AMD crash fix 100% working

[Dax Moon]

After being able to reproduce this issue consistently, it has to do with some instruction from the game that pushes the GPU to 100% and makes the gpu clock want to run away (+3ghz on a 7900XTX). That is why setups (including mine) with undervolt/OC crash more frequenly and some people have reported that returning to default profile fixes the issue. The same happens by reducing intensive GPU settings like AA or SSGI. The system becomes unstable and the amd driver crashes

The fix that I found that works (playing 10 hours without crashing) is to select a custom OC profile on amd adrenalin tuning tab, push the mV setting all the way to the right (1150mv for my 7900xtx), increase power limit to 5% or 10% if your temps take it without excessive fan rpms, this will prevent the GPU to become unstable if there is a clock spike, and more importantly: DO NO LET YOU GPU REACH 100% USAGE. Keep it between 70-80%, there are several ways to do this: use vsync to cap your framerate, if you have a high refresh monitor cap your fps to 60 with radeon chill (min fps 60, max fps 60) or rivatuner, do not run native resolution and use the upscaler to lower the gpu load. you can enable AA and SSGI and enjoy the candy eye, these ARE NOT FIXES as reported by other users, its just another way to lower the gpu load.

For my particular rig, I run a 4k 120hz monitor, so vsync is not an option, just capped the framerate to 60 fps and run ultra quality upscaler, my gpu stays within 70% to 80% usage, have not had a single crash in 3 days.

Happy freedom and democracy delivery citizens

Sir, I believe you are onto something!

I have similar setup 7900XTX with 4K 120hz display. My GPU is an OC version. Tried different fixes. Simply turning off SSGI and AA did not help, but...

After I dropped settings to high/mid with FSR balanced, locked to 60 through Adrenalin with AMD Chill, I also noticed the following.
The game always runs at 60 FPS with GPU usage around 60% and 150-160W, but sometimes (mostly after mission during reward screens) it spikes to 95% and 360+ W power usage and FPS goes to 170+ DESPITE AMD Chill being active!

As you say, it is probably some instruction that pushes the GPU to its absolute limits, what causes game to crash.

So basically you have to adjust the settings so that you have enough overhead for this spikes. So far with my new settings and spikes up to 95% I played 3 mission (2 solo, 1 quick game) around 2h combined playtime and had a single crash after leaving the quick game party (I believe this crash has to do with quick game and not GPU, at least hope so).

yeah thats too much tinkering

[BoxKid]

Still had a crash with my 7900xtx, but it allowed for a few rounds.

[RoboGerbil]

running a 7600. these settings didnt even touch it. still crashing bad.

[Enderzworld]

Made these changes on my 7900 XTX and still having pretty frequent crashes. I can almost predict when a crash is going to happen.

Really wish this would be fixed, because I really want to play this game!!!

[lozerg]

Same problem for me. Hope for a fix.

are you playing 1440p or 4k?
I ask because i play on 4k but since it was running at 70 fps and i like games to run 90 or above i decreased the resolution to 1440p and I do crash sometimes but never on 4k, its all weird.. i have to turn off global ilumination no matter resolution else i crash every couple minutes...

Thanks, This worked for me. Now i get to spread democracy across the system.

7900xtx not work for me still crashes. :feelsbadman:

[Urban_225]

I'm having crashes too...it's really annoying this 7900 XTX, it's not stable at all, it's not the first game where I've had this problem.

Readon Chill is not for the FPS limit. The basic idea behind Readon Chill is to limit the FPS when there is hardly any movement on the monitor.

[Lobo86er]

still crashing ....

While it's true that isn't the intended purpose, you can use it for that. You set the Min/Max values to match, and it's functionally the same thing.

7900xt

Graphics at native 3440x1440 preset to lowest settings and haven't crashed in a a couple runs

7900XTX, running 4K ultra, couldn't get through Tutorial without getting the black screen driver timeout. Disabled just the global illumination as the dev suggested in their ongoing issues post and then did 3 missions, hasn't crashed yet. We shall see.
