    Still no progress on the RX 7000 cards crashing constantly and without obvious reason. It’s been on the known issues page on the AH website since launch.

      For now, the most effective method to preventing this issue is to limit core clocks on NV31 to about 2500 MHz.

      I believe this is under the known issues for Adrenalin

        I set mine to 2555 because of Star Citizen (and Ratchet & Clank, but I finished that game a while ago), so I’ve had no issues with HD2 since the first week or so of release. Can confirm it works.

          Interesting, were rachet and clank + star citizen also failing in the same way (intermittent TDRs or system shutdown) with default gfx core clocks?

            In my case it manifested as a graphics driver crash. This would bring down anything that was using the GPU: the game, discord, Windows DWM.

            Someone on SC`s forums did a bunch of research and eventually suggested the clock limit, which has solved all my SC, HD2, R&C issues and most of my War Thunder issues (though that one still silently deletes itself from RAM occasionally, but I think that’s just War Thunder).

              Sorry, I take a bunch of acronyms for granted. TDR = timeout detection / recovery.

              Did the bug report tool suggest there was a timeout in each of those cases?

                I forget, it’s been a while. I want to say yes, but the screen would freeze for several seconds before the GPU driver reset in my case, so that seems like a legitimate timeout to me. I had tried increasing the timeout in the past to fix these issues, before I found this method.

                While testing I did confirm using OpenHardwareMonitor that the GPU core frequency would spike above 3100Mhz before crashing, as the thread describes. Setting the max to 2550 seems to prevent this happening.
