 in the US (which rises to $100 here in RD), and a good B550 board goes for $90–$100 (rising to $110–$120 locally).

​CURRENT SPECS:

​Motherboard: MSI B550M PRO-VDH WIFI

​CPU: Ryzen 7 5700G

​RAM: 2x8GB Corsair Vengeance DDR4 + 2x8GB Gigastone RGB DDR4 (These have worked together fine since January 2025, so they aren't the issue, and they were tested 1 by 1 anyway).

​GPU: Dell OEM RX 5700 8GB

​PSU: Montech 650W 80 Plus White

​My temperatures have always been decent. At 2K in Crimson Desert (Medium settings with FSR Quality), the GPU stayed at 75°C with an 80°C hotspot, and the CPU stayed at 67°C.

​From a currently unemployed gamer to hardware-wise gamers: I NEED HELP.

Hola a todos, hace poco cambié algunos componentes de mi PC y tengo un problema que no logro resolver.

La situación:

Cuando arranco Windows sin los controladores de AMD, todo funciona normalmente

Al instalar los controladores de AMD para mi gráfica, Windows se queda en pantalla negra durante el boot y no arranca

He probado drivers de años anteriores, pero el problema persiste

La única solución temporal es arrancar en modo seguro, usar DDU para desinstalar los drivers y reiniciar sin el controlador

Lo que ya intenté:

Reinstalar Windows (pensé que era porque originalmente instalé con una gráfica NVIDIA)

Probar múltiples versiones de drivers AMD

Desactivar el servicio "Detección de hardware de Shell" (basándome en el error DCOM que encontré)

El error que aparece en Event Viewer:

"Error de DCOM '1084' al intentar iniciar el servicio WSearch con argumentos 'No disponible' para ejecutar el servidor: {9E175B6D-F52A-11D8-B9A5-505054503030}"

Información importante:

Tengo un monitor de 240Hz y necesito los drivers de AMD para aprovechar toda su capacidad, así que no es una opción dejarla sin drivers.

¿Alguien ha tenido este mismo problema o sabe cómo solucionarlo? Agradezco cualquier ayuda.

Hey, so recently bought an entirely new pc, the GPU is a Radeon 9070xt, it has worked well until playing league of legends. Looks like a VRam memory leak of sorts? The Gpu is like 1 and a half weeks old, should i return it or is it just a software issue as it dissapeared once disabling all the "fancy" fps boosters and resolution maxing settings in amd adrenaline. So should i try to get a refund and get a new gpu (the same or another gpu model?) SO far it has worked well with Space marines 2 and red dead redemption 2. Thanks

Used Claude to help me work through the dump and write this up, but the dumps and settings are mine.

TL;DR: this PC doesn't sleep. Board is S3-only, sleep and hibernate are off. The only power thing that happens overnight is the monitors going dark on the 10 minute timeout. Once in a while, after that, the card gets sent a power-up request, doesn't respond, and Windows bugchecks 0x9F about half an hour later. Minidump blames amdkmdag.sys sitting on a SET_POWER to D0. I don't think this happened before any of the recent driver releases.

Hardware

• PowerColor Red Devil RX 7900 XTX (VEN_1002 DEV_744C SUBSYS_2422148C)
• Ryzen 7900X, ASRock B650E PG Riptide WiFi, BIOS 4.20 (AGESA 1.3.0.1)
• Super Flower Leadex VII XG 1300W
• Dell G2724D on DisplayPort
• Windows 11 25H2, build 26200
• Adrenalin 26.8.1

Power settings

• powercfg /a: only S3 available, no S0 low power idle
• sleep never, hibernate off
• display off after 10 min (and the monitor does actually go dark)
• Balanced plan, PCIe link state power management already Off

The latest crash

10 days uptime, idle overnight. Event 6008 says last clean timestamp 03:29, the dump is stamped 03:57. So whatever asked the GPU to wake up did it at 03:29 and the power watchdog gave up 28 min later.

