Gears of War Ultimate PC (IMO it's the Gears3)
Then is Gears 4 (finished yesterday)
Now im playing Gears 5.

Next week new driver π

Would be nice, so far with about a week of testing 19.10.2 has been almost up to 19.7.5 in terms of overall robustness with a infrequent black screen but recovery and just load the Wattman profile again and it works just fine.
(Curiously doesn't report as losing the settings but they're defaulted when checking, per testing this does also happen on stock settings so not specific to just having settings modified.)
Considering the symptoms with a corrupted loading/spinner cursor icon, screen flicker, black screen and flashing I wonder if it's losing signal due to something with the scalar or vblank though it needs some more reading up on, testing on a newer display with native Display Port 1.3 or 1.4 would be interesting as would a 120+ Hz forcing a difference in behavior from higher refresh rates and how the later drivers work with these since it forces a different behavior like extra voltage and somewhat higher idle speeds.
(This is a Dell from 2016 using DP1.2 and "10-bit" meaning actually 8-bit + FRC and then the newer 2017 model used native 10-bit but overall from reviews it seems like it's a bit worse.)
It's about time to hit 120 Hz anyway, not something this system can actually reach in terms of FPS though then again hitting 60 without dropping the ultra unoptimized settings down a bit isn't exactly feasible either. π
(EDIT: Meaning just drop the settings they're usually not quite worth it ha ha.)
It's not always like that but I still find it funny the GPU performance impact from volumetric clouds in Assassin's Creed Odyssey goes up to around 60% towering above earlier big impact settings like shadows or issues with too high draw distances.
(Still a near 20% or so change just from V.High to Ultra with whatever it actually changes being near impossible to actually see although this last part isn't exactly uncommon for High to V.High and especially vaunted Ultra settings or other names for these.)
Bit extra voltage stabilized Outer Worlds though the game itself is very prone to just crashing but it's no longer taking DWM with it heh.
(The Fallout 3 and New Vegas experience again I guess, well it can be patched assuming it's not a platform specific issue with the Win10 Store version. π )
Media playback works too with the current limits and bugs here and of course the ongoing issue with lower settings clock speed scaling and particularly D3D9 overall and a few specific games where it either scales down almost to idle or just crashes even although Borderlands 3 is a odd recurring example although I do not own it myself and UE4 can be prone to not-quite-100% stable overclocks or undervolts both so that might be part of it.
(Think Frostbite was also a common popular stability test far as game engines go, synthetic benchmarks are a good first impression but even stress tests shouldn't be considered granted for stability and reliance.)
19.11.1 could start seeing these remaining little issues fixed, though it's still up in the air for the regressions for Polaris and Vega and ongoing known issues and stability problems though also not a 100% thing affecting everyone so not sure what's going on here.
EDIT: Well in my case Vega worked until I had a moment of let's just start building the next system and slotted in the 5700XT around 19.9.1 other than the limitations with the fan curve that is more like a stepping and has reduced max temperature limits.
EDIT: Ah there's that cursor corruption issue, bit different but something in the drivers seeing how it (At least here.) only occurs past 19.7.5 whatever it could be.

They've definitely improved performance on MW 2019. I lowered the resolution scaling a bit and I'm getting over 200 FPS now. That's an all time 1st. With RIS it looks just as good at default res.
But why doesn't Radeon Settings Game Explorere auto etect ModernWarfar.exe? I had to manually add it to Game Explorer.

What i can see, some of You have problems with Navi uArch.
One TIP tho, remeber it's new Architecture so all of this drivers are Betas at best π
Pick Your poison and test new ones cuz' it will get better in time for sure.

I'm starting to consider myself lucky as I have a Sapphire 5700 XT Pulse and mainly play Rage 2,Assassins Creed Origins, Trine 4,Grid 2019, Forza Horizons 4 with no noticeable problems always with the latest games. Also using Sapphire Trixx 7.0 to invoke the 80-85% screen modes to make use of the image sharpening. The only thing I have noticed is many games fail to start or even crash/reset the system if Radeon Anti-Lag is on in Radeon settings, setting this to on with the Alt+L keys once the game is started works fine for me

^^ and update Your profile π

The black screen issue with multiple monitors on my vega has been a problem for a while. I usually restart the driver using the CRU restart tool and everything works fine but this driver has made things 10 times worse.
Was just playing rocket league and my secondary monitor (TV) went to sleep, the game completely freaked out making me think the card was dead. Came back to normal after I turned the TV back on.
Enough is enough. I been team red for as long as I can remember but been looking for a new card recently. Unfortunately I'm going to have to switch to the evil side for a while. After reading issues with the 5700 driver I'm not going near that.
Hopefully AMD will invest in some decent driver devs as the current lot are a waste of time. I no longer have faith, if they can't fix such an issue I don't really have confidence in anything else they do.
Sorry for posting this as I really am a red fanboy but enough is enough now.
And before anyone says, yes I did DDU prior to installing this POS.

Horrible driver for Radeon VII! The memory is reaching speeds of 1500mhz (wtf?) on the desktop and won't drop under 1000mhz. π±
Back to previous driver for me.

Can't be bothered.

find it a great driver for my Radeon vii. Yes memory do clock higher, but my voltage and temps is same as previous. My memory only clocks to 1200Mhz on average,

The driver might have brought back the Chromium / Chromium Engine Framework hardware acceleration as a regression from the fix in19.10.1 so software like Chrome, Discord, Uplay, Steam and others could cause a driver crash but so far I've only read reports on Discord itself though it might just be from the software being so popular so it shows up more from how many users have it installed and running.
Disabling hardware acceleration if possible should fix it if that's the problem, general driver crash and reset and it'll recover or can be made to recover (Like the Navi black screen display loss issues.) via that hotkey but if it's hanged such as with the sound loop issue before that buffer or cache runs out and stops then it's not going to work without a restart.
