Microsoft® PlayReady AV1 Decode SupportGD-187

AMD Eyefinity support extended to Ryzen™ Mobile 4000 and Ryzen™ Mobile 5000 series.

Fixed Issues

Brightness flickering may intermittently occur in some games or applications when Radeon™ FreeSync is enabled, and the game is set to use borderless fullscreen.

SteamVR™ may experience an application crash when a VR headset is connected on Radeon RX 500 series graphics products.

Some high refresh rate, high resolution TV displays may experience corruption when connected via HDMI on Radeon RX 6000 series graphics products.

Applying changes in Radeon Performance Tuning may sometimes fail to take effect for changes made to power tuning.

Lower than expected performance may be experienced in some CPU intensive workloads or games.

Global performance tuning overclock profiles may sometimes override game specific performance tuning profiles or cause game specific performance tuning profiles to fail to load on a games launch.

Radeon Chill may experience lower than expected performance when a game is left idle for an extended period with Radeon Chill enabled.

Flickering may be observed in Radeon Software performance overlay while playing Cyberpunk 2077™ on Radeon RX 6000 series graphics products.

Known Issues

Enhanced Sync may cause a black screen to occur when enabled on some games and system configurations. Any users who may be experiencing issues with Enhanced Sync enabled should disable it as a temporary workaround.

Connecting two displays with large differences in resolution/refresh rates may cause flickering on Radeon RX Vega series graphics products.

Radeon performance metrics and logging features may intermittently report extremely high and incorrect memory clock values.

Cyberpunk 2077™ may experience shadow corruption on Radeon RX 6000 series graphics when ray tracing is enabled.

Disco Elysium™ may experience texture flickering on trees with Radeon RX 6000 series graphics products.

Radeon Software may experience a crash when Record & Stream tab is in use and a display is hot plugged.

Radeon FreeSync™ may intermittently become locked while on desktop after performing task switching between extended and primary displays upon closing a game, causing poor performance or stuttering. A system restart is a potential workaround if this is experienced.

Performance metrics may incorrectly report temperatures on Ryzen™ 5 1600 series processors.

The download or launch Ryzen Master buttons in Radeon Software may intermittently disappear or may fail to initialize Ryzen Master.

If Ryzen Master is not detected in Adrenalin software after installation, a system restart maybe required.

This one messes up rendering in Wolfenstein The New Order and The Old blood for me. So I assume a lot of IdTech 5 games are affected?

Getting black horizontal and vertical lines on textures, almost making squares.

too bad there isn't an option in minimalist to include overclocking setting etc but no streaming crap.

No dice on experiencing that in the opening section of Rage 1

I have that visual glitch in Rage 1 also, the lines. Screenshots all turn out black though... So for me on RDNA2 it seems to be an IdTech 5 issue. Doesn't happen in DooM (2016) which is IDT6, and I don't have any IDT4 games. Other games seems fine.

Used camera to capture Rage.

Weird as frig then mebbe its only happening on RDNA cards !__!

Probably chalk this up to Falck's bug by komby

What's really funny is that the "mesh look" shows on alpha blended textures, so the torn cloth hanging from the ceiling and moving with the wind has similar mesh look moving further down than what's normally visible.

Hello.
Getting something similar. When using filters etc in Photoshop the blue channel seems missing and the red channel turns purple. Seeing lines as well. Running a RX480.Took me ages to sort out as recently got a new monitor I thought was playing up. Installed previous drivers and all fine now.
never had an issue like this. Weird.

Just loaded up Wolfenstein The New Order and not getting that on my R9 Fury. So all good on my ol GCN based GPU so far.

crashes pc with capture one (photo editing software) with hardware acceleration turned on, totally weird, also affects acdsee that uses hardware acceleration too. Games seems find though. turning hardware acceleration in capture one lets it run fine.


edited: turning hardware acceleration off, works fine in capture one. Crashes my whole system when turned on. Previous drivers no issue.

I see you have RDNA2 as well, and have issues. Would think QA would at least extensively test the latest GPU's with new drivers...

[kkevin666]

Same corrupted colour issues with a new pc running a rx580 as well.

How these are WHQL'ed beggar belief.
