Radeon Link not connecting to devices running Android 9 Pie has been fixed. Radeon ReLive not properly recording DirectX 12 games on R9 290 and R9 390 series GPUs has been fixed. A cursor lag noticed on multi-display systems with one of the monitors turned off has been fixed. The Radeon Settings context-menu item not appearing after driver installation has been fixed. Grab the drivers from the link below.

Are these any more stable then the 18.6.x, 18.7.x, and 18.8.x branches? Because I have to keep 18.5.1 installed to fix AMD's garbage lately.

Those were all stable for me with 0 crashes. This one's been stable so far as well. Windows 10/Vega 56.

Very bad VR performance and crashes on the FuryX. Will post screenshot after work. So far best driver for the FuryX is 18.5.1
