The AMD Driver Thread

[shankly1985]

i really hope one day they will fix the flickering in fifa 18 during cut scenes its been going on for a longtime now and was even present in 17 for me also, it's literally the only game i have this problem with and on two different cards too my 480 and the vega 64. never had the issue in game with my two 1060's, 1070 or 1080. so it it really is a amd issue.

This with Freesync monitor? What in game settings you have FPS set to? 30 or 60fps on cutscene with drop FPS to 30fps the unlimited option with not do this but you will need to force Vsync or use FRTC to limit FPS to monitor max refresh rate.

yeah freesync bud and unlocked fps. av just started looking away till i push button after scoring goals as sometimes its right unbearable almost epileptic foot inducing. i just tried what you said with frtc and it was still present unfortunately. its the game i play the most that is why its getting to me so much..really annoying.

What Freesync Range do you have? if its like mine 40-144hz try this crazy has it sounds it fixed a low fps issue I was having with FIFA 18 Demo. Go into game settings and use 30fps setting for me it didn't set at 30fps when Freesync was enabled. But it removed the low fps bug.

I download the demo again so I can explain it better.

i think its 30-144hz if i remember correctly. its a aoc g2770pf monitor. i'll give it a bash.

Yep the 30fps setting still works for me. It doesn't reduce the FPS to 30fps instead with Freesync enabled I also have Enhanced-sync on also the game will run at a solid 72fps half refresh rate from 144hz

I also had an issue with FIFA 17 but with that game I couldnt run Freesync at all.

Its the only game series I have had a issue where Freesync as actual messed with the frame rate.

The game also seems to play so much smoother at a locked 72fps than unlocked, its like the animations just look smoother.

i just noticed i typed epileptic foot lmao..wow.

Hi folks
I´m new here

So this is my first post in this forum.
I buy new graphics a Vega 56 and I very happy I love ATI/AMD graphics cards, but
I'm getting very disappointed with AMD.
I'm tired of reporting problems with my graphics card
Already tried with a new installation of windows 10 with both version 1709 and 1703 and continue with the same problems.

Issues:
when I stop playing any game my screen begins to flickering and this issue not have in previous drivers. (issues with 17.12.2 18.1.1 and 18.2.1)
Sometimes Arma 3 and Call of Duty Infinite Warfare lockup my computer with black screen and high pitch sound playing continously. My GPU isn't responding anymore, and the driver isn't restarting, or anything. I have to restart my pc. (17.12.1 and all previous drivers)
Sometimes when I stop playing a game or surfing on the net with Firefox Quantum and watch videos on Youtube my vega 56 will not idle and GPU usage and clocks may remain in high states (17.10.1 17.10.2 17.11.1 17.11.2 17.11.4 17.12.1) I do not know if it happens with 17.12.2 18.1.1 and 18.2.1.
I try DDU and same.
Back to 17.12.1 most stable but with sporadic black screens in so far with Arma 3 online and Call of Duty Infinite Warfare.

Hello and Welcome to OCUK Forums
I'll start of with the PSU and how you connected the GPU and PSU I recently just fixed issues just like yourself "Driver crashes, Black Screens and Display Corruption"
The fix for me was I was using PCIe power cable extensions these must have become faulty. Plugging the GPU directly into the cables that come with the PSU fixed my issue.

What PSU do you have?
Are you also using Power extensions?
Do you have a PSU that you can change the power cables some spear in the PSU box?

I don´t think is my PSU is the cause I use the proper cables of the PSU.
I going to try to put seperate cables to connect my card.

Yes 100% Use two 8pin cables.
I wouldnt have guessed my PSU was the problem either by chance I found a post on Youtube. The blackscreen and loud fan is because the GPU has lost power.

@AMDMatt Next update for Relive software we really need to be able to record more than one main audio device Can you pass on message to RTG Multi Audio Device Recording = top priority ? haaa

Thanks

 

[TonyTurbo78]

And get the recording in Relive a lot better when playing at over 100fps and recording only at 60 .
