just updated to these as i've been playing spiderman this morning great game
 
I think i will wait...
 
Very unstable driver just like 22.7.1 where the recommended stable drivers, if personally experienced black screens that have been reported by others as well from my understanding tho they are still investigating it, also some fixed issues aren't fixed while being reported to be fixed, altho i personally use firefox so if never really noticed issues with videos being blurry etc
 
22.7.1 has been perfectly stable for me. PPD went way up in f@h on my 6800 XT.
 
I am on 22.7.1 and when 22.8.1 becomes the default I will probably download it.
 
There are the Radeon Pro for Enterprise drivers.
 
Working fine and stable for me.
 
22.7.1 was a bork fest for me so ended up going back to 22.6.1 I'll give these a try later tonight I hope they aren't just a shite fest of fuckups like 22.7.1

22.6.1 was total crap for me, so far 22.7.1 works for me.

Its weird how so many people have so many different issues with different drivers for AMD.

Think it depends on what apps or games they run. I know with a game like Wolfenstein II: The New Colussus, its optimised for AMD cards. Into that now & its the most smoothest game I've ever played in my life @ 1440p/144hz Ultra settings, solid ALL the way through.
 
I'm still using 21.8.2 version, feeling pretty good. Looking for a version that's worth upgrading.

Either the 22Q2 pro drivers if you want absolute stability or the latest WHQL set either will work fine

Are you sure it's not your card or something that has issues when others don't really have a lot of issues?

Personally with my RX 6800 XT Red Devil I don't have any weird issues with AMD's drivers running 4K@144Hz,

Still I feel like you are the only one that keeps complaining that every driver update after 22.7.1 has been bad for you.

So maybe I am just dum here having tried RX 6800 XT on AMD Ryzen 9 3900X and now Intel Core i7-11700K with the same Windows 11 Pro install only used DDU when changed from AMD to Nvidia and back.

I don't troll around, and my Windows 11 is actually a update from Windows 10.

Your feelings are not facts. The user is correct. Just because you don't seem to have issues doesn't mean others don't and I see constant stream of complaints on reddit and amd forums on driver issues for various people.
 
22.7.1 working like a charm for me. See no reason to update.
And that's very logical, there is absolutely no need to update drivers every month (if it ain't broke dont't fix it)
