Anyone know of any Freesync issues in latest Adrenalin drivers?

Got a new GPU and monitor for Christmas and noticed Freesync was not working. Clean install of latest drivers at the time.

Freesync was enabled but the actual Freesync tech was not working.

Did a little research and nothing came up so clean installed drivers again. Freesync range was only 40-75 so was not a major issue so ignored it till last night when decided to sort it.

After some faffing around and clean install of different driver version, installed the latest Crimson driver and all is now working.

I noticed it wasn't working a couple of drivers ago (18.3.1) so I rolled back at the time but with the latest driver (18.3.3) it seems okay.

F1 2015

Just a quick heads up for anyone who enjoys racing games and doesn't visit the PC games section very often, At the moment Humble Bundle is giving away free Steam codes for F1 2015.

I was on 18.3.1 then clean uninstalled and reinstalled it, still not working then installed 18.3.3, not working.

I then used DDU to remove then installed Crimson.

Maybe worth trying DDU then install 18.3.3

Is it Freesync in general or specific games? Have you a different displayport cable to test with? If it is certain games which ones? If I have them I'll test them here & see if it's the same for me.

Thank you

Your welcome.

Does anyone knows if the issue of Vega with Stellaris is resolved with the latest drivers?

Freesync in general.

I am running over HDMI.

Is running on older drivers so would be surprised if the cable.

I've read that Freesync via HDMI isn't as good as it is via Displayport, Does the monitor support it via HDMI? Not all monitors do. I'd definitely get myself a dp cable if I was you. What are the exact gpu and monitor models you have?

You can check here to see what the monitor supports...

Eh, it says MG279Q is 30-90 Hz FreeSync but it works fine at 57-144 Hz.