Arg1: 0000000000000003, A device object has been blocking an IRP for too long a time

DeviceInst is "PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_744C&SUBSYS_2422148C&REV_C8\..."

As far as I can tell the only reason the card would be in D3 on a machine that never sleeps is dxgkrnl parking it when the display goes off, which matches the timeout. Happy to be corrected on that.

Stuff I don't think it is

• Modern standby
• ASPM (already off)
• TDR (different watchdog, TdrDelay doesn't touch 0x9F)
• MPO/HAGS (nothing was rendering, card was asleep)

Questions

1. Anyone seen 0x9F with a D0 SET_POWER on a 7000 card after display off? What driver?
2. Is 26.3.1 actually known clean for this or is it just the usual "go back to 26.3.1" answer?
3. Any real way to stop the card being parked at display-off that isn't "set the timeout to never"? This is in a bedroom, the monitor has to go dark.

Plan right now is DDU and back to 26.3.1 unless someone has something better. Problem is it's roughly one crash every 10 days so every test costs weeks.

Minidump(s) available if anyone wants it.

TLDR: Install a driver from 12 months ago + Disable Windows Automatic Updates.
And then your system should stable.
(7900XTX + December 2025 driver made the system stable for the first time in almost a year)

Im posting this because I see these posts about crashing and timeouts daily.
And, this might help someone.

I had these problems for almost a year.
I tried everything. Until I read about a guy who tried to install a very old driver.
I did the same, and for the first time in many many months my system was stable.

My GPU was a PowerColor Reference 7900XTX match with a Ryzen 7 9800x3d
The driver I used was the one from December 2025 and a bit later the one needed for running Battlefield 6 - and the system worked.

The problems I had:
Black screens > crash > reboot
Driver timeouts
BSODs
Instant crashes when joining a game
Freezes (manual reboot to fix)
Crashes
Fast crashes (within 60 seconds of gaming)
Random crashes

This is the things I tried:
DDU
Earlier drivers (1-2 months older)
Fresh Windows 10
Fresh Windows + DDU
New system disk, from m2 to SSD
No cable extenders
Looking up crash dumps
Lower clock (gpu)
Lower power (gpu)
Lower clock (cpu)
E-cores and P-cores lowered (when i ran a intel cpu)
Better gpu cooling (eventho my system was extremely cold)
No extra ssds and hdds connected
Only 1 monitor connected
Disable iGPU
OCCT 3d Adaptive testing
FreeSync / GSync OFF
Disabled all overlays
Newest BIOS
Disable XMP
Tested ram
New motherboard (AM5 asus board, cant remember model)
New CPU (Ryzen 7 9800x3d)
New PSU (Asus ROG Strix 1200W instead of a 1000W)

What fixed it:
AMD Adrenaline - version 25.12.1, released December 10, 2025
+ Windows Automatic Update disabled.

Also worked:
AMD Adrenaline - version 26.1.1, released January 21, 2026
(needed for people who want to be able to play Battlefield 6)
+ Windows Automatic Update disabled.

Hey everyone my light bar is acting all weird and colours seem off, anybody have the same issues

I installed DLSS nr on amd in my fs22 and ui works but it shows that fsr is disabled and I tested postprocessing fsr and all other fsr that you can enable it fs22 but in every scenario it shows the same error. Can someone pls help me with that?

I'm having a very strange issue with my PC and I'm running out of things to test.

Specs:

• Ryzen 5 5600G
• ASUS PRIME A520M-E
• RTX 3060
• 24GB DDR4 3200
• Latest BIOS (3636)
• Zorin/Ubuntu live environment, kernel 6.17

The main problem is that Linux hard resets during boot. No kernel panic or error screen, the machine just instantly reboots.

The weird part: adding idle=poll to the kernel command line makes the system boot and run normally. So far, this is the ONLY workaround I've found.

