RX 5600 XT still unstable even after updating

satipler

I recently finished building my pc and I noticed that my GIGABYTE RX 5600 XT 6gb graphics card is causing my pc to give me the BSOD, and black screen randomly while playing Rainbow Six Siege, and Minecraft Java Edition. I am stumped as to why this is still happening 4 months after the cards release considering I have all drivers up to date for the system. Any support is appreciated since the internet had nothing to offer. I am using an AMD Ryzen 5 1600 af, AORUS B450 PRO WiFi, and 16 gb of Corsair VENGEANCE lpx RAM running dual channel at 3200mhz. Nothing is overclocked except for the RAM.

 this might sound stupid, but i think i read somewhere disabling windows game mode fixes issues with 5600-5700xt cards, just type in search bar game mode and turn it off, its on by default, but also did u download amd chipset drivers, updated motherboard bios and download latest stable driver?

Yeah I downloaded every new driver for the motherboard and the BIOS came on the newest version. I knew this card was unstable upon release but in my opinion this is just ridiculous that they would allow such an unstable card to be sold. And btw I’m not with my pc right now but I will try that “game mode” fix you suggested.

To avoid the hassle, return that card and get a Nvidia.

 

Edit:

The problem isn't the card, the problem is the drivers provided by AMD. Try a older driver may help, but you won't be able to update to the latest one, or hope their future driver update will fix it.

My Gigabyte BIOS only allows 2133mhz (XMP disabled) or 3200mhz (XMP enabled). Does this mean my BIOS is outdated even though I am on the latest one? Also CPU overclocking is not accessible and grayed out idk why.

You will need updated bios or you will have issues with new gpus, always keep bios up to date.

 

Some gigabyte boards have problems with xmp and amd cpus. Have seen it many times

 

So update bios, try it without xmp and report back.
