Can you try disabling Windows Game DVR and full screen optimisations for one of your games and see if that fixes it?

Spoiler

Is this a part of Win 10?
Where can I find it please? I've looked but had no luck, I'm using Win 10 Pro.

Downloaded new driver, game I'm playing the most at the minute Conan Exiles has flickering texture bug which wasn't occurring on 18.4.3

 

[ED209]

Has anyone tried the latest drivers with the 2200G? I am waiting for my new 2200g to drive as it was sent back to OCUK as a RMA, due here on the 29th with the bank holiday

 

[LtMatt]

Anyone using a Ryzen APU, please make sure you keep updating to the latest Motherboard BIOS, should fix various issues that have been reported, and of course use the latest display drivers.

 

[ED209]

Still on the latest bios for my gaming 3 (F23D), getting my replacement 2200g tomorrow so will install it then.

Is the issue with Subnautica (and apparently other unity engine games) since 18.5.1 being worked on? It crashes almost immediately on startup of the game.

It rings a bell, so most likely yes.

Still on 17.11.4 and wont be bothering with any of these drivers until i see the word 'DayZ' in the release notes.

None of these Adrenalin drivers run well for me anyways.. but i'm thinking about switching to a Ryzen 2700x soon so maybe they will work fine with a fresh Win 10 install, will be glad to dump Intel after the performance i keep losing with all the patches and BIOS updates.

Is driver 17.11.4 fine with DayZ?

I just know it gets me the highest 3DMark GPU score out of all i have tested, it works with DayZ as good as any other driver but DayZ stutters with all of them anyway.. Early Access for yer though.
