Constant Crashes with AMD Driver Timeout

[Paper]

I've crashed, so far, at least once on every mission. I'm now stuck on the final mission and cannot progress because the game won't stop crashing. I used DDU, disabled iGPU, got the 24.10.37.10 amd drivers, i lowered the clock to gpu settings. I did everything I could find to do but I still cannot play the game without driver timeout. Anyone have a solution?

Same frigging issue

I have yet to fully test it, but on my 7900xtx I think I may have gotten the game stable so you could try this. Go to your AMD Adrenaline control panel and navigate to Performance->Tuning then under your GPU select Custom under Manual Tuning. Once you do that, there should be a "GPU Tuning" section with an option for Advanced Control, enable that. You'll see a Min Frequency and a Max Frequency. Go and find out what the max boost clock is for your card and set that as the Max Frequency here and apply the changes. My card is the XFX Merc310 7900xtx with a max boost clock of 2615, so I set the max to that frequency. You can find this by just going to the product page for your card by googling or something.

Not sure if it's fully stable but it seems to be working ok for me as of now whereas before I'd have constant drive timeouts at seemingly random sections. It could be that the base default max frequency is over 3000MHz and the game is pushing the card to that frequency and timing out. Try it out, maybe it'll help if you have no other options. The beta drivers didn't work for me but so far this is.

You beautiful human!

This has sorted out my issue as well. I was getting so frustrated that even after the patch my game still wasn't working. I was having the same issue with my Sapphire 7900 xtx, used the same max frequency you mentioned, even though a Google search said it could be higher, and like magic, it started running without crashing (touch wood).

I don't normally post on discussions but wanted to thank you, was this close to admitting defeat and buying it again on PS5.

I also have been trying to fix this the past few days with it crashing about every other operation. I have a 7900xtx sapphire and did this and it has worked for me today for about 5 hours straight so far. Thanks a ton!

No problemo fellas. Make sure to check the adrenaline software if you start having timeout issues again. Adrenaline has a weird habit of resetting all of your tuning settings to default. I heard uninstalling any versions of MSI afterburner you may have installed can help fix this but just a heads up in any case.

I will try the GPU clock solution. While I am not getting constant crashes, When it crashes its near the end of operation and of course the game does not let rejoin and all the mission progress/rewards are lost.

[Hawx04]

Updating BIOS (And GPU driver) fixed crashes for me

[ANGRY MALICE]

The game trolled me hard with the crashes.
The closer I got to the end, the more often it crashed.
I am stuck on the last boss because game crashes before I can finish the fight.
Such a shame.

This worked for me as well! Thank you!

I heard uninstalling any versions of MSI afterburner you may have installed can help fix this but just a heads up in any case.

I have a RX 7600 GAMING OC 8G AMD and the specs are:
Boost Clock* : up to 2755 MHz (Reference card: 2655 MHz)
Game Clock* : up to 2355 MHz (Reference card: 2250 MHz)

So, should I set my max frequency do 2755 or 2655?

Sorry if it is a stupid question and thanks!

Set it to the max boost clock which is 2755, if youre still timing out try lowering it until you don't. The reference card is just the original AMD card's settings. Your card is from Gigabyte, which is still an AMD card, its just been modified a bit to run faster than the original reference card.

Worked just fine with 2500 MHz, no more issues so far! You're a life savior, thanks!

I have 425mbs of VRam and I haven't crashed once.

Get on my level.

[ANGRY MALICE]

Seems like AMD has released a driver fix that I've missed. Does not crash for me anymore.