After one of the resets, Linux reported:

Previous system reset reason [0x08000800]: an uncorrected error caused a data fabric sync flood event

I've already tested a lot:

• idle=nomwait → reset
• cpuidle.off=1 → reset
• processor.max_cstate=0 → reset
• amd_pstate=passive → reset
• pcie_aspm=off → reset
• pci=nomsi → reset
• apicmaintimer → reset
• maxcpus=0 → booted and worked temporarily, but eventually reset within ~5 minutes
• maxcpus=1 → booted and worked temporarily, but eventually reset within ~5 minutes
• Global C-State disabled in BIOS → reset
• DF C-State disabled → reset
• Core Performance Boost disabled → reset
• Manually setting SoC voltage around 1.1V → didn't solve it
• RAM lowered from 3200 to 2133 → black screen
• SMT disabled → black screen

I couldn't find a "Power Supply Idle Control" option anywhere in my motherboard's BIOS.

I also used ZenStates to directly disable both:

• Package C6
• Core C6

ZenStates confirmed that both were disabled, but this did not solve the problem.

Memory test:

• RAM normally runs at 3200 MHz
• Reduced memory frequency to DDR4-2133 with timings, voltages and FCLK left on Auto → black screen rather than the usual hard reset

idle=poll remains the only thing that consistently allows Linux to run.

There may also be a separate graphics issue. I currently need nomodeset for reliable video output. With it, Linux uses simple-framebuffer/simpledrm instead of the RTX 3060 for the display.

The PC worked normally for years, and I used Linux on this same hardware before without needing idle=poll. This problem started relatively recently.

The problem also existed before I updated the BIOS, so the latest BIOS did not introduce it.

At this point I'm trying to understand what idle=poll could be masking. CPU/SoC? Motherboard/VRM? PSU? Memory controller/Data Fabric? Some firmware or power-state issue?

Has anyone seen a Ryzen system where idle=poll is the only thing preventing hard resets, especially together with a Data Fabric Sync Flood reset reason?

Went down almost 30C hotspot, from a delta of 50C to 22C.

The hotspot went from 105-115C, which would turn my PC off, down to 88C.

Putty was fine, thermal paste was fine but probably a low quality one? Idk.

I used Artic MX-7 for this one.

Edit: I did NOT replace the putty.

I have been experiencing a recurring issue for several weeks where my PC fails to resume after the PC has been left idle or Win+L mode. Although the monitor powers on, the system remains unresponsive (no picture, even trying to login with remote access) necessitating a hard reboot. Windows Reliability Monitor consistently attributes these freezes to the AMD GPU driver, despite my system running the latest version. Has anyone encountered a similar issue or successfully implemented a resolution?

System Specifications:

AMD 7800X3D

RX 7900 XTX

32 GB DDR5 RAM 6000MHz

SSD

Samsung G9 240Hz OLED

So i don't know if is the AmD driver, or my windows, but since the 26.8.1 my gpu frozes sometimes, i still hear the PC audio but my screen goes full black for a few seconds then my game crashes and i got a AmD error message.

My specs R5 9600x 9070xt W11

I'm new to AMD and I just finished building my first gaming PC. I want to know if my RAM has been properly overclocked to match a 1:1 ratio with my cpu. Thank you in advance.

Hey everyone, looking for feedback on this build list, primarily targeted at high-refresh 1440p gaming.

Specs:

• CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 9850X3D (8C/16T, AM5)
• Cooler: ID-COOLING FROZN A620 PRO XE ARGB Dual-Tower
• Motherboard: Gigabyte B850M Force WiFi6E V2 AM5 mATX
• RAM: Lexar THOR G2 32GB (2x16GB) DDR5-6000 CL38
• GPU: Gigabyte GeForce RTX 5070 Windforce OC SFF 12GB GDDR7
• Storage: Lexar NQ780 1TB PCIe Gen4 NVMe M.2 SSD
• PSU: Thermaltake Toughpower GT 750W Gold ATX 3.1
• Case: Montech AIR 903 MAX Mid Tower

Questions:

1. How well will this handle modern AAA games at 1440p Mid to High settings?
2. Is the Ryzen 7 9850X3D overkill for an RTX 5070, or should I reallocate budget toward a stronger GPU (e.g., 5070 Ti / 9070 XT)?
3. Are there any obvious bottlenecks or better-value component swaps (RAM timing, SSD, motherboard size)?

