I believe they said Q4 2023 so we are not there yet.

Looks like we are getting some nice improvements in general with new features and bug fixes. I will go ahead and try these out.

I had problems with these drivers. On a Sapphire 6700xt, I can go to Youtube, slect a video. Press full screen. Then unselect fullscreen, and I get a black screen for about 10 seconds, then I get like 1/2 a frame in 5 seconds. Audio still works, though.

i've seen some reports on reddit of RDNA 2 users having some issues with these.

Interestingly, I had some issues with these latest drivers in COD MWII. Game kept crashing, just a few minutes in, still in menus even. Turns out the new Hyper RX profile has issues with the game, and on the AMD forums someone said to turn those features off to fix it. I went to default profile, games plays fine now. Do note of course, this is on my 7900 XTX which is RDNA3.

Overall stability isn't good on a RX6800, getting random driver resets & crashes in games. Also the black screen bug is kinda back, random 0.5/1/2sec black screens. Reverted back to previous driver, problems go away.

Good find.

I have no intention of using Hyper RX so it always off for me.
