9070xt potential driver issues
Hey,
I just got my ASUS TUF Gaming Radeon RX 9070 XT OC (idk if the exact model is important) and my PC is freaking out.
Specs:
On Windows 11
- Ryzen 7 5700x
- 16GB DDR4
- RTX 3060 Ti (before)
- B450-A PRO MAX (maybe the mobo is the problem?)
- PURE POWER 13 M 1000W
Sometimes Chrome is lagging, freezing and then crashing just from opening 1 Tab.
Sometimes a black screen for a few seconds and then its crashed.
Graphics acceleration isnt making it better or worse.Cinebench R26 "freezes" when i start the GPU benchmark, sometimes i can press stop but then i get a black screen again and cinebench crashes with and without a bug report which, when i open it, gives me a Black screen again.
My pc however never crashed completely. The apps start to lag, crash and give me black screens all the time.
I used DDU with and without an internet connection in safemode and even without i uninstalled the old NVIDIA drivers like 3 times and the amd drivers like 4-5 times. Im trying the 26.3.1 version now cuz i thought maybe its just the newest driver but im still experiencing the same issues.
I read that its probably a faulty gpu driver (thats why im trying an older version) but slowly im thinking maybe the GPU itself is defect?
I ran furmark and everything was fine, good performance, pulled 330w its not getting too hot.
Game performance generally is good but games like GTA 5 Enhanced or RDR2 sometimes give me the error that i dont have enough memory (vram) and it just crashes but sometimes its fine.
I cleared the windows directX cache and it seemed to help a little with GTA 5 and RDR2 but the black screening for a few seconds or the lagging/freezing didnt stop.
I was really excited for the upgrade but rn its more frustrating than anything else. Im considering returning the 9070xt and getting a 5070 instead. Although i would really like to use the 9070xt for the better performance.
I hope someone has a solution
Thank you!