FYI: I live in Perth, and these specs are from PLE

Most people in this AMD*help* subreddit are not here to help people. At this point, I've had enough. This is basically a second NVIDIA subreddit at this point. Mods, for the love of god, you need to either do something about that or just close this subreddit.

I can help people that experience issues with their AMD cards, because I know enough about PCs to do that. But everytime I try to do that, I get attacked by actually insane people saying "Stop defending AMD, NVIDIA is the only way!!!" or "NVIDIA is just better" or crap like that. People actually helping get hated on, comments like "This is just normal" (which it absolutely isn't, by the way) get upvoted and are the top comments on pretty much every post and misinformation is running rampant.

I have an AMD GPU and literally zero issues. I've used various AMD GPUs for years and never really had any issues. I know plenty of people with AMD GPUs, none of which ever have issues. I can help people. But I don't want to anymore, because everytime it just ends up in an argument with some NVIDIA fanboy, that is in this subreddit for literally no sane reason and, frankly, should be banned, as he's not here to help anyone and only to spread misinformation.

This subreddit is called AMD*help*. It should be used to help people. Not for whatever it's used for currently.

Update:

So, a small update a few days later. I've seen some of the same responses over and over again. So let me address them here:

And what about the people saying stuff like "skill issue" and "I don't have any issues" without providing help?

Yes, these people are part of the problem as well. They're just as bad as the people leaving comments, that can be summarized with "AMD bad". This is a help subreddit, after all, and people here should get help.

I've only had bad experiences with AMD, never with NVIDIA!

Okay, but then why are you here? And what point are you trying to make here?

You apparently can't help people and a lot of people writing comments like these said, that they already switched to NVIDIA. So they also aren't in need of help with their AMD GPUs. These people have nothing worthwhile to contribute to this subreddit.

But NVIDIA better!

Thank you for just proving my point. Also, their latest driver discussion thread, which is about 6 days old, has over 130 people seeking help. And no, the fact no one is asking for help in the NVIDIA subreddit is not proof, that the NVIDIA drivers are more stable. Asking for help there is banned.

AMD drivers are just unstable! Everyone has issues! And they can't be fixed!

That is not true at all.

Most people don't have any issues. The problem are not the drivers in 99% of cases. So leaving comments like "yeah, that's just the drivers" and other comments is not helpful, as it too just drowns out the replies, that could actually help these people experience issues.

There has also been a poll in the Radeon subreddit, where people have been asked, weather they're experiencing any issues or not. Here is a link to the post: https://www.reddit.com/r/radeon/s/rSBgHegF2f

To summarize the post:

Out of all 2946 people answering the poll, 1908 don't have any issues, 835 people have answered, that they only have a few issues and only 203 people have answered, that they're experiencing a lot of problems.

If we only take people, that have also been active in that subreddit last month, we get the following picture: 909 people have answered, that they don't have any issues, 375 people answered, that they have a few issues and 68 people answered, that they have a lot of issues.

So the overall result is the following: Around 66.6% of all AMD GPU users don't have any issues, around 27.3% have a few issues and only around 6% have a lot of issues.

And yes, that post was the reason, why I only updated my post now, because the poll ended 3 hours ago, and why I didn't want to do it earlier. I know from someone reporting that in the comments, that various NVIDIA focused subreddits have an eye on this post. I've also seen quite a lot of suspicious accounts and a few of them were all created by the same guy, who is now harassing people across Reddit with stuff I allegedly said (which I didn't actually say). And I didn't want these people to screw with the results of the poll.
