They are really plugging away at finding and fixing black screen issues.
 
First release without win 7 support?

Edit: These drivers hardlocked my system on install. Recovered fine though.

lol @ people who had a black screen issues. I'm not the one of them. I never had encountered any black screen on my few previous GPU drivers as well as current 20.4.2 WHQL. I will install 20.5.1 for 2004 Update soon.
 
I installed these just a couple days ago. Everything went fine installing.
The only issue I've come across was on Sat we were playing some coop Seige on Comp#1 and 2 or 3 times during the 2 hours of gaming the screen went black for a second or two. Came back and was fine.
Didn't see this on previous driver and actually never seen this but.. haven't played the game for a few weeks so maybe it was a UBI update???
Seems odd that this is a known issue they're working on and I never had it until this version. Sheesh.
Before I revert to older driver I thought I check to see if anyone else is experiencing this and/or is what they're talking about in the release notes known issues.
 
Is anyone else having issues with custom tuning settings reverting right after you change them?

For instance, when I change voltages and hit apply, two seconds later they're back to where they were. If I disable Manual GPU tuning and get the percentage slider, hit apply, two seconds later it goes back to manual and brings up the voltage/clock stages.

Yep same issue here.

I've just been saving a profile and editing the xml file to get the clocks and voltages I want.

Sometimes it accepts the changes when i hit apply and sometimes when I've been testing a bit it starts acting up again.
 
Yeah same here crashes and resets even if I just change the default fan setting.
A clean install install didn't help other than reducing multiple crashes by deleting the previous driver created profiles.

I thought it was originally caused by the spate of unstable Fah projects.

I don't use tuning setting in the Radeon Setting. I just use overdriveN tool. Worked fine for me.
